PITTSFORD, N.Y. -- Bills quarterback Kevin Kolb is showing signs of being a fast healer. A day after limping through his first practice since twisting his left knee, Kolb came out scrambling and firing one completion after another Tuesday. It was an impressive enough outing for coach Doug Marrone to suggest the seventh-year quarterback is on track to play in Buffalos preseason game against Minnesota on Friday. "I was happy today," Marrone said. "He lked really gd to the point where were going to get him ready to play." Kolb had missed eight days of training camp and the Bills preseason-opening 44-20 win at Indianapolis on Sunday after slipping on a wet rubber mat in practice Aug. 3. The veteran free-agent addition is competing with rkie first-round draft pick EJ Manuel for the starting job. The update wasnt as positive for receiver T.J. Graham, who was held out of practice a day after straining his groin. Marrone doesnt expect Graham to return until after the game Friday. The Bills are already down their two most experienced receivers. Starter Stevie Johnson is expected to miss at least another week after pulling his left hamstring on Aug. 2. Brad Smith is also sidelined with a hamstring injury. Also Tuesday, starting safety Aaron Williams limped off the field and did not return after experiencing what Marrone called cramps. Reserve offensive lineman Thomas Welch twisted his ankle near the end of practice while attempting to catch a pass in the end zone on a tackle-eligible play. Welch was shoved down by linebacker Nigel Bradham before he could make the catch. Kolb lked like a completely different player than a day earlier, when he hobbled around the backfield and struggled to complete a pass. Wearing only a sleeve on his left knee on Tuesday, Kolb showed great mobility to avoid being sacked by Alex Carrington. On the next snap, Kolb dropped back and completed a long pass over the middle to Marquise Gdwin. Later, he hit DaRick Rogers on another deep pass. "He had some great reads, some great throws, and loved having him out there," offensive co-ordinator Nathaniel Hackett said. "It was gd to have him back." Before practice, the Bills released reserve punter Brian Stahovich, in a move that opened the dr for incumbent Shawn Powell to retain his job. Powell enters his second season after replacing long-time veteran Brian Mrman a month into last season. The Bills had signed Stahovich following a minicamp tryout in April in order to compete with Powell. At Indianapolis on Sunday, Stahovich averaged 41.3 yards on three punts, landing two of them inside the 20. Stahovich played at San Diego State, and was initially signed with Indianapolis last year. He was cut before the start of the season.Wholesale Custom Saints Shirts .Y. -- Vancouver Canucks goaltender Roberto Luongo had little trouble picking up his first shutout of the season against a Buffalo Sabres team thats having trouble scoring goals.

Authentic Custom Saints Jersey . "It doesnt get any better than that," Giambi said. "Im speechless." The Indians are roaring toward October.

Cheap Saints Jerseys .C. -- After a listless first half, the Washington Wizards used a big third quarter run to beat the Charlotte Bobcats Bradley Beal scored 21 points and the Wizards used a 17-0 run in the third quarter to take control of what had been a close game and beat the Bobcats 97-83 on Tuesday night.LINCOLN, Neb. -- Bring on Oregon.Nebraska tuned up for the No. 24 Ducks with a 52-17 victory over Wyoming, which trailed by seven points late in the third quarter but saw the game get out of control because of Josh Allens six turnovers, all in the second half Saturday.Now a Nebraska program trying to regain national relevance can turn its full attention to one of the most anticipated games in Lincoln in years.Oregon, theyre no joke, said Jordan Westerkamp, who caught two of Tommy Armstrong Jr.s three touchdown passes and had 105 yards on four receptions. Theyre a top program in the entire nation. This will be our first big test. We have to take them extremely serious and have a great week of practice because theyre going to come ready to play.If we can get a win against Oregon, thatll be huge for our program. On a national level, just beating a team like that should propel us forward in a lot of peoples minds.Nebraska (2-0), which ran on 51 of 64 plays in last weeks 43-10 win over Fresno State, relied on the pass against Wyoming (1-1). Armstrong was 20 of 34 for 377 yards, and the Huskers finished with 412 yards through the air after backup Ryker Fyfe played the last two series.Armstrong set the schl career record for touchdown passes, with his 57th coming on a 9-yard pass to Westerkamp in the fourth quarter. The fourth-year starting QB was presented the game ball in the locker rm for his accomplishment.I couldnt do it without those guys, Armstrong said. They did a great job making plays -- a bunch of catches and yards after contact. We have a lot of season left, and Im excited about those guys out wide.Six of Wyomings last seven second-half possessions ended with turnovers -- five interceptions and a bad lateral by Allen that was counted as a fumble -- and the Huskers scored 28 points in the fourth quarter.There was a tipping point in the game, and sometimes they get away from you. That one did, Cowboys coach Craig Bohl said. I dont know where the exact tipping point was, but it was after one of those interceptions. The score starteed getting tough.ddddddddddddKieron Williams ran back an interception 23 yards for a touchdown, and Nate Gerry picked off two passes.I think its great to be 2-0 going into this game, Nebraska coach Mike Riley said. The more you win, the more exciting the next game gets. This one, being who they are and what they mean nationally and where we want to go, this is exciting.THE TAKEAWAYWYOMING: The Cowboys hung with the Huskers for three quarters, but there was no way Wyoming was going to survive six turnovers -- all in the second half. Allen did show flashes, like when he rolled right and threw a perfect strike on a 35-yard pass to Gentry for touchdown on a fourth-and-12 late in the first half.NEBRASKA: The Huskers put up some big offensive numbers, but they struggled again with personal fouls and other penalties, which could come back to bite them against better opponents. The defense shut down Wyoming star running back Brian Hill -- gd preparation for Oregons Royce Freeman next week.KEY NUMBERSWYOMING: Gentry had seven catches for 124 yards with one touchdown and now has five career 100-yard games, including two straight.NEBRASKA: Alonzo Mre had three catches for a career-high 109 yards, including a 63-yard touchdown. The Huskers five interceptions were the most since they picked off five passes against Idaho in 2010.UP NEXTWYOMING: The Cowboys return home to play UC Davis of the FCS Big Sky Conference for the first time. The teams have a one-game contract, with Wyoming paying a $400,000 guarantee.NEBRASKA: The Huskers game against Oregon is especially meaningful to Riley, the former Oregon State coach who was 4-10 against the Ducks with his usually-outmanned Beaver teams (1997-98, 2003-14).LAST WORDWe went into the fourth quarter down seven. It was within reach. It just didnt happen... Everyones hurting. Im hurting. I take this one completely on myself. I didnt put our team in a position to win, Allen said. ' ' '
