Kelly's Call: Run game weather is here - BuffaloBills.com
"The most encouraging sign on offense last week was how involved Fred Jackson was in the game plan. I know I’ve been a proponent of getting Fred more involved, but I’m not mentioning anything that Chan Gailey doesn’t already know. He knows that when you start getting into November and December that you have to have your running game going."

FB Caulcrick elevated to active roster - BuffaloBills.com

Video: Bills at Bengals predictions - AFC East Blog - ESPN
"In previewing Sunday's game in Paul Brown Stadium, ESPN analyst Tedy Bruschi claims the Cincinnati Bengals are a mentally defeated club, but running back Cedric Benson should enjoy a big afternoon against the Buffalo Bills' shaky run defense. Bruschi and Mark Schlereth both pick the Bengals to win."

Final Word: AFC East - AFC East Blog - ESPN
"Leodis McKelvin better not guard Terrell Owens on Sunday: Some of my most vivid memories from Buffalo's 2009 training camp were of Owens scalding McKelvin. That was with Trent Edwards at quarterback, not Carson Palmer. It got to the point you felt bad for the young cornerback as Owens simply toyed with him on routes in 11-on-11 drills."

Bills still made the right choice in not resigning T.O

This is a true statement and article. Obviously, this has allowed Johnson, Nelson and Parrish to contribute or not contribute offensively. Fortunately, they have contributed, can you imagine if they hadn’t what we would be saying. Now without Spiller, and Parrish this becomes more of a critical area on offense. Spiller only because he was considered a threat whenever he was on the field and Parrish was huge on third down plays. Somehow we will need Fitz to continue to spread the ball around to keep defenses honest. We will need more targets in the passing game and obviously to keep Freddy fresh and healthy until Nelson, Jones or even a Tight End can fill those voids. I guess I am trying to say when we put six to eight receivers in the stat column we look more complete on offense then when we only have three of four recievers in the stat column.

MWR -- By far the most underratted aspect of BR

Has to be Web Rumblings… Kudos

Laughed my tail off when reading Tim Grahm’s article and thought of “what could have been” LOL

Cameron Wake is the NFL’s best pass-rusher on passing downs. ESPN Stats & Information delivered a neat item about the Dolphins’ outside linebacker. Wake has recorded an NFL-best 8.5 sacks with five or more defensive backs on the field (i.e., obvious passing downs). Clay Matthews has eight such sacks. Brian Orakpo is third with 7.5 sacks. What better time for a pass-rusher to come through than when the opponent needs to throw?

"What an inept franchise. Running backs have become for the Bills what wide receivers were for the Millen-era Lions." -- John Morgan of SBNation's Field Gulls

Well, all it takes is one C.J. to start the turnaround!

Kyle Williams

I could be wrong, but Chan has been pretty consistent in sitting players who are dinged up for a game or two in an attempt to prolong their season Vs allowing them to play and risk them complicating their recovery. I am concerned that Kyle maybe the first to buck this trend. He is a man’s man and plays like a leader in that front four, I just hope he isn’t risking a two or three game out this late in the season. The one thing I have been looking foward to this 1-8 season is our rematches against our division and they are 3 of our last four games. I would want him as healthy as possible for those games.

Here’s a guy who seems to be underrated, a hard-nosed guy who gives you everything on every down. I hope he gets a chance to play with a winner some day here in Buffalo.

God I hate Tedy Bruschi.
