‘"When Jay’s ready to play and do everything, he’ll be the starter," Wannstedt said. "I have no idea when that’s going to be."’

‘The dark cloud following Lucas recently has disappeared. He has helped the Dolphins to two straight victories and has 94 attempts without an interception. "Same guy physically," Coach Dave Wannstedt said. "Different guy mentally."’

‘In the past two games, Miami has 10 sacks and forced three turnovers while holding opponents to 130 yards rushing.’

‘Holding Eric Moulds and Peerless Price to 8-73 was key to the win.’

‘In losing three straight, the Bills (5-6) have combined for just three offensive touchdowns, while averaging 311 yards of offense over that stretch including a season-low 258 net yards in Sunday’s 31-13 loss to the New York Jets. That’s a dramatic drop from the 3.7 touchdowns and more than 405 yards of offense Buffalo averaged in its first six games.’

‘The Dolphins play at Buffalo on Sunday, meaning Ray Lucas will get another shot at the Bills — who forced him into six turnovers in his first start last month. But after committing nine turnovers in his first three starts, Lucas has played consecutive games without one.’
