Mario makes a difference - BuffaloBills.com
"Williams’ four and a half sacks in Sunday’s win over Carolina (24-23) set a team record for most sacks in a single game. The last Bills defender to have four sacks in a game was Cornelius Bennett, who did it 26 years ago (12/27/87) against Philadelphia."

"I’ve been chasing that play since Pittsburgh," said Johnson. "I’m happy that it happened. The feeling was great, I can’t lie, the feeling was great and we were ecstatic in there, but it’s Week 2. We’ve got to bounce back and get ready for the Jets."
Bills win in dramatic fashion - BuffaloBills.com
"It was an outstanding game," said head coach Doug Marrone. "What I talked to the team about was a great effort defensively on the short fields holding them to three. For them to stand up like that, that’s very difficult to do in this league against a team that has quite a bit of weapons out there. We didn’t do some smart things out there, but I’m proud of this team for believing in one another."

A poised Manuel drives Bills to comeback win - The Buffalo News
"The final march was mostly a combination of check-down passes and ball-carriers doing a good job of getting out of bounds to stop the clock. But Manuel came up especially big twice. The play before the TD, he eluded the pass rush and scrambled around right end for 9 yards to the Carolina 2. Two plays before that, the Panthers had him dead in the pocket – and a sack would have virtually ended the game. The 6-foot-5, 237-pound Manuel slipped away, spun out of their grasp and dumped the ball off to C.J. Spiller for a 4-yard gain with 21 seconds left."
Peace at home gets Bills’ Williams off rough road - The Buffalo News
"[Mario] Williams admitted that he had been a tormented man for some time. His problems had gone back a good five years, back to his days in Houston, before he found peace. It would be easy to assume years of bottled up angst poured out in a dramatic 24-23 victory over Carolina, a game in which he broke the franchise record for sacks in a game."
Touchdown catch by Bills’ Johnson feels like redemption - The Buffalo News
"The defense showed up. This is the second week in a row where they’ve showed up. We’ve still got to catch up to them," he said. "That’s our challenge as an offense. The special teams, they’re solid, but the offense – we could still be on another level. We’ve got to play catch-up with our defense so we can be a balanced team."

Rapid Reaction: Bills 24, Panthers 23 - ESPN
"Stock watch: Falling -- Manuel. After avoiding critical mistakes in the opener, Manuel was strip-sacked and then intercepted on back-to-back drives in the second half. Both turnovers came deep in Bills territory, but the Bills' defense was able to bail him out, holding the Panthers to field goals both times. Manuel's best throws of the game came in the middle of the field. He struggled in the red zone until the last drive, when he found Johnson, who was wide open. "
