Buffalo Bills Back With Matt Cassel as the Favorite to Start

"While this isn’t necessarily a surprise, it may be an indication of Ryan’s thinking going forward, which will raise cheers from the Buffalo supporters who never considered Manuel their starting quarterback of the future. The key move was acquiring LeSean McCoy in a trade with Philadelphia to lead what Ryan vows to be a “ground-and-pound” running attack. “I think I’m the only (coaching candidate) who brought it up, about fielding a team that would represent this community, and recognizing the loyalty of the fan base”."

"Jim Kelly is heading back under the knife this week, getting surgery seven months after a doctor declared the Buffalo Bills legend cancer-free.Jim’s wife, Jill Kelly, posted an update on her Facebook page on Wednesday afternoon saying that Jim was about to go into surgery.She later shared more details on Instagram, saying Jim had a permanent eye duct inserted after his was damaged from chemotherapy and radiation."

Rex hints at timetable for QB competition

"The Buffalo Bills made a bold trade when they shipped promising linebacker Kiko Alonso to the Philadelphia Eagles for LeSean McCoy. Both players filled a need for each respective team, and both are expected to thrive for their new teams.For McCoy, head coach Rex Ryan has high hopes for his star running backs. On Wednesday, he made a strong prediction for Shady McCoy’s numbers in 2015, saying 1,000 yards on the ground and through the air is a not out of the question.“LeSean McCoy is a special back, a very talented guy,” Ryan said. “His merits stand up for themselves, he’s led the league in rushing, but he’s a multi-dimensional guy. He can dominate a game in the passing game and the running game, so that’s what we’re going to use him for, that Marshall Faulk — does he have 1,000 receiving and 1,000 rushing? That’s a real possibility.”"

"Bills head coach Rex Ryan says it’s still early in the process for the coaching staff when it comes to deciding on a starting quarterback. On Tuesday however, he hinted that the three-man quarterback competition to be Buffalo’s starting signal caller could be close to finalized by the time they reach the team’s third preseason game.“I think we’re going to look at it over at least a two game stretch,” said Ryan of the quarterback competition. “That’s where there will be more balance (with playing time). Each guy will get a shot. Seattle had a similar thing with (Tarvaris) Jackson, (Matt) Flynn and then the other quarterback (Russell Wilson). Let’s just hope it works out the same way.”"
