Having lost four of their last five games to drop from first to worst in the AFC East, the Bills are feeling a sense of desperation. At 0-3 in the division and 5-4 overall, their margin for error in a tight playoff picture has all but disappeared.
But even this dire situation can't squelch the excitement the team's coaching staff and players are feeling heading into Monday night's game against Cleveland (3-6) at Ralph Wilson Stadium. Call it the power of Monday Night Football.
Yes, Buffalo isn't the golden child everybody thought when the team started 4-0. But the town and the stadium will still be rocking as the Bills host their Lake Erie neighbor.
"It's really an exciting week, obviously, to be back on Monday Night Football," coach Dick Jauron said.
