    No Interceptions For Byrd, Where Is Jim Leonhard?

    Byrd had an average game, but he didn't make a, "big play."

    If there was ever a game that I thought Byrd would have had a pick in, today was it against Alex Smith but it didn't happen.

    Leonhard was calling the defensive secondary plays when he was on the field, and the Bills had a lot of INT's.

    It seems like ever since Jim Leonhard got benched the Bills defense hasn't taken the ball away much at all.

    Alex Smith has thrown 4 INTs this entire year and he has lost ZERO games.

    I would kill to have him on this team.

    Not sure I understand the hate.

    Smith is the ultimate game manager QB in this league.

    About 20 teams would love to have him on the roster.

    He simply doesn't make mistakes.

    It's a by-product of having a cast of mediocre/poor rookie QBs. Between the first two and their habitual fumbles and Tuel's tragically big mistake throws, it's bound to happen.

    true, but we're also no longer creating any!

    When Leonhard was on the field calling the plays, the Bills came up with more turnovers.

    Byrd wants to be paid like the best safety in the NFL, but his secondary didn't come up with a single pick today.

    Re: No Interceptions For Byrd, Where Is Jim Leonhard?

    Yeah, I'm about done will "ballhawk Byrd", journeyman Leonhard plays better than he does, please don't franchise Byrd again, it's time for him to go elsewhere.

    They were all over Smith and nothing happened. I really like Smith and figure he's earned his moments, but it looked to me like Byrd made one good tackle and otherwise floated like a Tuel pass. Leonhard, being Leonhard at this point of his career, is more of a fabled ballhawk than the floater.

    Should have traded him before the deadline, hopefully somebody will want him this off-season.

    Are we really blaming Byrd? He was fine. The whole defense minus Gilmore played well today.

    The only reason Alex Smith exists as an NFL quarterback is because he limits mistakes. The defense gave up three points that didn't come off turnovers today.

    The pick six was the story of the game.

    I think we should just draft a safety with our first round pick.

    And let him walk after five years of pro-bowl play so we can draft another.

    He should of taken the Bills offer. The way he's playing he won't get the same offer next offseason.

    Exactly! He screwed himself out of millions and there aren't many more games to go before the season ends. If he doesn't step it up in the back half of the schedule, which I don't think he will, he'll be lucky to get top 10 safety pay.
