‘The Buffalo Bills already have been terrorized by Watt this year and will face Rodgers this afternoon in Ralph Wilson Stadium.’

‘Packers 27, Bills 20.’

‘Tiebreakers are a problem, and I can’t see them winning two of the last three. But a win would ensure their first .500 season in 10 years. I’ve given up trying to predict Pegula’s thinking, but that might be enough to save Marrone’s job in the eyes of a forgiving owner.’

‘The legal papers allege “that at the times Mr. Goodell affixed his rubber stamps to the contracts, he and the NFL knew that the Jills were employees rather than independent contractors following a 1995 decision of the National Labor Relations Board.”‘

‘”You turn on the film and he’s something special,” Matthews said. “He’s obviously in the running for MVP year in and year out, probably having a second MVP season this year. He’s smart, he knows what the defense is doing, he knows where the weaknesses are, he knows where to pick on. And he’s got a bunch of players who can complement him on the offensive side of the ball. It’s a hard offense to contain, and we know that from going up against him in practice.”‘

‘Packers 31, Bills 20.’

‘”The case is that we need to continue to be more consistent and keep drives going and, like I said before, score when we get into the red zone,” the Bills second-year head coach said. “It’s not like we haven’t been in there. It’s not like we haven’t moved the ball better than we have in the past, but we haven’t scored. That’s what you need to do in this game to win.’

‘The Bills boast one of the best defenses in the NFL, but do they stand a chance against the offensive juggernauts that hail from a small town in Wisconsin?’

‘You remember him well. Alex Van Pelt, or AVP for short, was a member of the Bills quarterbacks room for nine years from 1995-2003, then jumped into a two-year radio career as a color analyst on the Bills Radio Network, then jumped into coaching on the offensive side of the ball with the Bills. Now he’s the quarterbacks coach with the Packers, in charge of a Rodgers-led room that also includes one-time Bill Matt Flynn.’
