ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. -- LeSean McCoy scored twice and safety Aaron Williams returned a botched field-goal snap 53 yards for a touchdown in leading the Buffalo Bills to a 33-18 win over the Arizona Cardinals on Sunday.Quarterback Tyrod Taylor also scored on a 20-yard run at a time the Rex Ryan-coached Bills spent the past week taking the brunt of criticism after opening the season 0-2.The win also came on the heels of Ryan firing offensive coordinator Greg Roman and replacing him with running backs coach Anthony Lynn.McCoy scored on 24- and 5-yard runs, and finished with 110 yards rushing after combining for just 117 in his first two games. Taylor had 76 yards rushing, including a 49-yarder, the longest by a quarterback in team history.And suddenly, the Bills offense started resembling the one that led the NFL in yards rushing last season.This is what we do. This is what we are built for, guard Richie Incognito said. This is the way we were assembled in the offseason and its nice to see everything come to fruition.And Ryans defense started resembling the bully he envisioned when he was first hired in January 2015.A week after allowing 493 yards in a 37-31 loss to the New York Jets , the Bills limited Arizona to 348 yards, forced six punts and closed the game by intercepting Carson Palmer on each of Arizonas final four possessions.Stephon Gilmore had two interceptions.Arizona (1-2) unraveled a week after a 40-7 win over Tampa Bay, and had a five-game road winning streak snapped going back to last season.The Cardinals combined for just 2 yards net offense and no first downs on their first five possessions. Palmer finished 26 of 50 for 264 yards and was sacked five times.Im disappointed in the way we played. Im disappointed in myself, Palmer said.David Johnson scored on 4- and 22-yard runs for Arizona.The Bills took control in building a 30-7 lead on Williams fumble return with 2:25 left in the third quarter.With Chandler Catanzaro lining up to attempt a 32-yard field goal, Kameron Canadays snap sailed high and through the hands of holder Drew Butler. Catanzaro missed in an attempt to fall on the ball, and the ball squirted loose.Catanzaro also missed a last-minute field goal in the opener against New England because of a poor snap.Coach Bruce Arians placed the blame on the bad snap solely on Canaday.Grow the hell up, Arians said. It aint got nothing to do with anything but between his ears.Trailing 30-16 midway through the fourth quarter, the Cardinals had a golden opportunity slip through their fingers.Safety Tyrann Mathieu batted down quarterback Tyrod Taylors backward pitch intended for Robert Woods for a fumble. Mathieu failed twice attempting to scoop up the ball and instead kicked it out of bounds into the Cardinals sideline.The Bills defense then secured the victory on Arizonas next possession, when Gilmore intercepted Palmers pass up the left sideline intended for John Brown. The turnover led to Buffalo putting the game away with Dan Carpenter hitting a 45-yard field goal.DOUBLE DUTYCatanzaro was forced to take over the punting duties after Butler hurt his left ankle on the final play of the first quarter. Backed up in his own end zone, Catanzaros first punt traveled 47 yards.He then shanked his next punt early in the third quarter. It traveled just 19 yards and bounced out of bounds at the Cardinals 47.Arians called Butlers ankle as being severely sprained.Catanzaro did hit a 60-yard field goal , the longest in a Bills home game. The previous record was Bills kicker Steve Christie hitting a 59-yarder in 1993.FINALLY, FITZGERALDLarry Fitzgerald finally made a catch in Orchard Park.The Cardinals receiver extended the NFLs longest active reception streak to 182 consecutive games with a 3-yard catch on a crossing pattern midway through the first quarter. Fitzgeralds streak began during his rookie season and after he failed to make a catch in a 38-14 loss at the Bills on Oct. 31, 2004. It stands as the only game of his career hes not had a reception. He finished with seven catches for 60 yards.THEY SAID ITI dont care who plays quarterback. Steve Grogan can play quarterback. If Belichicks playing quarterback were coming after him, Ryan said looking ahead to playing the Bill Belichick-coached Patriots next week, and the uncertainty they have at quarterback.DEPLETED BILLSInjuries continued to hamper the Bills, who were down three starters in receiver Sammy Watkins, left tackle Cordy Glenn and cornerback Ronald Darby.Watkins has been bothered by a sore left foot he had surgically repaired in April. He then aggravated the injury when a teammate stepped on his foot during a walk-through last week.---AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and AP NFL Twitter feed: http://twitter.com/AP-NFLDiscount Fake NBA Jerseys .C. -- Calgarys Kevin Koe did it the hard way again.

