‘”James Cook snap count last night was 52.6%,” wrote local radio man Howard Simon. “His 2nd lowest of the season. Lowest was in the blowout win over the Jets. As per ESPN, Cook was not on the field for any of the Bills 9 plays on 3rd down or their 1 play on 4th down. That’s inexcusable.”‘

Today in Bills stadium history: Oct. 15
‘2000 — Bills 27, Chargers 24 (OT) — The crowd was 72,351 for Buffalo’s wild comeback win against a winless Chargers opponent. Trailing 24-10 late in the third quarter, Rob Johnson threw a touchdown pass to Shawn Bryson, and led a 69-yard drive in the last two minutes of the fourth quarter (though a game-losing interception slipped through Junior Seau’s hands) setting Steve Christie’s tying field goal from short range. Johnson would then separate his shoulder on a Neil Smith hit early in OT, and after Henry Jones’ intercepted Jim Harbaugh, it was Doug Flutie putting the Bills (3-3) in position for Christie’s winning kick from 46 yards out. Eric Moulds caught 11 passes for 170 yards, Sammy Morris scored on a 32-yard run and lineman Jerry Ostrowski recovered a Jonathan Linton fumble for the only touchdown of his eight-year career.’
