‘Bills running back Willis McGahee could get his second consecutive start after Travis Henry remains listed as questionable with a sprained left foot. Henry practiced on Wednesday, but still appeared to be limping.’

‘The game must be sold-out before Thursday, October 28th at 1:00 pm for the game to be seen in the local television markets.’

‘”It’s a good habit to have, huh?” said Campbell, who caught just one touchdown last season and had just five in his previous five years in the NFL. “It feels good to know you’re a part of the offense.”‘

‘A win over Miami didn’t rid the Bills of all their problems. The Bills are 2-8 in their last 10 road games. They haven’t scored a rushing touchdown in almost eight games. The offense is ranked 27th overall in the NFL, but beating the Dolphins was a good first step. Now the Bills have to keep going forward. Losing to the Ravens may not be taking a step back – but at this point, standing still isn’t good enough, either.’

‘Despite the wishes of some Bills fans, the team was silent on the final day to make trades. Both RB Travis Henry and DT Sam Adams, deemed expendable by some following last Sunday’s win, were not moved before the deadline.’

‘The team has "adopted" school 89 in Buffalo as part of an "Eat Right and Exercise" program. Each month, members of the organization go to the school and talk with the K-8 students about the importance of healthy eating and getting plenty of exercise.’

‘The offensive line was very impressive, especially since they were down two quality starters. Trey Teague may be the best lineman this team has and Ross Tucker was able to step in and fill that void. Ross started a lot of games for us last year and it’s times like this that show why you have those types of guys on your team.’

‘While Buffalo won the game, 13-10, in all honesty, the Hall of Fame didn’t rush in to save anything from the Bills’ first and only trip to PSINet, now M&T Bank Stadium. Actually, perhaps it was appropriate that the game was played on Halloween, because both team’s offenses were downright scary.’
