He also asked him about how a safety has had to change his game with recent changes in rules about hitting defenseless receivers. We also asked if there were anyone else on the team as crazy as Stevie Johnson.
KSK: How are you spending your bye week? What have you been up to so far?

No one has better epitomized the first half of the Buffalo Bills' 2012 season than Mario Williams.
The $100 million man has only registered 3.5 sacks while often being unable to beat single blockers and sometimes getting pushed around on the field by tight ends. He's been a non-factor for much of the year, just like the rest of a defensive unit that's posting one...
