"Actually Chad played a lot better than I anticipated he would," said Chan Gailey. "We’ll go through the rest of the week, but the way he played he certainly deserves to start this week and we’ll see how we handle the rotation and how we work that. Cord came out of the game pretty sore so that might have something to do with it in itself."

Inside The Bills | Wood’s play not a surprise
"Eric did a nice job. He handled things well," said Chan Gailey. "I think people were somewhat surprised by that, but we weren’t at all.

I thought it was a positive the way he was able to go fill in and play."
