‘Cornerback Terrence McGee (back) and linebacker Keith Ellison (knee) are also listed as questionable while offensive tackle Cornell Green (knee) has been ruled out for the game.’

‘He helped develop the team’s corporate client services model, helped grow the department to more than 100 sponsors, and is an integral part of the Bills regionalization plans.’

‘A third-year player who made just 12 catches in his first two seasons, Johnson vaulted to into the spotlight with an eight-catch, 158-yard performance in Sunday’s 37-34 overtime loss to the Baltimore Ravens.’

‘"You got to do what you’ve got to do to get the job done," he said with a sheepish grin. "It’s all about being aggressive, getting guys on the ground, throwing guys off balance."’

‘"As I grew up through this league as an offensive coach, I always in my mind thought preparing for a 3-4 was a little more difficult," he told the Buffalo media during a conference call this week. "The more I talked to people and learned about this game and learned about defense, the more sure I was of how I wanted to play defense if I ever got an opportunity like I have here."’

‘Corner’s non-interception was a byproduct of the rule passed in 2008 that said there are no force-outs. A player must come down with both feet inbounds, regardless of being pushed by an opponent. The rule, however, also states that a player can’t be picked up in the air and carried out of bounds. In that case, a force-out still applies. But on the Corner play, when the Ravens’ Anquan Boldin wrapped up Corner and fell out of bounds with him, it wasn’t an unnatural act. Boldin didn’t take any extra steps to "carry" him.’

‘The second-year pro has started each of the last five games after missing the season opener and has recorded 26 tackles.’

‘Chiefs 33, Bills 30.’

‘Byrd has a thigh injury and worked out on a limited basis Thursday, a day after missing practice. He’s yet to miss a game this season despite having minor hip surgery in August.’

‘He might have to get used to it. Coach Chan Gailey said there’s no telling when Maybin might get a chance to play as the winless Bills (0-6) prepare to play at Kansas City (4-2) on Sunday.’

‘Chiefs 34, Bills 24.’

‘”They hadn’t been to the playoffs for a while and they were trying to change some mindsets,” said Bills head coach Chan Gailey. “That was one of the biggest challenges. They’ve done a good job of getting their team to where it is today. We’ve got that same challenge to turn the mindset around and to have an opportunity to go win a championship.”‘
