    Tuesday QB - Buffalo News

    Ryan Fitzpatrick’s fifth game-winning drive of his career, in which he directed the offense 80 yards and converted two fourth downs, sealed the Buffalo Bills’ thrilling 38-35 come-from-behind victory Sunday against the Oakland Raiders.
    The drive, which took 15 plays and some creative sets and positioning of receivers by coach Chan Gailey, was capped by David Nelson’s 6-yard reception where running back C.J. Spiller was used as a decoy. Here’s a look at the final drive that led to the Bills’ improbable comeback win:

    I remember that one fateful day when Coach took me aside. I knew what was coming. "You don't have to tell me," I said. "I'm off the team, aren't I?"
    "Well," said Coach, "you never were really ON the team. You made that uniform you're wearing out of rags and towels, and your helmet is a toy space helmet.
    You show up at practice and then either steal the ball and make us chase you to get it back, or you try to tackle people at inappropriate times."
    It was all
    true what he was saying. And yet, I thought something is brewing inside the head of this Coach.
    He sees something in me, some kind of raw talent that he can
    mold. But that's when I felt the handcuffs go on.

    so many plays of the game and this one was one of them.
    Fitzpatrick can thank Jones for thinking like a defensive back on the next play. Jones ran a fade into the left corner of the end zone and Chris Johnson read the play, positioning himself for the interception but Jones alertly batted it out of his hands.

    "I can give you all the coaching cliches about that we work on it, we spend time on it and all that," Gailey said about the Bills' success in the red zone. "The bottom line, it's execution of being able to defeat the defenses that you play each week."
    It's like Gailey watched tape of Dick's PC's and labeled them "What NOT to say"
