Lynch likely out
It looks like the Buffalo Bills will play their biggest game of the season without their No. 1 offensive weapon. Bills running back Marshawn Lynch was not able to practice Wednesday due to the sprained ankle he suffered in the win over Miami on Sunday. Coach Dick Jauron said he was "not optimistic" Lynch would play vs. the Patriots. Jauron said Lynch's injury is more significant than an "average" ankle sprain, and he could be out for multiple weeks. The Bills are expected to use both rookie Dwayne Wright and veteran Anthony Thomas in Lynch's place.
