The team announced they had distributed passes for the Bills game on the 13th to 5,000 area children, including members of a number of peewee football teams, with the only requirement being that each of the kids wear a black eyepatch to the game.

Citing defensive end Charley Powell's “good attitude”, trainer George Anderson said the player would be ready to go against the Bills on the 13th, after deeming him “doubtful” yesterday because of a rib injury suffered against Patriots a week ago.
