Immediate Reactions: Arizona 41, Buffalo 17
‘I’ve openly wondered — both on the air and on the mic — how the
Bills would fare once they ran into a decent receiving corps, and they

Breaston filled in admirably for Anquan Boldin. Imagine if Boldin was
healthy and dressed. Sweet mercy.’
Bills lose Edwards, first game of season to Cards
‘Second-year quarterback Trent Edwards, a major reason Buffalo was one of three unbeaten teams entering the day, went down with a concussion on a fierce hit from Cardinals safety Adrian Wilson on the third play of the game. It was the Bills’ defense that collapsed after that.’
Arizona 41, Buffalo 17
‘Trent Edwards was forced to leave the game with a concussion on the third play from scrimmage and J.P. Losman struggled in relief. Losman accounted for three turnovers in throwing for 220 yards on 15-of-21 passing with a touchdown and an interception. Lee Evans hauled in an 87-yard TD catch, highlighting a two- catch, 100-yard effort while Marshawn Lynch was limited to 55 yards on 13 carries for the Bills (4-1), who rallied from a 14-6 halftime deficit last Sunday to down the St. Louis Rams, 31-14. The Bills were seeking their first 5-0 start since 1991.’
