Bills | Thin at tailback early in the season
Sun, 06 Sep 2009 22:41:23 -0700 Chris Brown, of BuffaloBills.com, reports Buffalo Bills head coach Dick Jauron said the team didn't make any easy moves when it came to cutting players at the deadline.

Bills | Want to manage Lynch workload
Thu, 16 Jul 2009 08:10:16 -0700 Chris Brown, of BuffaloBills.com, reports the Buffalo Bills coaching staff wants to effectively manage the carries of RB Marshawn Lynch this season due to his physical running style. The coaching staff plans to do so by making use of RBs Fred Jackson and Dominic Rhodes in 2009. To what degree the two will be used to spell Lynch remains to be seen. The Bills plan to run with more no huddle this season, so the added tempo will reduce time between snaps and wear running backs out quicker. Lynch, by the way, has bulked up to 230 pounds, but he said the extra mass has not caused him to lose a step this year.
Bills | Rhodes to help lessen the load on Lynch and Jackson
Thu, 16 Jul 2009 08:09:00 -0700 Chris Brown, of BuffaloBills.com, reports Buffalo Bills head coach Dick Jauron wanted to add RB Dominic Rhodes as his third, experienced tailback during the offseason in order to help lighten the load on RBs Marshawn Lynch and Fred Jackson. Jauron liked the way both runners were utilized in the offense last year, but he wanted another dependable back to add to the mix, too. "We'd like to take a little bit of pressure off of them," Jauron said of Lynch and Jackson.
Bills | Lynch could be fresher later in the year
Thu, 16 Jul 2009 07:44:16 -0700 Chris Brown, of BuffaloBills.com, reports Buffalo Bills RB Marshawn Lynch traditionally finishes the year stronger than he starts. During his career, his yards per carry average in the first half of the season is 3.64. During the second half of the season, he has averaged 4.5 yards per carry during the past two years. Having RBs Fred Jackson and Dominic Rhodes on board this season should allow Lynch to be fresher down the stretch. Lynch, as reported, will miss the first three games due to a suspension.
