Bills cornerback Leodis McKelvin has a prediction for Thursday night's game against the Dolphins, and from the sound of it, he expects things to go a lot like they did in Week 2, when Buffalo beat Miami 29-10.
"S---, we're going to go out and beat that ass. Point blank. Period," McKelvin said, via ESPN.com.
The Dolphins heard about McKelvin's comments and as you can imagine, they didn't take too kindly. Safety Jimmy Wilson called them "cheap."
"For someone to just jump off saying things like that before the game being played, I don't know if he's trying to rally his team together or what they're trying to do," Wilson said Monday. "It just seems cheap. But we're not worried about it. We're going to go handle our business. We know how important these AFC games are to win. We got to avenge ourselves."
Then there were Dolphins' players like Cameron Wake, who didn't seem to care at all about McKelvin's threat to "beat that ass."
"I couldn't care less," Wake said. "When football starts becoming a debate, then I'd care about words. Until that day, football pads win and lose games, and that's what I care about."
If the Bills are going to win, they're going to have to avoid big mistakes like the one McKelvin made against the Chiefs on Sunday. During the fourth quarter, McKelvin fumbled a punt that the Chiefs recovered at Buffalo's 26-yard line. Two plays later, Alex Smith scored what proved to be the winning touchdown.
McKelvin's reaction to his fumble?
"S--- happens," McKelvin said. "If you f--- up on any kind of thing you've got going on. This is my job. It's my job. I take this s--- to heart."
As you can tell, McKelvin has a way with words.

Dolphins RB Lamar Miller to be limited in Week 10 if he plays
Miami Dolphins' reporter Adam Beasley of the Miami Herald reported Saturday, via his Twitter feed, that lead running back Lamar Miller (shoulder) is expected to be active but will likely be limited in the Dolphins' Week 10 game versus Detroit.Miller leads the Dolphins in rushing yards on the season with 518 and has added five touchdowns. Daniel Thomas and Damien Williams will likely get an increased amount of work, sharing the load with Miller.
Miller has been a decent fantasy option this season, ranking 13th in PPR leagues. He's on pace for 1,036 yards and 10 touchdowns, but being limited against a Lions team that allows the second-fewest rushing yards per game in the league will likely knock him off that pace.Miller's status should be monitored leading up to the 1 p.m. Eastern kickoff. With so many teams on bye this week, it's likely that, if active, you're using Miller if you have him. Just lower your expectations a bit. He's someone to avoid in daily/weekly leagues.
