I wanna throw down another one of my favorite moments of '09; but, before I do, go ahead catch up on the others I've mentioned by checking out the links below...

So what's another favorite moment of mine from '09? ...I'm gonna have to go with my first turnover of the season against the New York Jets.  Even though we lost the game, I can't help but hang on to the memory of that Sunday, because that one play was able to ignite what I feel was a pretty impressive season of me disrupting offenses.

Performance droughts suck, and going into that game I was certainly experiencing one in the turnover department.  If I remember correctly, it had been exactly one year since my last forced turnover, and that ain't nothing to be proud of.  I pride myself on my ability to make the ball change hands, so to go 365 without an instance of doing so, hurts the ego juuuuuust a little bit.

I ended my drought with a forced fumble as a Jet (I forgot who) was on his way into the end zone.  He would have scored, but I popped the ball out of his hands on the one yard line, where we then recovered it for a touchback.  The momentum I gained from that turnover was enough to get the ball rolling for what was a pretty good season of stealing footballs.  I believe each of the following five games had one of my turnovers attached to them, so, needless to say, I was back to my old, thievin' self again.
