The Bills (0-5) sat out on a BYE Week after they lost 26-36 to Jacksonville, at home. Against the Jags, QB Ryan Fitzpatrick made 20 of 30 passes for 220 yards with three TD’s. RB Fred Jackson had 12 carries for 73 yards, while WR Lee Evans and Steve Johnson each added a TD. The Bills put up 220 pass yards, so they are capable of airing out the ball. Buffalo allows a league-worst 182ypg, so expect Ray Rice to have a tremendous game. After struggling early in the season, Rice has shown signs of improvement as he's rushed for 221 yards in his last two games. Nobody gets lower than the Rutgers product, and 100-150 yards against the weak Bills defense seems more probable than possible.

RB Ray Rice had 28 carries for 88 yards, while Anquan Boldin and Todd Heap each added a TD. The Ravens may have blown a 20-10 lead over the Patriots, but that shouldn't take anything away from this talented Baltimore team.
