Gregg Williams: "We win as a team and we lose as a team. Offensively we did some great things on controlling the clock and it was real nice to see the defense come up with an important stop at the end of the ball game. It was good confidence for the team."

Week 8: Eric Moulds Postgame Quotes
Do you know that you guys have won three in a row?
"It's a lot of fun. However, I think at the end of the game we were flat. Drew got kind of mad at us and he really motivated us to finish the game the way we started. I think we need to learn how to close games out. I think that has been a problem for us. We need to finish what we start."

Buffalo 24, Detroit 17
‘Buffalo (5-3), which was just 3-13 last season, has won three straight games for the first time since November 2000. In all three games, it has shown flashes of an improving defense.’
Fanning the Frenzy
‘Let’s hear it for the Buffalo Bills. Where?

Bills Notebook: Mike Williams Inactive For Lions Game

Backup Johnson won't be shy
‘"I think his first three years, he was buried in Jacksonville behind Mark Brunell," Keyshawn Johnson said. "He came in, he played well, got traded to Buffalo. Here comes Little Corn Flakes. Little Corn Flake Flutie comes, he’s the town hero, all 5-foot-7 of him. In Buffalo, the underdog city. Rob gets an opportunity to play. He gets hurt. Flutie comes in, scores against Jacksonville, runs around, makes some plays. Everybody is yelling, "Yeah!’ So now they’re all against Rob. Rob comes back, makes a few bad plays, makes a few good ones. Boo. So he’s always in a battle there.’
Bills-Lions no longer a dog day afternoon

Bills know Lions pose fair share of problems

Midseason assessment sees positive signs
‘It says here that they are for real under that relative term. They have more weapons than flaws but most of all they have Bledsoe.’
A hard-knock life
‘Growing up with a drug-addicted mom pushed Charles Johnson to a suicide attempt. Fourteen years later, there’s no such thing as a bad day for the Bills’ receiver.’
Scouting report
‘The Bills have too many weapons on offense for the Lions’ defense to contain and will climb to 5-3 with a 30-24 victory.’
