Detroit, MI (SportsNetwork.com) – Kyle Orton passed for 230 yards and two
touchdowns as the Buffalo Bills routed the New York Jets 38-3 Monday night at
Detroit’s Ford Field.
The game was moved from Ralph Wilson Stadium after the venue was deemed
unplayable due to several feet of snow that fell last week, crippling Buffalo
and neighboring areas.
Boobie Dixon rushed for a touchdown and blocked a punt that was recovered in
the end zone for another score, helping the Bills (6-5) keep their playoff
hopes alive.
Michael Vick struggled mightily against the Buffalo defense, completing only
7-of-19 passes for 76 yards. He limped off the field after a third-quarter
interception and was replaced by Geno Smith, who saw his first action since he
was intercepted three times on eight passes in the first quarter against the
Bills on Oct. 26.
Smith finished with 89 yards on 10-of-12 for the Jets (2-9).
