CINCINNATI -- A.J. Greens right foot caught the turf as he was tackled on Cincinnatis first pass attempt. He rolled over onto his back and immediately grabbed his right hamstring.And he stayed down.In that moment, the Bengals knew the game -- and their season -- had taken a turn.Green suffered a significant injury to his right hamstring on Sunday and was taken off the field on a cart. Cincinnati couldnt do anything consistently without its big-play receiver during a 16-12 loss to the Buffalo Bills.Sure, Andy Daltons two interceptions played a role. And Mike Nugents two missed extra points left the Bengals (3-6-1) needing a touchdown instead of merely a field goal at the end.But nothing hurt more than the loss of Green, who was third in the league in catches and second in yards receiving.Definitely, missing A.J. was a big piece, and it hurt us a lot, running back Jeremy Hill said.Without Green to challenge deep, a Bills defense known for giving up big plays was able to clamp down.Daltons longest completion was 21 yards to Tyler Eifert. The Bills had given up seven passes of 50 yards or longer, and their secondary was under criticism for its poor play overall.When Green got hurt, the Bills were able to play their comfortable coverages.We had some things for him, cornerback Ronald Darby said. It changed things a lot when he went out.Coach Marvin Lewis had no information about the severity of Greens injury. The durable receiver didnt bend his leg as he was helped to the sideline and taken to a cart, an indication it was serious. The Bengals will have to figure on playing without him for the foreseeable future.You never want to lose a guy like that, Dalton said . Hes the best receiver in the league, so when you lose him it hurts.Some familiar problems returned as well. The Bengals couldnt get their running game going -- a problem all season long. Jeremy Hill had 62 yards, and the Bengals averaged only 3.4 yards per carry while getting 93 overall. Dalton had 10 of the yards.Cincinnati had the ball six times in the second half and managed only five first downs. They went three-and-out on four straight possessions.All season, its been mistake after mistake, Hill said.When they scored touchdowns in the first half, Nugent hit the upright on his two extra-point attempts, his kicks thrown off as he compensated for the wind. Nugent also missed an extra point and a field goal during a 27-27 tie with Washington on Oct. 30 in London.It just drives me crazy to have a poor performance that contributes to a loss, Nugent said. Thats the second time thats happened this year, that Ive contributed enormously to a loss. If I did what I was brought here to do, wed have two less losses, in my opinion.---AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and http://twitter.com/AP-NFL Cheap Soccer Jerseys China .

TORONTO -- The Blue Jays have finalized a three-year, $33 million contract with free agent Kendrys Morales, and say the deal lowers the chances that slugger Edwin Encarnacion will return next season.Hours after the team announced the addition of Morales on Friday, general manager Ross Atkins said talks with Encarnacion are ongoing, theyre still continuing.Encarnacion and Jose Bautista both became free agents after helping Toronto reach the playoffs.We still feel that both are realistic for us, but again, when you sign someone like Kendrys Morales, that decreases the likelihood of Edwin coming back tto the Blue Jays, but by no means eliminates that possibility, Atkins said.ddddddddddddhe 33-year-old Morales hit 30 home runs with 93 RBI while batting .263 for Kansas City last season.Atkins said second baseman Devon Travis had surgery on his right knee and is expected to be fine.