But there were no tears, not a shred of frustration. Instead, there was -- to a man -- a sense of accomplishment.Their starting lineup included just three batters who were on the field for the season opener in Kansas City.Their third baseman and captain didnt play after May 27.Their starting first baseman had 23 at-bats after May 20.Their second baseman was done for the year on Aug. 27.Their shortstop was playing on a bum knee.Their regular catcher was benched after driving in one run in the seasons final month.Their star slugger, struggling with a strained quadriceps, hit one home run after Sept. 11.And four of their five highly touted projected starting pitchers were on the sidelines after seasons more notable for surgeries than strikeouts.In a season when MRIs were discussed more often than ERAs, not even seven shutout innings from Noah Syndergaard was enough, given the decimated offense for the defending NL champions.Im really proud of these guys, to handle all that adversity, Syndergaard said after Wednesday nights season-ending 3-0 loss in the NL wild-card game to Madison Bumgarner and the San Francisco Giants.Last year, they won their first NL pennant since 2000, reviving a franchise that seemed to be on spin cycle after the Bernard Madoff Ponzi scheme. And this year they filled the seats regularly at Citi Field, which rocked with energy as they overtook the Yankees in local television ratings. Just 60-62 in mid-August, they managed to finish 87-75 and clinch a playoff berth with a game to spare.I dont think you can say enough for what these guys did, said Jacob deGrom, one of the injured star pitchers. Everybody was pretty much counting us out at one point, and we battled back. ... Im proud to call them my teammates.Syndergaard pitched up to his Thor nickname , striking out 10 and walking three, throwing 42 thunderbolts to 98 mph or higher -- more than Philadelphia or Clevelands pitchers all season, according to Inside Edge. Curtis Granderson made a run-saving catch in a Willie Mays impersonation.But Jeurys Familia gave up a three-run homer to Conor Gillaspie in the ninth inning, a drive into the right-field bullpens that stunned the Citi Field crowd into silence.Noo more comebacks.dddddddddddd No more hope.Theyre hurting, but theres no reason to be, Mets manager Terry Collins said . They were written off so many times this summer and yet they kept fighting back. ... Youve got to have special people and special character to play in this town and in this environment, and thats in that room.Last year, Familia allowed a tying home run to Alex Gordon in the ninth of the World Series opener, and he was charged with three blown saves -- partly because of his defense. He knew the 96 mph offering to Gillaspie would be a home run as soon as the bat made contact.I missed the location, he said.Casey Stengel dubbed his early 1960s teams the Amazin Mets, terrible but entertaining. The 1969 championship club became the Miracle Mets, and the 1986 champs made a notorious bunch that partied as hard as it played. This years group was the Replace-Mets.Captain David Wright and second baseman Neil Walker watched the end of the season injured. Lucas Duda played sparingly after returning from a back injury. Asdrubal Cabrera powered through pain at short. Travis dArnaud watched Wednesday from the bench, and Yoenis Cespedes failed to replicate his power surge that helped lift New York to the World Series last season.T.J. Rivera, the second baseman against San Francisco, started the season in Triple-A Las Vegas and made his big league debut in mid-August at age 27, a Bronx boy done good.Rene Rivera, the 33-year-old catcher, was released by Tampa Bay in spring training before signing with the Mets, who also sent him to Vegas.James Loney, the 32-year-old first baseman, was sold by San Diego to the Mets in late May for the closeout price of $1 -- less than the subway fare from Manhattan to the ballpark.Now its time to look back at the positives and look at it as a positive experience, T.J. Rivera said. Its been a fun ride.There are fewer than 4 1/2 months until pitchers and catchers, ones the Mets hope report to Port St. Lucie, Florida, with soothed muscles, mended tendons, resuscitated ligaments and rejuvenated spirits.Were disappointed, Collins said, but well be able to get healthy, and well be back.
