Bills need Merriman to provide a power surge
Once one of the NFL's most feared pass rushers, Merriman has seen his playing time limited to just 59 percent of the team's snaps due to injuries. By comparison, fellow outside linebacker Chris Kelsay has played 80 percent of the time. Although Merriman was never one to pile up huge tackle numbers -- he has just seven on the season -- his sack total is the most haunting: zero.
All he might need is a few, dominant, emotionally charged plays to put an end to this played out, "What's wrong with Merriman?" story line. In any event, Merriman says he's getting healthy and while he doesn't concern himself with statistics, he wants to once again reach the level of play where he caused so much chaos.
