Bills rout Jets 38-3, Saints flop again

SCOTT Chandler capped an emotionally draining week with a celebration for the fans back home in Buffalo during the 38-3 victory over the New York Jets on Monday night.

After catching a touchdown pass shortly before halftime, he began mimicking a shoveling motion, a nod to Bills fans who have spent the last few days digging out of several feet of snow. “It was a little bit of a tribute to the people of Buffalo,” Chandler said. “You want to do something special for our fans. They did a great job showing up for us tonight.”

After a week of frightening weather and an abbreviated practice schedule, Buffalo played one of its best games of the season. Kyle Orton threw two touchdown passes, and the Bills also had a key play on specials teams in the runaway win.

Buffalo (6-5) couldn’t even practice before arriving in Michigan on Friday, but it was the Jets (2-9) who looked out of sorts all night.

Also, Justin Forsett rushed for 182 yards and two touchdowns as Baltimore beat New Orleans 34-27 to hand the Saints their third consecutive loss.
