| (MySportsbook) - Chargers All-Pro linebacker Shawne Merriman makes his return to the field this Sunday, when San Diego visits the Buffalo Bills at Ralph Wilson Stadium. Merriman, last year's Defensive Rookie of the Year, is coming off a four-game suspension for violating the league's steroid policy and is hoping to give an added lift to a team that is already in the midst of a five-game winning streak. The Chargers pushed their lead in the AFC West to two games over Kansas City and Denver with last Sunday |

He instead issued a grudging concession in leading up to the Buffalo Bills (5-6) hosting Tomlinson's San Diego Chargers (9-2) on Sunday. ``He's up there.

The rookie now leads all first-year running backs with 789 yards, and became just the eighth rookie to rush for four TDs in a game. Samuel was |

In this case, it changed the course of the game, because just four plays later, Tomlinson threw his touchdown pass to Gates and tied the score at 14. "It was an honest mistake," Jackson added. "We came out with a win, so we just put it behind us. We won, so it's okay." It's not "okay", but I guess it's true that winning cures everything.

The league's new scheduling plan tries to ensure that Sunday night nationally- televised games on NBC and the late-afternoon Sunday time slot for FOX and CBS will feature quality matchups.

| (MySportsbook) - A pair of AFC teams looking to build on Week 11 victories square off this Sunday, as the Buffalo Bills host the Jacksonville Jaguars at Ralph Wilson Stadium. Jacksonville is coming off an impressive 26-10 Monday night victory over a tough New York Giants team, and has won three of its last four games. The Jags took advantage of a poor performance by Giants quarterback Eli Manning, and rode the wave of strong play by their own signal-caller, David Garrard, and a smothering defense. Garrard |

While Jauron didn't rule McGahee out entirely, he expressed concern that he might not be physically ready after missing two weeks of workouts. ``It's going to affect him in terms of conditioning and he'll have to |
