't’s impossible to use words like “solid” or “decent” to describe anything else done by a quarterback who had a fumble returned for a touchdown and a pick-six on back-to-back plays in the second quarter. But Manuel managed to do some significant rewriting of what seemed to be his Bills swan song by doing plenty to help to spark a 28-0 run in the second half that allowed Buffalo to come screaming back from a 14-point halftime deficit to take a 31-27 lead with 5:21 remaining. He deserves credit for at least escaping most of one of the all-time meltdowns by a Bills quarterback with two second-half touchdown throws, including a perfect 58-yard strike to Marcus Easley to make it 27-24 with 6:33 left. And Manuel did it without his two best receivers, Sammy Watkins and Percy Harvin, and with that rebuilt right side of his line.'
