Atlanta Falcons 13, Buffalo Bills 10
The Buffalo Bills offense was stuck in neutral last night except for the performance of rookie QB Trent Edwards. Edwards completed 11 of 16 passes for 101 yards with a TD pass to Roscoe Parrish. J.P. Losman didn’t fare as well as Edwards did as he completed 7 of 13 passes for 78 yards. First round pick Marshawn Lynch made a brief appearance as he rushed for 16 yards on 5 carries (3.2 ypc). Fred Jackson is a long shot to make the team at running back but he was busy last night. He carried the football 9 times for 22 yards (2.4 ypc) and he also caught 3 passes for 31 yards (10.3 avg). WR Roscoe Parrish had a solid game at WR grabbing 3 passes for 26 yards and a TD. The offense as a hole didn’t produce good numbers last night as they carried the football 22 times for 69 yards (3.2 ypc) and they completed 18 of 29 passes for 158 yards. They must get the offense going as they are only three weeks away from playing a game that counts.
The defense kept the Bills in the game which is not a surprise based on the offensive players that the Falcons ran out on the field. The Falcons wound up running the football 33 times for 118 yards (3.6 ypc) and they completed 19 of 33 passes for 166 yards.
