It has been nearly two years since Doug Marrone opted out of coaching the Buffalo Bills. Now the offensive line and assistant head coach in Jacksonville, Marrone makes his return to Western New York on Sunday when the Jaguars face the Bills at New Era Field.I hope its a miserable experience, current Bills head coach Rex Ryan said. We want to win, man. Our fans, this is as loyal a fan base as there is, so we want to create that miserable day for people, and the fans are a big part of it.This has been a miserable season for the Jaguars (2-8), who have lost five straight and will miss the postseason for the ninth straight year.Same old story, same old script, every week, cornerback Jalen Ramsey said after last weeks 26-19 loss to Denver. Its been frustrating, but its really getting extremely frustrating.That frustration has been accompanied by questions about the job security of head coach Gus Bradley, whose 14-44 record in three-plus seasons is the second-worst winning percentage (.241) by any coach in NFL history.Bradley told the Buffalo media on a conference call this week that he only hears criticism of his performance, when guys like you bring it up.Ryan, like Marrone before him, has faced criticism in Buffalo, despite winning as many games as he has lost since the start of last season. The Bills (5-5) snapped a three-game losing streak with a 16-12 win in Cincinnati last Sunday, keeping alive their hopes of ending their 16-season playoff drought, the longest in the NFL.Buffalo can improve to 6-5 for just the second time since 2009 and third time since 2001.We need this game in the worst way, Ryan said. This game is far too important for us not to put everything into it, and the preparations got to be tight.The Bills offense has been depleted by injuries but could be bolstered soon by the return of star wideout Sammy Watkins, who has missed the last seven games due to pain in his surgically-repaired foot. Watkins remains on injured reserve, but Ryan is hopeful he can play Sunday.If Im healthy enough to play and they think Im healthy, then Im going to be out there, Watkins said. Im not going to go out there unhealthy.Buffalo will be without its other starting receiver, Robert Woods (knee), while running back LeSean McCoy (thumb) is expected to play after undergoing surgery on Sunday night.On defense, Pro Bowl lineman Marcell Dareus appears to be healthy -- and rounding into football shape -- after missing eight of the first nine games due to suspension and injuries to his hamstring and groin.Emotionally, the Bills are still healing from a 34-31 loss to the Jaguars in London last season.It left a bad taste in our mouth, guard Richie Incognito said. We definitely arent overlooking them.Ryan called the Jaguars, the best two-win team Ive ever seen.The Jaguars do have the No. 7 ranked defense but have the least takeaways (five) and the most giveaways (22). Quarterback Blake Bortles has been intercepted in eight of 10 games and is tied with the Jets Ryan Fitzpatrick for the most interceptions in the league (13).Bortles is dealing with a sprained right throwing shoulder but doesnt expect that to keep him out of the lineup. Ill be ready to go Sunday, he said.Running back T.J. Yeldon (ankle) is less likely to play, and the Jaguars could also be without defensive end Jared Odrick (shoulder), cornerback Aaron Colvin (concussion), linebacker Dan Skuta (back) and Abry Jones (ankle). Tight end Mercedes Lewis (calf) and left guard Patrick Omameh (foot) were placed on injured reserve this week.A winning record may not be possible, but the Jaguars are still hoping to string together wins down the stretch.There is no sense in folding up shop and getting ready for next year, Bortles said. Weve got six more games to play and a chance to go 8-8. ... I think the guys are excited about the opportunity. Not excited about where were at, but excited to have six more chances. Lakers Jerseys 2020 . In Europe, top teams seem to be largely happy with their squads after spending nearly $1 billion in the off-season. And although English league clubs are unlikely to splash cash in January, Arsenal and Chelsea could be tempted to strengthen their squads with new strikers. Lakers Jerseys 2019 . After taking two big hits this week -- losing at home and dropping back-to-back games for the first time all season -- Indiana struck back by playing its most complete game of the year. https://www.lakersjerseycheap.com/ .J. -- Seven games into a disappointing season, New York Giants defensive catalyst Jason Pierre-Paul is getting the feeling hes back. Custom Los Angeles Lakers Jerseys . After a lengthy wait, persistent rain finally forced the postponement of the Nationals game against the Miami Marlins on Saturday night. The teams, and a few thousand fans, waited nearly four hours from the 7:05 scheduled start time before an announcement was made shortly before 11 p. Stitched Lakers Jerseys . Bradwell was scheduled to become a free agent Tuesday. Born and raised in Toronto, Bradwell is entering his sixth CFL season, with all six played for his hometown Argonauts. Clay Matthews and Julius Peppers gave in to the NFLs ultimatum that they cooperate with the leagues investigation into their alleged use of performance-enhancing drugs for one reason:We werent willing to fall on the knife for something we didnt do, Matthews told reporters in Kansas City following the Green Bay Packers preseason game Thursday night against the Chiefs, a 17-7 loss.Both maintained their innocence from the start when they were linked to PEDs by an Al-Jazeera America report in December, but they (along with Pittsburgh Steelers linebacker James Harrison) werent cleared until Wednesday?-- a week after they finally agreed to sit down with league investigators.They agreed to talk after the NFL said the players could face a suspension if they didnt cooperate by Aug. 25.Peppers said he wouldve liked the situation to have been resolved sooner.I feel like we all couldve handled the situation a little differently to get better results, [but] Im pleased with how it turned out, Peppers said. Thats pretty much it.Matthews said he was never worried about being suspended until tthe league gave them a deadline to talk, but he is still bothered that he had to answer to what he called ridiculous allegations.ddddddddddddWhos to say that somebody can just come out and say anything and next thing you know youre sitting down for something thats absolutely ridiculous, as it was in this case, Matthews said. Like I said, I maintained my innocence. I really had nothing to worry about until those ultimatums were put in place, and at that point, we sat down for the interviews and were ultimately cleared.When asked whether he made the decision to be interviewed by the league on his own or if the NFL Players Association told him to do it, Peppers said: It was a process.There was a lot of back-and-forth for months, Peppers said. We communicated with the PA back and forth about how to best handle it, so I think last week we came to a decision that we needed to just go ahead and do it and hopefully get it resolved, and thats what happened.
