‘To give up that many yards to a team that was winless is unexplainable, Buffalo linebacker Takeo Spikes said. “I can’t really speak on too much of what happened out there,” Spikes said. “We’ll have to look at the tape. I can’t tell you right now who missed their gaps or who overpursued. We’ll see soon enough though.”‘

‘”They did a good job changing their defense,” Losman said. “I saw cover 2, 3, 4 all sorts of things. We really didn’t start doing much on offense until the second half. There was a window for us, but then it was gone.”‘
