Micah Hyde int on 4th down

[CorkScrewHill]

4th down incompletion gives us better position and Hyde catches it instead of knocking it away. I initially thought that was not a smart play .. you can see in the video that Poyer questions him Hyde responds and they both start laughing. Hyde entered the game at 3 INTs and needed 5 to get a $500,000 bonus.

 

if you watch the video I am pretty certain that was the dialogue … good for you Micah!

Poyer: “WTF”

Hyde: “That’s half a stack!”

[Warcodered]

Eh, I blame Mac Jones weak ass arm for our poor field position there, couldn't even get it into the endzone so we'd start on the 20.

[Hsker4life]

I thought Poyer was giving him hell for stealing his INT.
 

Seriously, how many times have you seen defenders intentionally drop an easy INT on 4th down to preserve field position? 

[947]

That's awesome. I was watching the game with my son, and after the INT, he asked why me Hyde didn't knock it down. I said maybe he has a contract bonus for INT totals, without actually knowing if that was the case. Now I'm the smartest dad in the world...

Hyde did last year in the playoff game against the Colts. Wasn't for field position but it was a hail mary at the end of the game

yep. They finally learned after giving up two Hail Marys to Murray and Herbert. This one didn’t matter because of the score but hopefully they haven’t forgotten the right play.

[MJS]

The game was already basically won at that point. I would have gone for the INT as well.

 

The only iffy thing was it didn't leave a ton of room to kneel it down. Oh well. I'm glad he got an INT. These guys work hard and deserve to get the individual stats sometimes.

[GunnerBill]

Hahaha. I thought the same in the game - knock it down, Josh was having to kneel very quickly on the resultant kneel downs. But Micah deserves his bonus. Good for him.

[nucci]

it was a very easy catch

[jwhit34]

I liked it because it made Mac Jones' stat line look worse 14-32 with 2 ints. vs. 14-32 with 1. 

 

And I agree on all the other points made, game was won, tough to bat down a gimme int. in the moment, etc. 

[JMF2006]

1/2 million good reasons to me

[CSBill]

Money talks.

[Doc]

Ah, that makes sense. Sometimes they just instinctively catch it instead of knocking it down so I wasn’t sure why he did it. But in that situation, it was fine for him to catch it since all they had to do was kneel-down. 

[BillsFanSD]

If anybody on our defense deserves to get paid, it's our safeties.  Good for Hyde.

[RunTheBall]

Yeah I was pretty sure there was a bonus attached because Hyde is too smart to do that and I’m sure had it been earlier in the game he would have swatted it.

 

Wasn’t worried about the kneel down at all because as much as I hate (and respect) the Hoodie, he’s not the type of guy to charge a victory formation.

I think it was more like you just stole MY interception!

[Shortchaz]

Two interception games are rare, so why not, was my initial take.

:Lol: .. wait until your son enters teendom … you’ll quickly become the stupidest dad in the world  

[SlimShady'sSpaceForce]

A missed tackle could = 6 points immediately 

 

the incomplete = 0 immediate points 

and INT’s by the Bills are so much more exciting
