You can say the Bills just played bad, but New York victory wasn't really on offense side, their defense peaks as well with interceptions from Revis, Kyle Wilson and Antonio Cromartie, who returned his for a touchdown. Revis will not make the trip to Pittsburgh tonight due to concussion, and will be replaced with Wilson instead. Tim Tebow gained 11 yards on five carries while being used twice in the wildcat and in nine total offensive plays last week might get more action on the field tonight. Tebow ended the Steelers' playoff chances last season in that famous 80-yard touchdown pass on the first play of overtime.
