| Orchard Park, NY (MySportsbook) - The Buffalo Bills took wide receiver James Hardy off the reserve/physically unable to perform list on Wednesday, the team announced. The second-year player suffered an ACL tear in a loss to the New York Jets last December, and was not ready to begin the 2009 campaign because of the daily grind of the football schedule. Hardy, who was a second-round choice by Buffalo in the 2008 draft, had nine catches for 87 yards and two touchdowns in 14 games during his rookie year. In |

The Bills (3-5) opened the season 1-4 under Edwards, before he sustained his second concussion in a little over a year in a 16-13 overtime win at the New York Jets. Fitzpatrick rallied the Bills to beat the Jets, and then went 1-1 in two starts. Buffalo's offense has sputtered for the past six games, and ranks among the worst in the NFL. Edwards has been cleared to play after three weeks of rest, including |

Between now and then, New England will play three massively telling contests, beginning with one against the unbeaten Indianapolis Colts on the road this week. After traveling to Indy, the Pats will host a New York Jets team that dealt them a much-publicized 16-9 loss back in Week 2. Then, it's on to New Orleans to face a rocking, rolling Saints club that is likely to be 10-0 heading into that Monday night contest (the Saints face the 1-7 Rams and Buccaneers the ne |

TEXANS: The first-half of the 2009 season did not begin the way the Houston Texans would have liked, with a shocking 24-7 home loss to the New York Jets and rookie quarterback Mark Sanchez. And, though Houston subsequently righted the ship to finish a franchise-best 5-3 at the break, the second-half of the campaign began with similar disappointment.

FLORHAM PARK, N.J. (AP) -Braylon Edwards has a unique perspective on the New York Jets' slide to 4-4 following a 3-0 start. Traded to New York days after the team's first loss, the wide receiver brings an outsider's view when he's watched some video of those first three games. ``The only thing that really changed - it looked like they were having a lot of fun,'' Edwards said Monday as the Jets returned from their bye-week break. ``Those first three games, they came out on a mission to prove, 'We are s |
