The Bills had to be happy with the play of their quarterbacks and their defense in last night’s victory over the Lions. J.P. Losman was sharp in his brief appearance completing 5 of 6 passes for 43 yards. Rookie Trent Edwards put on another great display completing 18 of 24 passes for 182 yards. Craig Nall also made a brief appearance completing 3 of 5 passes for 29 yards. Rookie running back Dwayne Wright looked sharp carrying the football 12 times for 51 yards (4.3 ypc) to lead the Bills. Shaud Williams got his most work of the pre-season carrying the football 7 times for 24 yards (3.4 ypc). Fred Jackson pitched in with 23 yards rushing on 9 carries (2.6 ypc) with a TD run and he also caught 1 pass for 12 yards. Rookie 1st round pick Marshawn Lynch looked bad again carrying the football 6 times for 9 yards (1.5 ypc). WR Justin Jenkins led the way in the passing game with 5 grabs for 56 yards (11.2 avg). The Bills finished with 112 yards rushing on 39 carries (2.9 ypc) and they also completed 26 of 35 passes for 254 yards.

The defense looked pretty sharp last night for the Bills as they held the Lions to 73 yards rushing on 22 carries (3.3 ypc). The Bills also held the Lions highwire passing attack to 164 yards on 15 of 25 passing.
