The joke's on Toronto with Bills series
By MIKE ZEISBERGER, QMI Agency

Sorry, Toronto, but in some ways Bills offensive lineman Eric Wood was right.

Maybe calling the Bills in Toronto series “a joke” was a bit brash on Wood’s part. Still, anyone who takes issue with Wood’s criticism probably wasn’t at the Rogers Centre for the Bills-Seahawks game on Sunday, an event where atmosphere went to die.

We will agree with Wood’s choice of words when it comes to Toronto games being billed as a Bills home contest, a suggestion that really is “a joke.” In fact, Seattle coach Pete Carroll hinted that his Seahawks felt like the host side in the contest, referring to the Rogers Centre crowd as “12th Man North.”













Do you think Chad Johnson can still play at a high level in the NFL?
  Yes, he is a talented receiver
  No, he is too old to play
  CFL might be a better option
