We know how that turned out.
So I give them credit for pounding out a much-needed win and doing so with a depleted lineup that should’ve warranted a ticket refund.
The Bills overcame an injury-depleted roster to show a semblance of competitiveness against the Cowboys.
Prior to the game, NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reported that General Manager Doug Whaley is on firm ground as far as his job status and with one year left on his contract he is closer to receiving an extension than he is to being fired. “We knew that he meant business, and changed it”. “But you can’t be disappointed with the efforts of the players out there”.
Granted, at 4-11, America’s Team is now America’s Afterthought.
With starting running back LeSean McCoy sidelined with a knee injury Sunday, it seemed clear the Buffalo Bills would turn to some combination of Karlos Williams and Mike Gillislee to fill in.

While, he wasn’t asked to do a lot with 18 pass attempts only, he did rush 14 times for an additional 67 yards which did make him a standout. That was Buffalo’s last playoff year, but Flutie had the NFL’s No. 1 defense, not No. 21. He was held to a 48.6 rating, which in the world of statistics is a speck of sand. He fumbled the final kickoff after Buffalo scored their final touchdown and the game was over, without Dallas getting a chance for one last run.
Without Ronald Darby and Stephon Gilmore the Bills backup cornerbacks all had to play and contribute. Terrance Williams got involved on a nice third down converting screen pass. However, Kellen Moore’s pass was deflected and intercepted by A.J. Tarpley. We get that”, Ryan said, “but at the same time you don’t want to limit him too much to where he is not a threat to carry the football.
