PITTSFORD, N.Y. (AP) -When the Buffalo Bills hired Steve Fairchild to take over as offensive coordinator in January, fans were quick to make something of his last job: coaching under Mike Martz with the pass-happy St. Louis Rams. Not so fast. The Greatest Show on Turf might work in the wild NFC West and the controlled environment of the Rams' indoor stadium. But this is Buffalo where, come late November, the snow falls, the winds blow and the mercury takes a nosedive. Fairchild, for one, didn't need |

Other teams used other methods to deal with the problem: The St. Louis Rams, for example, bleached and sterilized every training table, sauna and surface.

ST. LOUIS (AP) -St. Louis Rams offensive linemen Adam Timmerman and Andy McCollum have a combined 25 seasons in the NFL, along with the wear and tear that goes with it. The experience mixed with the liability of age as well as a coaching change has put them on notice that their time may be winding down. Coach Scott Linehan wants competition on the offensive line and right guard Timmerman and center McCollum, both veterans of the team's last Super Bowl appearance in 2001, know it's about what you've done |
