When Buffalo Bills quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick hit Stevie Johnson in the hands, in stride as the Bills were trying to make a last-minute comeback Sunday in a loss to the Jets, the incompletion counted as a drop.
"When I beat the safety, as a wide receiver not seeing the quarterback, you expect certain types of balls," Johnson told the media Monday. "Say you’re over top of me I would expect the ball like that and turn around and try to body that but how I beat him I would assume the ball would be a little more down the field.
"Right when I turned around if I had superhuman instincts I would have made the play and I didn’t. At the end of the day it is a drop. I just wish I had turned faster."
So basically, Fitzpatrick was to blame.
We'll see how many Bills fans buy that one.
