McDermott Presser: Sean McDermott addressed the media after tonight's third preseason loss of the summer. He said he has no updated on Tyrod Taylor at this time. He was disappointed in Marcell Dareus for violating a team rule. His hope is he will learn from it and move forward and they will revisit the issue when they get back to Buffalo. It was an unfortunate situation with Tyrod but he liked the way they were able to handle the sudden change. Nathan Peterman was poised in the huddle and they moved the ball at times but there were times they didn't move the ball. He reiterated that Tyrod is their starter. They did like how Peterman handled the situation though. They gave themselves a chance to win at the end but didn't do it and that is a mindset they need to have as they continue to grow. The defense played well overall and they weren't in great situations field position wise but they gave them a chance to win the game. The penalty problems that plague them is something that they have to continue to work at until they get it right. On Jonathan Williams the coach said he's been battling some things and he will get his reps going forward they wanted to give him a little more time. He is planning on playing him a lot on Thursday night. When used right, a tight end can be a quarterback's best friend and Charles Clay has the skill set they like for the position.

Bills Lose To Ravens 13-9: For the second week in a row T.J. Yates had a chance to bring the Bills down for a comeback win and for the second week in a row the final drive fell short when Brandon Reilly fumbled it away inside the 10 yard line. The Bills fell to 0-3 in the preseason with a 13-9 loss in Baltimore. They led 7-3 in the time the starters were in the game as Nate Peterman drove them to their only touchdown just before halftime as Mike Tolbert ran it in from the one yard line. Tyrod Taylor left the game in the first quarter with a concussion. Injury Page.

Who Helped Themselves: Shareece White has the inside trail on a starting job at cornerback and helped himself with a nice pass breakup to force a punt on the Ravens first series although he may have got away with a penalty. Nathan Peterman helped himself with the 11 play, 83 yard drive to the Bills first touchdown during the two minute drill just before halftime. He was 4 for 6 for 34 yards on the drive and was aided by a pass interference and a roughing the punter penalty. He struggled at times and the team likely doesn't want him starting opening day but they may feel now he is ready for substantial backup work. He finished 11 of 23 for 93 yards. Charles Clay was heavily involved in the offense with four receptions for 47 yards on seven targets. Joe Banyard made his case to make the team as the third halfback making the most of his reps with Jonathan Williams not playing apparently because of the slight knee injury he suffered in practice this week. He had 7 carries for 25 yards. Brandon Reilly made a magnificent catch on the final drive of the game to convert a fourth down. He then turned it over on his next reception. E.J. Gaines seemed to be the best option to start at corner.

Who Hurt Themselves: Marcell Dareus and Kevon Seymour hurt themselves by not playing. Seymour had a shot at the starting job but couldn't take the field because of his shoulder injury. Dareus just considers to self destruct as he was sent home for violating team rules. Tyrod Taylor needed a good performance but that didn't happen. He was awful in his first two series and then to add injury to insult was sent into concussion protocol when his head hit the turf hard. He was forced to leave the game and was ruled out quickly with a concussion. The offensive line was horrible once again. The pass protection constantly broke down and got Taylor hurt. They were called for four penalties 20 minutes into the game including an illegal motion penalty on Jordan Mills that negated a third down conversion. T.J. Yates got all the second team snaps since Nathan Peterman took most of the first team snaps. He didn't help himself since his first pass was picked off. He didn't see Philly Brown running wide open downfield on another play. Vlad Ducasse continued his horrible play at right guard, why they are looking at him as a starter is beyond my comprehension. Sean McDermott takes another hit because the penalty issue is getting worse as they were penalized a whopping 16 times for 122 yards.

Wood Extension: The Bills announced they have given Eric Wood a two year extension. Ian Rapoport reports the deal gives him $16M in new money with an additional $5.275M this year. They also likely lowered the cap hit as well. There were rumors that Wood was not part of the new regime's vision but that obviously is not the case as he will likely end his career where it started in Buffalo. Brandon Beane said he's still playing well and a leader up front who they are trying to build around.

Dareus Sent Home: The Bills announced that Marcell Dareus was sent home for violating a team rule. The news was first reported by Jason LaCanfora who said he saw Darues arrive at M&T Stadium at 5pm while his teammates were already on the field. Dareus might not have played anyway because of a quad injury but the move shows that the new regime will not let him get away with any issues. Brandon Beane said he didn't leave up to the expectations and standards they have. He called it a team only matter and he will discuss futher discipline with Sean McDermott. He also said, a guy with his contract status, you'd hope he'd be a better leader than that. Eight other players will not dress tonight with injuries as Kevon Seymour, Jeremy Butler, Jordan Matthews, Cordy Glenn, Tanner Vallejo, Trae Elston, Colt Anderson, and Rod Streater. Seymour not playing may rule him out of the starting corner battle.
