These are some dark days for the Buffalo Bills as the Bills are currently out of the playoff race and now have to finish the season without one of their primary playmakers in LeSean McCoy.

McCoy suffered an MCL tear in his right knee and with only 2 games left and nothing to play for the Bills will likely just rest McCoy for next season.  Chicago Bears running back Matt Forte had a similar injury earlier on in the season and returned with no ill effects. It would be in the Bills best interest to just drop the rest of their games in hopes to land a higher draft pick.

There will need to be a lot of personnel changes in the offseason as Rex Ryan will need to find players who can fit his schemes correctly. Mario Williams has expressed his displeasure several times as he has been critical of Rex Ryan's defensive strategies. Williams could be one of the many players to walk away next season as the Bills prepare for Rex Ryan's second season as the head coach.

The Bills will likely utilize productive rookie Karlos Williams as the main back for these last 2 games of the season.
