Eric Wood injury update
The news was good considering what could have been on Eric Wood, who left Sunday’s game with a leg injury. Head coach Chan Gailey provided an update Monday. When asked if Wood had a chance to be back in the lineup on Sunday, Gailey offered the following. “It’ll be close on him,” said Gailey. ”He may [...]
George donating turkey dinners
Bills safety George Wilson will be handing out 100 turkey dinners to families in the Buffalo region this evening. Through his Safety Foundation, Wilson will distribute 100 “Boxes of Love” to families less fortunate in WNY. Wilson’s Safety Foundation has donated over 2,000 pounds of food for this year’s Home for the Holidays program. Families [...]
Florence giving back
While Drayton Florence was busy taking away from the Cincinnati Bengals Sunday in the form of an interception and fumble return for a TD, he’ll be giving back here on Monday as the Drayton Florence Foundation will be donating 110 Thanksgiving dinner baskets to families in his native Ocala, Florida. Courtesy of Florence’s foundation, 110 students [...]
Stevie gets props from Ocho
Stevie Johnson’s shirt under his jersey, which read ‘Why So Serious?’ in reference to the Batman movie ‘The Dark Knight’ was Johnson’s attempt at playing the Joker to T.O. and Chad Ochocinco as the Batman and Robin duo. The villain obviously won with Johnson’s 3 TD performance in a dramatic Bills comeback victory. While the league is [...]
Flo thinks Bengals folded
Bills CB Drayton Florence, who had a pair of takeaways Sunday including a 27-yard fumble return for a touchdown, believes the Bengals threw in the towel after an early fourth quarter barrage from Ryan Fitzpatrick and Stevie Johnson. “I’ve got to give my hat off to the rest of the team that showed up,” said [...]
Faith in Fitz
When Ryan Fitzpatrick was making some of his most ill-advised plays on Sunday, it was then that his Bills teammates showed the most faith in him. Shortly after his second interception, which was returned for a touchdown, Fred Jackson stepped up to Fitzpatrick and reminded him that they believe in him as their quarterback. “I [...]
Bills establish NFL first
Buffalo came back from a 21-point deficit in a game for the third time in their history, but they also established an NFL first, with their dramatic come from behind win Sunday at Cincinnati. The Bills became the first team in NFL history to win a game by 18 or more points after trailing by [...]
T.O. sounds off
Well after seven straight losses, the last of which came at the hands of the Bills on Sunday, Cincinnati WR Terrell Owens blew up. When asked what it was like to be part of a crazy game like this the Bengals wideout had an answer ready. “Crazy? What’s crazy is the fact that we’re just terrible,” said Owens. ”That’s just [...]
Wood injury update
More good news in addition to the Bills victory Sunday over the Bengals. Eric Wood’s knee injury is not considered a major one. “I don’t think (it’s serious),” said head coach Chan Gailey. “He could have gone back in a pinch. But we didn’t put him back in.” Wood will be re-evaluated on Monday.
Carrington active
Bills DE Alex Carrington is active for today’s game against the Bengals. It’s due primarily to the fact that Spencer Johnson is out of the lineup with a hamstring injury. That along with the fact that Kyle Williams is not 100 percent with a hamstring injury. Williams is not moving very well in pre-game warmups [...]
Caulcrick active
Bills FB and WNY native Jehuu Caulcrick is active for today’s game against the Bengals and here’s why. Corey McIntyre is active and expected to start, but how long he can go with a very tender ankle remains to be seen. My guess is Caulcrick is likely to help spell McIntyre on special teams at [...]

Wind picking up
It looks like while there will be mild temps and sunny skies, that the wind might have something to say today. In the last 20 minutes (prior to 11 am), the wind has picked up considerably, with gusts up to 20 mph. We’ll see if these conditions hold up through kickoff at 1 pm.
Weather won’t be factor
Cincinnati in late November is unseasonably mild here at Paul Brown Stadium. Forecast is for highs in low 60′s, wind is negligible and mostly sunny skies. The mild temps even have the players fired up. Just check out Drayton Florence’s latest tweet. DraytonFlorence Perfect weather great day for a win pick six and #28LiLLeo takin [...]

Bills-Bengals pre-game radio coverage begins at 8 am on the Bills Radio Network. The tailgate show runs from 8-10 am when Brent Axe and I will take phone calls at 1-877-GO-BILLS. Then Brent and sideline reporter Rich Gaenzler take over until 11:30. That’s when the Bills Roundtable begins with Rich, Mark Kelso and myself as [...]
Benson questionable
Bengals RB Cedric Benson participated fully in practice Friday, but he’s still listed as questionable with a foot injury and he’s not alone on the Bengals injury report. Starting DE Frostee Rucker (knee) and starting DT Tank Johnson (knee) are both doubtful for Sunday’s game. Starting LB Rey Maualuga (thigh) is questionable as he failed [...]
Bills among least penalized
The Bills have really made strides in certain areas of their game this season. They’re tops in the league in red zone touchdown percentage, Ryan Fitzpatrick leads the AFC in third down passing efficiency and as a team they’ve committed the third fewest penalties in the league through nine games. Head coach Chan Gailey made [...]
Caulcrick could get shot
Now on the active roster, Jehuu Caulcrick could see his first NFL regular season action Sunday at Cincinnati. Caulcrick was called up to the active roster with FB Corey McIntyre questionable for Sunday’s game with an ankle injury. After he was signed last week, Caulcrick said his number one goal was to get on the [...]
