Bills RB Fred Jackson is ahead of schedule in his return from a knee injury, coach Chan Gailey revealed on Thursday.

Jackson has done some light work alongside trainers during practices this week and is moving well after suffering a knee sprain in Week 1 against the New York Jets.

“Yeah, he is [ahead],” Gailey said. “He must be a fast healer.”

Jackson was initially expected to miss 1-2 months of action. On Monday, CBSSports.com's Jason LaCanfora reported that Jackson may now miss only 3-4 weeks, which looks like a more reasonable expectation based on recent developments.

Buffalo's Gailey has Bills offense up and running

Chan Gailey refuses to be pigeon-holed as a pass-first coach just because he's introduced several fancy four-receiver spread formations to the Buffalo Bills repertoire. Gailey still has plenty of old-school throwback in him to appreciate a good ground attack. If he had his druthers, Gailey would call a run every chance he had. ''Every snap,'' Gailey said Wednesday...

Bills road woes adding up: Have lost 8 straight

Linebacker Nick Barnett refuses to go as far back as last season when adding up the Buffalo Bills' string of road woes. To him, the count stands at 0-1 - and not 0-8 for a team that's not won away from home since its 2011 season-opening 41-7 victory at Kansas City. Barnett will concede that the Bills have plenty of room for improvement after opening the season with a 48...

There are two ways of looking at this. Maybe VY just having a bad day and wanted to retweet someone who was making a terrible comparison, but was supporting him or VY really believes this.

Financial troubles for Young

Via Fox Sports Houston  |  September 19, 2012
By DANNY ROBBINS Associated Press DALLAS (AP) -- Six years after entering the NFL as the third player taken in the draft, Vince Young finds himself without a team and with just a fraction of the money he received from a contract that guaranteed him 26 million. The question is, where did it all go? In an increasingly caustic war of words, attorneys have been arguing for months...

In what seems to be a yearly affair, the Buffalo Bills are taking on the Cleveland Browns this Sunday in Cleveland. There are a few things to watch for in this game before one can make a solid prediction on the game.

Potential trade targets for the Buffalo Bills

Via The Penalty Flag  |  September 21, 2012
In two polarizing weeks, Ryan Fitzpatrick, C.J. Spiller and the Buffalo Bills showed fans a full range of possibilities. They sat back and allowed the New York Jets to pummel them, then dished that treatment out in kind to the Kansas City Chiefs. It’s safe to say the real Buffalo Bills fall somewhere in the middle of all that. If so, then it’s tough to argue this team is perfect...
