Bills Offense Sputters Again | WIVB.com

But at least it can be said Gailey's a quick learner because after watching his quarterback prove once again he is no NFL starter in a 34-7 embarrassment dished out by the Green Bay Packers and after which, Gailey came as close as an NFL coach can come to at least rhetorically throwing up his hands."

wgrz.com | Buffalo, NY | Bills Not One of NFL's Surprises
"Just 2 weeks into the season though, it looks like the "experts" were totally right about the 2010 Buffalo Bills. Yes, a new head coach and gm and staff, but the same quarterback behind an inferior offensive line, and after their 34-7 loss at Green Bay, the Bills look hopelessly lost."
