| (MySportsbook) - Though neither the Buffalo Bills nor Cleveland Browns would appear to be going anywhere that would involve a championship in 2009, the battle between the teams at Ralph Wilson Stadium on Sunday should be plenty intense. Such is the desperation for a win present in both organizations at the moment. The Bills are one week removed from being blown off the field, 38-10, by the previously winless Miami Dolphins, and whispers about the employment status of Dick Jauron have been water-cooler tal |

ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. (AP) -If the Cleveland Browns' decision to trade mercurial receiver Braylon Edwards was one of addition by subtraction, Terrell Owens did the math and came up with a far different answer. ``Hey,'' the Buffalo Bills receiver said, ``maybe we'll have a chance to win this weekend.'' T.O. certainly understands what happens to teams that part ways with their star receivers, considering the 2-2 start Tony Romo and the Cowboys have gotten off to this year. And Owens was happy to discuss Ed |

ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. (AP) -For a team that's supposed to be in a state of crisis after a dreadful start to the season, the surprisingly upbeat Buffalo Bills don't look the part. Aside from a smiling Terrell Owens running off the field and playfully kidding around with his fellow receivers, there was the rousing rendition of ``Happy Birthday'' the Bills sang at midfield following practice to celebrate coach Dick Jauron turning 59 on Wednesday. ``You can't just sit here and sulk. You can't put your tail b |

ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. (AP) -Buffalo Bills starting left tackle Demetrius Bell returned to practice and is expected to play against Cleveland this weekend.

MIAMI (AP) -He came from the left. He came from the right. He came from the CFL. On Sunday, Cameron Wake kept winding up in the Buffalo Bills' backfield. The 27-year-old rookie sacked Trent Edwards three times to help the Miami Dolphins earn their first win by beating the Bills 38-10. Wake signed with the Dolphins in January after totaling 39 sacks in two seasons with the British Columbia Lions. He didn't play in Miami's first two games and saw limited action a week ago.

Henne will make his first NFL start on Sunday, when the Dolphins look to notch their initial win of 2009 against the also-struggling Buffalo Bills, and Henne will also be opening behind center for the foreseeable future. Chad Pennington, who has started all 20 games during Tony Sparano's tenure as head coach, tore the capsule in his throwing shoulder on a hit in the third- quarter of last Sund |
