Inside The Bills | Dareus says he’s playing
"It’s good," said Dareus of the hand. "It’s coming along. It’s a middle of the season injury that had happened, the little nicks and bruises. I’m not really too worried about it. I’m going to play. I’ve got some great defensive linemen around me that are going to support me and we’re going to battle it out."
Inside The Bills | Fitz not worried about QB drafted
"It’s just something I can’t worry about," said Fitzpatrick. "Just like last year I wasn’t worried about hem drafting a quarterback. I’ve sat down with Chan. I’ve talked to Buddy. We’re trying to get this thing going in the right direction right now. It’s a lot of different things. But the thing I can control right now is me playing better. It’s something I have to do, it’s through practice, it’s through the communication with the guys in the film room and just going out there and doing it."
Reverent Tebow is the kneel deal - Bucky Gleason
"It didn't sound like there was anything wrong with Tebow after hearing 13 1/2 minutes of unadulterated kindness during his conference call Tuesday. He had a difficult time remembering the last time he had a cross word about anybody."
Gailey recruited Tebow - The Buffalo News
The Bills had Tebow in town for a pre-draft visit in 2010. Said Gailey: "I had known him before. We recruited him out of high school, so I had known him for a long time. His dad and I were at Florida together so I’ve known him for a long time and known about him for a long time. It wasn’t anything different than I already knew. What a great guy."
Fitz says he's not hurt - The Buffalo News
"Bills quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick pooh-poohed any suggestion injury has been a reason for his poor production in recent weeks.

He has not been on the injury report any week since or missed any practice time."

"It will be the third blackout - and the third straight - for the Bills."
Gailey on Spiller's workload - The Buffalo News
"He really didn’t play the whole first half, the whole two-thirds of the season. I don’t want to put 25-30 carries on him right now. At some point, he may get 25-30 carries, but if he’s going to be involved in the passing game, he’s going to touch it 15-20 times and that’s what he needs to do. We need to try to make sure he touches it in some way, shape or form 20 times a game. That’s what you hope to have from a guy like that."

That’s the goal, that’s the only thought right now."
Fitzpatrick Not Worried About Bills Possibly Drafting QB - WGR 550
"But the thing I can control right now is me playing better. It's something I have to do, it's through practice, its through the communication with the guys in the film room and just going out there and doing it. For me my main focus and the thing I've learned since I've been in the NFL is you have to be able to put all your thought into what you can control."

"Well I guess we can start off by saying that you'll never see a team play harder than we will for the rest of the season... I'm just kidding. This is Tebow time, huh?"
Should Chan Gailey be the Buffalo Bills' coach? | Democrat and Chronicle
"But where Gailey really is losing me is his insistence that Ryan Fitzpatrick is this team's quarterback of the future and throwing cold water on the notion that the Bills shouldn't waste their 2012 first-round draft pick on a quarterback (for example, Heisman Trophy-winner Robert Griffin III, who would be an upgrade at the position, a drawing card and a reason to think the Bills might make the playoffs again)."

"A lot of times in college you'll have teammates and friends, but then you also have some guys on each team that you're really close with," Nelson said Tuesday as a crush of reporters surrounded him at his locker stall.

We developed a relationship to where we know that (even if) we're not playing together, we still keep in touch and still try to stay connected."

Sanchez-Fitz-Moore Watch - AFC East Blog - ESPN
"The race for the No. 2 quarterback in the AFC East is heating up." I think it's cooling off. They all stink.
AFC East Stock Watch - AFC East Blog - ESPN
Look at that. The Bills got a riser this week in C.J. Spiller, while their third down defense is falling. Reggie Bush is also a riser after his career day against Buffalo.
NFL Power Rankings: AFC East - AFC East Blog - ESPN
"The Bills continue to drop after their seventh consecutive loss. The defense hasn't stopped anyone in weeks and quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick has been too streaky and inconsistent to lift his team. Buffalo needs to take a hard look at its roster in the offseason. The defense needs a major overhaul, but the offense also needs several pieces. Until then, Buffalo needs to try to win at least one of these next two games to help with confidence."
Bringing back Stevie Johnson should be no-brainer - Hornell Evening Tribune
"Johnson has proven his worth, building on last season’s breakout year with a solid 2011 campaign. Johnson leads the club with 68 receptions for 872 yards and six scores, all while being the focus of opposing pass defenses after Lee Evans was dealt away."
Fitzpatrick hasn't justified contract extension - CBSSports.com
"In the last week of October, when the Bills were about to get to 5-2 with a dominating 23-0 win over Washington, Fitzpatrick signed a contract extension for six years worth a potential $59 million, about $24 million of that guaranteed. Since the ink dried, the Bills won that game in Toronto over the Redskins, and they have lost their next seven, and Fitzpatrick has been simply horrific."
