| Hempstead, NY (MySportsbook) - New York Jets wide receiver Jerricho Cotchery is listed as doubtful for Sunday's game against the Bills due to a hamstring injury. Cotchery, who injured his hamstring last Thursday in practice, was able to play Monday night against the Dolphins. However, he caught just one pass for four yards in that contest. The sixth-year receiver didn't practice at all this week due to the injury. "I know it's been reported that J-Co's (Cotchery) already out, but that's news to me," Jets |

The Browns are 31st in passing with 142.2 yards per game through the air. Now that Braylon Edwards has been traded to the New York Jets, Mohammed Massaquoi (11 receptions) is the team's new leader with 195 receiving yards. Massaquoi averages 17.7 yards per catch and eight of his 11 catches this season have resulted in first downs. Mike Furrey leads Cleveland with 13 receptions, whil |

This is nothing new for Favre, who has made a career out of spreading the ball around, be it for 16 seasons in Green Bay or his last one with the New York Jets. ``I have no favorites,'' Favre said. ``Now do I throw over here and this guy is wide open? Absolutely. It happens all the time.'' Heck, Favre even completed a pass to himself this season. It happened last week against the Rams, when the ball wa |

ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. (AP) -Buffalo starting middle linebacker Paul Posluszny and starting safety Donte Whitner are both probable for the Bills game at the New York Jets. Posluszny has missed the past four games because of a broken forearm, while Whitner missed his second straight game last Sunday because of a thumb injury. Both players participated fully in practice on Thursday and Friday. Starting safety Bryan Scott (ankle) and starting right tackle Jonathan Scott (ankle) are both out for Sunday's game |

In Buffalo, Brees' streak of 22 games with 200 or more yards passing was snapped in Buffalo, and Brees passed for under 200 yards again two weeks ago against the New York Jets. Brees said defenses aren't shutting him down so much as the Saints have exploited their newfound ability to control games by keeping the ball on the ground and using up clock. ``We went in wanting to take care of the football and run the ball e |

They had only five games in which they didn't run at least 30 times, a number they've reached exactly once in Sept. 27's loss at the New York Jets. ``In the past games, we were running the ball well, but we had to go to the passing game because we fell behind,'' Johnson said. ``When we had the opportunity to get seven, we were getting three instead.

FLORHAM PARK, N.J. (AP) -The New York Jets opened the season by punishing opposing quarterbacks, hitting them at will and forcing them into all kinds of mistakes. Well, that big, bad pass rush has been sacked for a few games, and the Jets want to revive it starting this Sunday against Buffalo. New York is tied with Jacksonville for the fewest sacks in the NFL with four in five games. That's not exactly the type of statistic that was expected when Rex Ryan brought his aggressive style of defense along |

FLORHAM PARK, N.J. (AP) -New York Jets wide receiver Jerricho Cotchery missed a second straight day of practice Thursday because of a hamstring injury and was uncertain whether he'll be ready to play against Buffalo. ``It doesn't look real good,'' coach Rex Ryan said. ``We'll see how he is.'' Cotchery was injured in practice last Thursday and sat out two days before playing Monday night at Miami. ``We're taking the same program we took last week,'' Cotchery said. ``We're just trying to treat it hard |

And he doesn't think it'll make any difference among fans should the Bills win on Sunday when they travel to play the New York Jets. ``I think the fans are fed up enough that it won't even have an effect,'' Abshagen said. ``We are in too deep at this point.''Copyright © 2005 The Associated Press.
