Bills Team Report (Yahoo! Sports)
Quarterback Trent Edwards faced some adversity at the end of his rookie year, as the Bills, after getting to the periphery of playoff contention at 7-6, dropped three straight games to end the year with a thud and out of the postseason for the eighth consecutive year.
After Monday night's horrible 29-27 home loss to Cleveland, the Bills are now 5-5, their playoff chances severely damaged, and Edwards is in crisis mode.
