McGahee Not Ready: Gregg Williams held his usual weekly press conference today, said that Willis McGahee is not ready to play yet but his positive attitude may help him get on the field this year. The Bills will make a decision on whether or not to activate him after today's practice. He said McGahee has worked hard since he's been in Buffalo but they won't know how he'll hold up until he gets into a game.
Technique Emphasized During Bye Week: Williams also said that the team got a little predictable, especially rushing the passer from the front four. He said they need to win one on one battles when they have them. The coach knows the team will have to play well to go down to Texas and win the game. He feels the Cowboys run the ball real well and have good sideline to sideline linebackers. They are also an attacking defense which is out of character for a Bill Parcells' coached team. On the passing game, he feels their were techinique stuff that needed to be tweaked over the bye week including getting back to the basics on route running, drop backs, and throwing accuracy.

Defense Rocks; Offense Sinks: It was another typical road game for the offense and another solid effort by the defense. The result was the same, a Bills loss. The offense went a fourth straight road game without scoring a touchdown. This game wasn't a rout, thanks to a defense that shutdown the Cowboys. The one thing the defense didn't do, was force turnovers and make the big play, that was the difference in the game. Our grades will be high for the defense and pathetically low for the worst offense in the league.
