That's five catches for 98 yards through three games for Owens, hardly the kind of production for which the Bills paid him $6.5 million. He has been the target on throws just 13 times. He had games where he was thrown to more in Dallas, Philadelphia and San Francisco.

Bills notebook: Defense stops Brees but still gets run over : Buffalo Bills : The Buffalo News
The Bills sacked Brees, who was sacked just 13 times in 635 pass attempts last season, twice and pressured him into some rushed throws. One of the sacks came from defensive end Aaron Schobel, who forced a fumble. The Bills relied mostly on a four-man rush and flooded the secondary with defenders to take away Brees' passing lanes.
