‘You Like That!’: Cousins, Skins Top Eliminated Bills 35-25

“The Bills have missed the playoffs for 16 straight years, giving them the longest current streak in all of professional sports”, according to Football Analyst Matt Sabuda. It’s suddenly all become so simple for the Washington Redskins: Win their game against the Philadelphia Eagles next weekend, and coach Jay Gruden’s club will clinch the NFC East title.

“Who knows what’s going to happen?”

“We had a lot on our hands”. But we have a job to do before that, and that’s where my focus is, is on right here and right now.

Buffalo fell behind 28-3 to the Redskins early on Sunday and never really had a chance to mount a comeback. There was no pass rush, not unusual this season, and the defensive backs had a tough time covering DeSean Jackson and Jordan Reed, who combined for 13 catches for 237 yards and three touchdowns. The final score doesn’t adequately reflect how inept and uninspired Rex Ryan’s squad was during the first half of this fiasco.

Jackson agreed, saying: “It was a big play coming out of the half”.

Washington will try to get a deal done with Cousins as soon as possible, but is willing to slap the franchise tag on him if necessary, keeping him in the burgundy and gold at least one more season and guaranteeing him around $19 million for that one year of work. “That’s what I love to do for my team”. Finally, Taylor’s 450 rushing yards are third among quarterbacks behind Newton and Wilson. “That was a huge stop”, Gruden said.

Taylor and the Buffalo Bills lost to the Washington Redskins, 35-25, eliminating the Bills from playoff contention. “He had played more snaps this game than he had all season, and right at the end of the game he suffered a high-ankle sprain, so that obviously doesn’t look good”, Ryan said.

“I had conversations with guys about how tough I thought going against Rex’s defenses were and I read the comments but it didn’t show up throughout the week if that makes sense”, Wood said. “And I think the feeling is mutual”. “It put me in a position to be successful”. “When it’s a time when it’s desperately needed, or time to make a play and there’s nowhere else to go, having that ability to bring the ball down, be smart, and not get hit helps us tremendously”.

But I’m not sure it would have mattered since Johnston seemed to be answering a different question about Washington whenever Albert tried to get him to talk about the Bills.

I have to admit, it was one of those days when you were thankful for Twitter.

“If we win and we’re 10-4, or whatever, hey, hats off”, he said. We can’t have the scions of our royal sporting family taking pot shots at the home team, no matter how pathetic their performance. We control our destiny. “We want to go out there and lay it all on the line for each other”. We came up short as a defense and as a team.
