He's listed as questionable for the game, after getting hit hard and slammed to the turf on his first pass of last week's game against the Buffalo Bills. As for the Giants? They must really be tired of these trips to Minnesota by now. The Vikings and Giants are set to play for the ninth time in the last 10 regular seasons, a scheduling quirk that has slated seven of those meetings - this year wo |

ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. (AP) - The Buffalo Bills will be blacked out on local television for the third time this year after failing to sell out Sunday's game against the Cleveland Browns by the NFL deadline. The blackout covers a 75-mile radius. The Bills (2-10) loss to Jacksonville on Oct. 10 and win over Detroit on Nov. 14 were also not sellouts. The Browns (5-7) have won two straight, and four of their last six after a 1-5 start.Copyright © 2005 The Associated Press. All rights reserved. The info |

Betts had yet to fully recover from a serious knee injury that prematurely ended his 2009 season with the Washington Redskins. In seven games this year, Betts posted 45 carries for 150 yards and two touchdowns, adding 23 receptions for 141 yards. Mitchell has yet to play in 2010, but was limited to five games a season ago with the Buffalo Bills during which he compiled 27 tackles and one forced fumble. |

ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. (AP) - Andy Levitre knows the rash of injuries along the Buffalo Bills offensive line isn't anything to be taken lightly. But he's aware the sky isn't falling either. When the Bills (2-10) host the Cleveland Browns (5-7) on Sunday, they'll be sporting a new center and right guard. That's because center Geoff Hangartner and right guard Kraig Urbik sustained knee injuries in Sunday's loss at Minnesota. That's caused a domino effect. Starting right guard Eric Wood, who returns after mi |

VIKINGS: It was deja vu all over again for the Minnesota Vikings on Sunday. In a lopsided 38-14 rout of the Buffalo Bills at Mall of America Field in the Twin Cities, Adrian Peterson, Sidney Rice and a frugal defense were on display in arguably Minnesota's most complete game of the year. The collective effort brought back memories of last season's run to the NFC title |

ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. (AP) -Arthur Moats would prefer seeing Brett Favre start his 298th consecutive game this weekend. The Buffalo Bills rookie linebacker isn't sure he wants to be remembered as the guy who ended the Minnesota Vikings quarterback's NFL-record starting streak. Moats has become the focus of attention after he hit Favre square in the back and sent him to the turf on the third play from scrimmage in Buffalo's 38-14 loss on Sunday. Favre did not return and was diagnosed with a sprained joint |

Favre was hurt Sunday against the Buffalo Bills when he was hit hard on his first pass, and he wasn't able to return. Frazier says if the team's medical staff clears Favre to play and the 41-year-old quarterback ``feels good about it'' then he won't hesitate to send him out for an NFL-record 298t |
