TEAMS: Jacksonville Jaguars, Buffalo Bills
The Bills are doing just enough to keep it interesting for their fans. Playoffs are still a long shot, but as Lloyd Christmas would say, “So you’re saying there’s a chance?!”
Here are things I “Billieve” following Buffalo’s 34-18 victory over the Jacksonville Jaguars.
1. I may owe Dave Wannstedt an apology.
No one wanted Wannstedt fired more than me earlier this year. The defense was a disaster.
No one was getting to the quarterback.
The linebackers were consistently out of place, and the defensive backs gave up big plays consistently.
Most of all, the defense was giving up 30+ points consistently.
Now?
Mario Williams has been incredible following his wrist procedure and notched another sack and forced fumble to his resume. Kyle Moore is applying consistent pressure to the QB, and Marcell Dareus is finally playing solid football. Kyle Williams has been excellent all season and Alex Carrington has provided excellent depth.
Linebackers are suddenly filling gaps correctly and Nigel B...

Bills’ Ryan Fitzpatrick leads five consecutive scoring drives in win vs. Jags
Buffalo Bills WB Ryan Fitzpatrick kept the Bills very very slim playoff hopes alive, leading his team on five consecutive scoring drives to knock off the Jacksonville Jaguars 34-18.
While his numbers weren’t all that great, 9 for 17, 112 yards, 2 TDs and INT, they don’t quite tell the whole story. Sure it was against a struggling team like Jacksonville, but he persevered without...
Bills release LB Morrison to make room for OL help
The Buffalo Bills have released veteran linebacker Kirk Morrison, who became the odd-man out on a team needing to fill holes on a banged-up offensive line.
The move was announced Monday, shortly after coach Chan Gailey said the Bills were contemplating making a roster move to free up space after losing two starting linemen in a 34-18 win over Jacksonville.
Center Eric Wood (left...
“Not Chan Gailey’s Style” Bills fans make “Gangnam Style” parody
The Buffalo Bills aren’t doing a whole lot right these days and as they should be, fans aren’t all that happy. The organization doesn’t know their head from their feet regarding starting quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick and apparently has no clue that third-year running back CJ Spiller is one of the most dynamic ball-toters in the league.
Instead of spending their $75 and making...

Bills' Mario a brand new player since wrist surgery
Turns out, Mario Williams wasn't lying about the effect his early-season wrist ailment was having on his play.Through the first half of the season, Williams looked like a guy who signed a $100 million contract and didn't feel the need to earn it. But at the time, he was battling a wrist injury and had surgery at the bye week. Before the bye, Williams recorded 3.5 sacks,...

Bills' 'backup' tailback carries offense in win over Jax
Things are a whole lot easier when the Buffalo Bills have enough carries to spare between their two No. 1-caliber running backs. A stout defensive showing and ground-and-pound-friendly weather Sunday eliminated any urgency with the Bills' offense, and 186 rushing yards between Fred Jackson and C.J. Spiller was the result in a 34-18 victory over the Jacksonville Jaguars. “We...
