Bills' D takes worst two-game trampling since '79 - AFC East - ESPN
Here's a ghastly stat for Bills fans: Their team has yielded 472 rushing yards over the past two games. That's the first time Buffalo's defense has allowed at least 200 yards in consecutive games since 1983. It's the worst back-to-back performance since 1979, when they allowed 510 rushing yards.

Bills notebook: Third down has been a problem : The Buffalo News
Sunday in Miami, the Bills converted just 1 of 11 chances on third down. Going back to last season's loss to Miami in Toronto, the Bills have gone 2 for 21 on third downs in the last two games against the Dolphins. The team ranks 30th in the NFL in third-down conversions, with a success rate of 23.4 percent.

Buffalo Bills NFL News Updates - CBSSports.com Rapid Reports
- Bills QB Trent Edwards isn't bothered by fans questioning whether he should remain the starter. "I don't honestly pay attention to any of that," Edwards said. "Any time I waste worrying about that is something (that's going to be) wasted time I could prepare for the Cleveland Browns."
- Bills coach Dick Jauron was uncharacteristically agitated when asked why Buffalo has struggled so much offensively on third down (30th in the league). "No, I wouldn't detail (the reasons) for you," Jauron said. "You can see them on the course of Sundays, we're not converting."

POLLOCK: Clearly, QB is a problem for the Bills | Olean Times Herald
It’s very possible - maybe even likely - that Trent Edwards is neither the quarterback for now OR the future? And what unfolded on a blistering hot Sunday afternoon at Land Shark Stadium could well serve as the convincer.

Jauron on Trent’s confidence – Inside The Bills
"I would say everybody’s confidence, when you lose it’s hard to keep confident," said Jauron. "So we’ve got to get back to winning games and focus on this game and go out and give everything we have to win it. It’s a tough deal when you lose a football game and when you lose a couple in a row it gets tougher."

Bills supporting their coach – Inside The Bills
"We’re behind everybody in this organization," Kyle Williams said. "We’re behind the head coach, the O-coordinator, the D-coordinator and all the players. We believe in one another and we just have to go out and win football games. That’s what it’s all about."

Twitter / Kawika Mitchell
We have to make the necessary moves to get better. Whatever it is.

Twitter / ESPN's Adam Schefter
Think his seat is heating up. RT @ryanferreira2: @Adam_Schefter for all Bills fans, do you think Jauron will or should be fired this season?

Twitter / 13 WHAM Rochester's Chuck Wade
Peter King writes that Greg Williams wanted to draft Drew Brees when he was coaching the Bills. Think he'd still be here if Brees was a Bill

Twitter / Newsday's Bob Glauber
Agree. @GTorlone 5 wors coaching jobst: Mangini (0-4), Zorn (2-2), Jauron (1-3), Fox (0-3), Fisher (0-4), hard to say Fisher, but it's true.

Twitter / Rochester D&C's Sal Maiorana
Word is that Dick Jauron expressed confidence in QB Trent Edwards moving forward. So he's the one!

Twitter / Rochester' D&C's Sal Maiorana
Dick Jauron also said he fully recognizes his job is on the line, though he said he has felt that way in every game he has played or coached

Twitter / ESPN's Adam Schefter
If it doesn't turn around, no later than this offseason. RT @Deltroy: @Adam_Schefter Any time table when you think Jauron is out of Buffalo?

Twitter / Aaron Maybin
headed to the plane down to NYC for the night. Shawn Nelson's B-day. Lets GO!

Twitter / Scout.com's Adam Caplan
I'd add Dick Jauron in there, too. RT @antdavid39: @caplannfl whose the clock ticking louder for Tom Cable or Jim Zorn?

Twitter / Scout.com's Adam Caplan
Too early. RT @Buffalo_Tribute: @caplannfl Do you think Dick could be fired this week? He was on the hot seat middle of last season

Twitter / Lydell Sargeant
It seems like it takes months for tuesdays to come around, but I LOVE my day off..After long week of work.. mon afternoon n tues r da best!

Twitter / Darryl Talley
I need 2 clear up something . No matter how passionate I was bout ydays game, I NEVER called the Bflo media and demanded 2 speak with them!

Twitter / Darryl Talley
They just made it seem like I was out of my mind with anger. I was just shocked with what I was seeing! Some of what I tweeted was banter.

Twitter / WGR 550's Nicholas Mendola
Trent doesn't try that throw in video games. Don't like the Vikings, but love No. 4.

Twitter / Rochester D&C's Sal Maiorana
So tell me why Lee Evans and Terrell Owens can't get open like that. And maybe Favre can teach Trent Edwards the art of the pump fake

Twitter / Rochester D&C's Sal Maiorana
Is it just me or do these teams look like they play in a different league than the Bills?

Twitter / Thurman Thomas
I love you all, thank you.Best fans in the world and Jim and I will get this team turned around. Good night and God Bless
