Whether it's his players crying about fines levied for unusual reasons or famed music magazine Rolling Stone taking shots, Mangini has been public enemy No. 1 on the shores of Lake Erie. One week after beating the Buffalo Bills by an ugly 6-3 score for their first win in the Mangini era, the flu-stricken Browns suffered their 12th straight loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers with this past Sunday's 27-14 decision. The highlight of the day for Cleveland was Joshua Cribbs' 98-ya |

ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. (AP) - Buffalo Bills tight end Shawn Nelson will not play in Sunday's game against the Carolina Panthers. The Bills downgraded the rookie tight end to out on Saturday. Nelson sustained a concussion in last week's 16-13 overtime win over the New York Jets. Earlier this season, Nelson missed the Bills' loss to New Orleans because of a strained shoulder.Copyright © 2005 The Associated Press. All rights reserved.

That's when Sanchez threw five interceptions in a 16-13 overtime home loss to the Buffalo Bills. After becoming the first quarterback since the merger to start his rookie season 3-0, Sanchez is 36 for 80 for 429 yards with eight interceptions and one touchdown pass for a 26.5 passer rating in losing the past three weeks. That makes his play |

FLORHAM PARK, N.J. (AP) -Thomas Jones has no plans to call it a career anytime soon. The 31-year-old New York Jets running back believes he's still in his prime, and it's hard to argue with the guy. The Buffalo Bills certainly wouldn't, not after he ran for a franchise-record 210 yards against them last Sunday. ``I can play another four or five years if I want to, God willing, if I stay healthy,'' Jones said Friday before the Jets left for their next game at Oakland. One look at his chiseled frame i |

| Orchard Park, NY (MySportsbook) - Buffalo Bills quarterback Trent Edwards sat out practice for a second straight day Thursday, recuperating from a concussion suffered in last Sunday's win against the New York Jets. The likelihood that Ryan Fitzpatrick will lead the offense on Sunday against Carolina increased as he again worked with the first team offense in Edwards' absence. Fitzpatrick took over for Edwards in the second quarter of Buffalo's 16-13 overtime triumph in Week 6 and ended 10-of-25 for 116 ya |

A team in Los Angeles would likely be an existing one that relocates from another city, as the league has kept a longstanding stance against further expansion. Among the teams rumored to be targeted for a move to Los Angeles include the Buffalo Bills, Jacksonville Jaguars, Minnesota Vikings, St. Louis Rams, San Diego Chargers, Oakland Raiders and San Francisco 49ers. |

| Orchard Park, NY (MySportsbook) - Buffalo Bills quarterback Trent Edwards was absent from the practice field on Wednesday while he recuperates from a concussion. Edwards suffered the injury in the second quarter of Sunday's 16-13 overtime win at the New York Jets. Facing a 3rd-and-2 at the Buffalo 43, Edwards dropped back and was sacked by Calvin Pace and David Harris. Edwards' body twisted in a weird way as he went to the ground.

| Florham Park, NJ (MySportsbook) - The New York Jets placed defensive tackle Kris Jenkins on injured reserve and re-signed defensive tackle Howard Green on Tuesday. Jenkins tore the ACL in his left knee during the Jets' 16-13 overtime loss to the Buffalo Bills this past Sunday. The 6-foot-4, 360-pounder was injured late in the second quarter on a Fred Jackson run when teammate Shaun Ellis apparently fell on him while making a tackle. The nine-year veteran -- in his second season with New York -- had 15 tac |

| (MySportsbook) - Nothing has come easy for the Buffalo Bills this season. Beginning with Week 1, when Buffalo allowed a game it had seemingly won in New England to slip way following a late-game fumble, Dick Jauron's team has turned making things difficult on itself into a kind of art form. So it should have come as no surprise that the Bills looked at a post-game box score that saw them intercept six passes against the New York Jets on Sunday, and scratched their heads about how they needed a little more |
