Wilson: Bills work out Cato June | National Football Post
"The Buffalo Bills tried out veteran linebacker Cato June on Tuesday, according to a league source. June was recently cut by the Chicago Bears following a brief stint."

POLLOCK: So what’s next as Bills’ season winds to finish? | Olean Times Herald
"There was an unmistakable downcast mood in the lockerroom following Sunday’s 17-10 loss to New England at "The Ralph." It started with interim coach Perry Fewell. Normally, a bundle of enthusiasm and humor, he seemed very much a beaten man in the interview room. He spoke uncharacteristically softly and seemed both frustrated and discouraged. Most of all, it appeared the reality of his situation had finally sunk in."

Byrd has good shot at Pro Bowl - BuffaloBills.com
"It’d be a blessing and a cool thing, but I don’t know," said Byrd of possibly being an AFC rep for Pro Bowl. "I hear a lot of the vets tell me that it’s hard to go if you’re not on a winning team and I understand that. I’m just going to take it for what it is. It’d be a blessing and an honor."

QB Carousel
WGR 550 SportsRadio - Report: Edwards and McGee to the IR

"Trent Edwards will finish the year with 1,167 yards passing, six touchdowns, seven interceptions and 22 sacks in parts of eight games [if he is indeed done for the season]. For his career, he's thrown one more interception (25) than touchdown (24)."

Hamdan or Brohm? – Inside The Bills
"If it comes down to a decision between Hamdan or Brohm because Fitzpatrick and Edwards are not available, I’d expect to see Brohm start. After all this coaching staff waived Hamdan to acquire Brohm. But if the staff is concerned about having to water down the offense too much to accommodate Brohm, I wouldn’t rule out Hamdan."

NFL.com Blogs " Bills likely will turn to Brohm to start vs. Falcons
"Brian Brohm likely will be the Bills’ starting quarterback in Sunday’s game against the Falcons, according to a league source," reports Jason La Canfora.

Other Bills News
Long, Faneca, Wilfork win Pro Bowl vote - AFC East Blog - ESPN

Jairus Byrd finished 5th in Pro Bowl voting at free safety in the AFC despite being on the ballot for all of a month. He's the only Bills player in the top 5 at any position.Other Pro Bowl candidates besides Byrd – Inside The Bills
"While Jairus Byrd is absolutely a prime candidate for AFC Pro Bowl honors, there are a few other Bills players with some statistics that put them in the Pro Bowl conversation as well." Chris Brown mentions and rationalizes Brian Moorman, Aaron Schobel, Marcus Stroud, and Kyle Williams.

With McGee out, Corner’s role increases – Inside The Bills
"Corner is expected to replace McGee at left cornerback, in the team’s base defense. It’s believed in nickel packages that Corner will move inside to the slot and Ashton Youboty will come on the field to play on the outside. Still another option is to have Donte Whitner play in the slot and leave Corner outside."

McGee to I-R; Bills re-sign Hamdan - BuffaloBills.com
"McGee became the 17th player to go on Buffalo’s injured reserve list tying the team high set in 2007."

How I See It: AFC East Stock Watch - AFC East Blog - ESPN
"Stock Rising - Fred Jackson, Bills running back: Jackson, the supposed backup to Pro Bowler Marshawn Lynch, is 189 yards from the coveted 1,000-yard milestone. Not bad for an undrafted Division III player who came up through the arena bush leagues. Jackson rushed 15 times for 80 yards against the Patriots. He also caught four passes for 32 yards and returned four kickoffs for 108 yards."

Troopers make 7 arrests following Bills game : The Buffalo News

Monday Morning Quarterback - Peter King - SI.com
- I know this about the Bills: If there's not a new quarterback under center in 2010, the locals are going to tear the stadium down.
- Clay Matthews ... Brian Cushing, Brian Orakpo ... Jairus Byrd ... James Laurinaitis ... I mean, how do you pick a defensive rookie of the year this season?

Monday Morning Quarterback, Tuesday Edition - Peter King - SI.com
"The game with the most compelling playoff implications, or the game with the most compelling story (for instance, the Colts going for a 16-0 season) would be the [flex] choice of the league."

Letters to the editor | democratandchronicle.com | Democrat and Chronicle
I see where the Buffalo Bills have signed a new player, "Richie Incognito." This sounds like the new version of Abbott and Costello's Who's on First? I can hear it now:
"Who's playing right guard?"
"He's Incognito."
"Why, is he wanted for something?"

2010 NFL Draft
Bills in line for top 10 draft pick : Buffalo Bills : The Buffalo News

"The Buffalo Bills are in position for a rare "reward" when the NFL Draft comes in April. The team is in line for a top 10 pick, something that has come along just twice in the past 10 years, despite the team failing to reach the postseason in the same time frame."

Bills Tweets

Hamdan has a broadcasting career ahead of him when he's done playing, speaks very well.

Twitter / Sal Maiorana
Phew! The Bills re-signed Gibran Hamdan. All is well. Wouldn't it be so Bills-like if they started him instead of Brohm if Fitz can't play?

Twitter / Adam Caplan
Lions waived veteran C Melvin Fowler.

Hamden was resigned to help with Trent Edwards ankle.

Excuses are a sign of weakness!!!!!!

Edwards: Do you know what your doing?

Hamden: It’s ok Brother, I’ve wrapped my share of ankles.

I found it interesting that we have only picked in the top 10 twice in the past ten years

but not reaching the playoffs once….

I would hate to see the “watered down” version of this offense. How much weaker and more pathetic could it really be?

No weekend spent pantsless is a wasted weekend.

agreed...

Our ‘O’ cant get much more watered down than it is now… I think evaporation is the next step lol

I wonder how much Throwing Hamden has done recently.

What’s Brian Brohm’s 40 time? Will he be able to get the sidelines fast enough. Time to bring back the no-huddle. Jonathan Scott and Kurt Chambers, watch out for those guys lining up right in front of you. Marshawn, you can take your hands off the side of the car now. Freddy, run like hell, your father is pissed. Ellison would play with one arm. See what you guys have done to me. Merry Christmas.
