Bills home game vs Rams sells out

Posted December 05, 2012 on AP on Fox
TEAMS: Buffalo Bills,  St. Louis Rams,  New York Jets
The Buffalo Bills home game against the St. Louis Rams on Sunday has sold out after a local restaurateur committed to purchasing the remaining tickets. The Bills announced on Wednesday that Russell Salvatore, of Russell's Steaks, Chops and More, had stepped in to prevent the game from being blacked out on local television. The Bills had said last week that there were more than 10,000 tickets unsold. Salvatore called this his holiday gift to Bills fans. The Bills (5-7) and Rams (5-6-1) remain on the fringes of the playoff hunt. Buffalo's home game against Jacksonville last Sunday did not sell out. And there are thousands of tickets unsold for Buffalo's season finale against the New York Jets on Dec. 30.

Flash back to August for a moment. The defense was expected to serve as the primary strength for the Bills in 2012. While question marks lingered at linebacker and in the defensive backfield, the revamped defensive line was expected to be the centerpiece of an elite unit. Flash forward to week 13 and the Bills defense is still digging out from the bottom portion of the league’s...
