The Perry Fewell Era — probably only seven games worth — is under way today at Ralph Wilson Stadium. The Bills took the field about 11:20 this morning and are going through their first workout with Fewell as the new head coach after he replaced the fired Dick Jauron Tuesday. Not a whole lot looked different, though the one noticeable change is that Ryan Fitzpatrick is taking the primary reps at quarterback instead of Trent Edwards. There was a report Tuesday, before Jauron was fired, that Fitzpatrick was going to supplant Edwards as the starter for Sunday's game in Jacksonville. Fewell later confirmed that would be the case."

Quarterback Trent Edwards was at practice Wednesday, though he only did limited individual reps as he continues to recover from the concussion he suffered against the New York Jets. "I'm good, it's good to be back," Edwards said. "I wasn't here last week and it was kind of lonely at the house, but now I'm feeling better each day and I'm glad to be back." Edwards said his post-concussion headaches have "slowly but surely" started to go away, and that he's not worried. "It's the same as any other injury for me, really," said Edwards, who also suffered a concussion last year at Arizona. "It's an injury and once you get past it there's not any looking back. Any time you look back that's not ..."

Trent Edwards was absent Wednesday from Bills practice, and the strange thing is that it seems he was hardly missed. Buffalo's struggling starting quarterback was told to stay home and rest as part of the team's protocol for treating concussions, so Edwards was not involved in meetings, workouts or any part of practice. In fact, he's not even allowed to talk on the phone or text. In his stead, Ryan Fitzpatrick ran the first-team offense in practice, and afterward, comments made by several players indicated that it really wouldn't matter to them who starts Sunday when the Bills travel to Carolina to take on the Panthers. "I wouldn't really say there's any difference from my standpoint," ..."

Quarterback Trent Edwards was not in attendance at practice today, advancing speculation that he will not play Sunday when the Buffalo Bills face the Carolina Panthers in Charlotte, N.C. Edwards suffered a concussion - his second in little more than a year - in last week's game against the New York Jets. Ryan Fitzpatrick came off the bench and engineered a 16-13 overtime win that snapped Buffalo's three-game losing streak. Fitzpatrick, 26, would start against the Panthers and was taking the bulk of today's practice repetitions with normal No. 3 QB Gibran Hamdan backing him up. Edwards was scheduled for further testing."

The status of Bills quarterback Trent Edwards remained status quo on Monday, meaning his condition will not be updated publicly until at least Wednesday. Coach Dick Jauron said Edwards was able to fly back from New York with the team Sunday night, but he had no more details on the concussion Edwards suffered in the second quarter of Buffalo's 16-13 victory over the Jets. "We'll take that day to day and see how he comes out of this thing," Jauron said. Edwards was replaced by backup Ryan Fitzpatrick, who helped lead Buffalo back from a 13-3 halftime deficit. Fitzpatrick completed only 10 of 25 passes for 116 yards on a windy day at the Meadowlands, but one was a perfectly thrown slant to ..."

All around him in a silent, heartbroken locker room, Trent Edwards' teammates were shedding their equipment and traipsing into the shower to wash away the stench of a truly horrific loss to the New England Patriots Monday night. Edwards couldn't bring himself to do it. He sat there on the stool in front of his stall, still fully padded sans his helmet, and just stared blankly at nothing, as if he was trying to conjure up a scenario in his mind that would alter the result of Buffalo's 25-24 defeat at Gillette Stadium. Finally, after some of the Bills had already headed for the buses that would transport them to the Providence airport for the short but miserable flight home, Edwards removed ..."

If anyone in Bills Nation saw that victorious performance coming from Buffalo on Sunday in Denver, pat yourself on the back, because you most certainly were in the minority. There were so many reasons to believe that the Bills - with nothing to play for in terms of the playoff race - were going to fly out West and merely go through the motions, especially on a day that only an ice fisherman could appreciate. And after 15 minutes, those fears were fully realized as the Bills couldn't have looked worse, or been more outplayed in falling behind 10-0. But those of you who didn't flick the TV off to get back to more productive duties such as wrapping Christmas presents or shoveling the driveway ..."
