CJ Spiller is having a ridiculous year. He leads all eligible running backs in YPC by a yard and a half over Adrian Peterson, who is 2nd. Spiller is at 7.3. Peterson is at 5.8 He’s at 4.3 yards per carry after contact, which is about an average total yards per carry. Doug Martin is next at 3.7. He ranks 14th in the league in rushing yards despite having just 87 carries. No one else who has fewer than 100 carries ranks higher than 25th. If you add in his receiving yardage, he has 929 yards on just 115 touches. They have to find someone to get him the ball more. Fred Jackson is out this week, so expect a huge game from him. It’s a shame the Bills two best offensive players play the same position. That would be the Bills’ luck.
Studs
RB CJ Spiller: Rushed for 70 yards (35 after contact) on 9 attempts, 2 broken tackles, allowed 4 catches for 61 yards on 4 attempts
LG Andy Levitre: Allowed 1 quarterback hurry on 49 pass block snaps, run blocked for 34 yards...

GIVING HIM SOME LIP
Michael Irvin gives C.J. Spiller a double kiss
Yes, yes he did. As the postgame interview with C.J. Spiller was wrapping up, Irvin was congratulating him and saying his goodbyes. Then for some reason, the hung and handshake weren’t enough. Irvin thought it appropriate to go in for the double kiss. By the way, the Bills won 19-14 and are now in second place in the AFC East. Filed under: Football, NFL, Video
NFL fines Patriots linebackers $30,000 for Buffalo game
Jerod Mayo fined $10,000 for hit on CJ Spiller. Brandon Spikes fined $25,000 for hit on Fitzpatrick.— Nick Underhill (@Nick_Underhill) November 16, 2012How stupid. Fitzpatrick was the one that caused Spikes to hit him in the head by tilting his head down. I've ranted enough on this. See below:Why I think Bills fans and players are hypocritesHow people are rushing to judgement on Spikes
Michael Irvin kisses C.J. Spiller during Bills/Dolphins postgame (Video)
As the Buffalo Bills held onto beat the Miami Dolphins on Thursday Night Football, Bills running back C.J. Spiller was the star of the game with 91 total rushing yards.
During the NFL Network postgame, former Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Michel Irvin was saying for goodbyes to CJ and well, this is what happened:

Spiller Has Rare 5/5 Vision: He Rarely Sees The Ball When His Team Is On The 5 Yard Line
Tonight was supposed to be a coming out party of sorts for C.J. Spiller. Many in the fantasy community were expecting 30 carries for 500 yards, 20 touchdowns, a signed autograph from Justin Bieber (why, fantasy community, why?) and for him to save burning orphans from space aliens…give or take. Truthfully, I used to be a part of the Spiller fanclub and rooted for him harder...

Week 11:Know your enemy- Miami Dolphins
Forget the teases, it is Know your enemy with PhinsPhocus.
1) If you were the Bills' defensive or offensive coordinator, how would you attack the Dolphins?
CJ Spiller, CJ Spiller then some more CJ Spiller. He is a special player and needs to get the ball (Editor's note: Tell that to Chan). Dolphins also tend to struggle against Tight ends so I would try and get Scott...
True or False: Buffalo Bills/Miami Dolphins Edition
Being realistic, the Buffalo Bills are done for the year. At 3-6 it’d take quite a turnaround to even compete for a Wildcard spot.
The Bills do face a weaker schedule for the next seven weeks, but to realistically compete they’d need to run the table.
Heading into Week 10, here are our True or False standings. In parentheses are last week’s records.

QCS Buffalo Water Cooler: Bills Look To Squish The Fish
This week’s Water Cooler features QCS writers Mike Bundt, John Snyder, Mike Straw, Ryan Talbot and Brandon Hess.
Mike Bundt: What’s up everybody! Not the best result for the Bills over the weekend but I think we can all agree that we saw some progress out of the team. With the game in Ryan Fitzpatrick’s hands, Buffalo just couldn’t finish the game off.
Should Bills fans be...

New England Patriots vs. Buffalo Bills, Round 2
It’s time for a confession:I kind of wish the Buffalo Bills had won Sunday’s match-up against the New England Patriots, if only because of their second half play. Ryan Fitzpatrick completed 27 of 40 attempts for a total of 337 yards,while Fred Jackson and C.J. Spiller both continuously made something out of nothing. Jackson finished with 80 yards rushing and 4 catches for 35...
Gameday Deciding Factors: Dolphins at Bills
In a crucial divisional bout where neither team can afford a loss, Thursday's primetime matchup between the Buffalo Bills and the Miami Dolphins shouldn't disappoint.

Field Goals: Playoff picture and Miami week
If you read Grantland, you would have come across an interesting piece on the Bills that was equal parts inspiring, depressing and gut wrenching. Among the many topics that the story covers is how Buffalo’s youth is moving away from their affiliation with the Bills and rooting for other NFL teams.
That will happen with 12 years of no playoffs and beyond mediocre teams.
