Buffalo Bills’ playoff drought extends to 16 years with loss to Washington
Cousins capped off a five-play, 56-yard drive with an 18-yard touchdown pass to Reed. “You like that! You like that!”.

Ricky Jean Francois put his faith in head coach Jay Gruden’s preseason decision to start Cousins over Robert Griffin III. “And if we get the job done, I’d like to think I’ll be wanted here”.
For a QB who began the season as a career backup, Cousins sure is Mr. Popularity these days.
“… As far as us, we’re just doing everything we can to get behind him, to stand by him, play him and be in the position that we need to be in once plays are called just to get our jobs done”.
RUSHING OFFENSE: B-minus. It doesn’t happen too often in the National Football League when you rush for 240 yards and lose, and lose handily. “And if we get the job done”.
“We still have a dogfight in front of us”.
“We have a game we need to win”, Jackson said.
“At the end of the day, we’re doing it to win, not to get on somebody and make them feel bad”. ESPN’s Adam Schefter reported that McCoy has a torn MCL and is considered week-to-week, calling into question what benefit the Bills would maintain by not shutting down McCoy in a year without the playoffs.
“Did it go according to plan? No, not this year”, said Rex Ryan, who is in his first season as Buffalo’s coach.
Redskins fans chanted “You like that!” at Cousins, serenading the rising star with the trademark line he shouted earlier this season after a 31-30 win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Cousins hit tight complete Jordan Reed for a pair of scores within the 1st half, & threw a concise pass to DeSean Jackson in that the speedy receiver become a 77-yard TD within the 3rd quarter by spinning away from defensive back Corey Graham.’Cousins completed his 1st 9 passes & completed 22 for 28 for 319 yards & no interceptions.
SCOREBOARD WATCHING: After six last-place finishes in seven years, the Redskins are relevant in December – and they’re keeping tabs on other teams’ results.
Left tackle Trent Williams and other Redskins watched the closing seconds of their NFC East rival New York Giants’ loss on TV, letting loose a loud celebration – raised arms, fist pumps, yells of “Yes!” – at the end. Players on the Washington Redskins have confidence in Kirk Cousins. The Bills had only two healthy tight ends going into the game. In October, Watkins – an underperforming Bills player at the time – ripped his coaches for not giving him the ball. “Everybody”, Ryan said. “That’s just the reality of this business”. Ryan said McCoy was scheduled to undergo testing Monday to determine the severity of his injury. “That’s obvious. You just wait and see if your number is called, that’s all”.
After Washington’s Jamison Crowder fumbled a punt, the Bills drove to a first-and-goal at the 5.
For Cousins and the Redskins, the win over the Bucs and his battle cry are looking more and more like both a defining moment and a turning point. Early in the third, it was 28-3, and that’s when the passing game started to click, when the score was out of reach.
No one was more electric than Jackson, who will be returning to Philadelphia where he played for six seasons before being shunned by Chip Kelly and signing with the Redskins before the 2014 season.

“I’ve personally been responsible for one of those”, Ryan said.
