Buffalo Bills Players Still Support Chan Gailey and Other AFC East News

There has been some outcry over a few of the decisions made by Bills head coach Chan Gailey.

Heck, I've been part of that outcry.

But the Bills players want nothing to do with it. Bills linebacker Bryan Scott said, per Jay Skurski of The Buffalo News:

"

"Everyone has counted us out, and he's the one who put things back in perspective. He's like, 'Look, this is where we stand. The season is far from over for us. There's so much football left to be played. Don't let the naysayers get in our heads.' Seeing a leader like that, how can you not stand behind that?"

"

Criticism is fair, even after a win, but the fact remains, the Bills won. There's no better way for the players to get behind the coach in a hurry than to pick up a win. That's not to say they weren't before, but were it not for a blocked field goal at the end of regulation followed by a huge interception in overtime, the tone might be a lot different.

What's more important for the Bills, though, is how they build on this momentum. The Bills need to do better both as a team and a coaching staff if they want to win in less dramatic fashion in the future.
