PITTSFORD, N.Y. -- Buffalo Bills defensive tackle Marcell Dareus acknowledged talk is cheap.And this time the Buffalo Bills defensive tackle said he means it when discussing how hell respond from being suspended for violating the NFLs substance abuse policy for a second consecutive year.I really dont have much to say. Words really dont mean anything now, Dareus said after practice Wednesday. Its all action. And thats what Im going to do. Im going to come back and do the best I can.Dareus was contrite and embarrassed a day after the Bills announced their top-paid player was suspended without pay for the first four games of the season.Dareus said the suspension resulted from missing a drug test. He added he was first notified about the disciplinary action on Saturday, following Buffalos preseason-opening 19-18 loss to Indianapolis.Under NFL rules, missing a test is the same as testing positive.Saying everyone makes dumb decisions, Dareus has since apologized to his teammates, Bills staff and owners, as well as his family and fans.General manager Doug Whaley said hes frustrated and disappointed, but added Dareus has the teams support because hes family and were going to stick by family.That doesnt mean Whaleys not concerned about the actions of a player who a year ago signed a seven-year, $104 million contract extension.Were going to hold him accountable from here on out. And hes going to hold himself accountable, Whaley said Hes got to take a step himself. And its got to be on him.Dareus is a two-time Pro Bowl selection and has been a starter since Buffalo drafted him with the No. 3 pick in 2011.Last year, Dareus was suspended for the season-opener for violation of the substance abuse policy. He had been arrested and charged with possession of a controlled substance and drug paraphernalia after being stopped by Alabama State Police in May 2014.Dareus avoided trial, during which he would have faced felony drug charges, by agreeing to enter an NFL substance abuse program.That wasnt his only run-in with the law.In April 2015, he reached a plea agreement to have misdemeanor charges dropped for crashing his Jaguar into a tree near a busy suburban intersection the previous spring.Coach Rex Ryan takes Dareus at his word that hell do better, while acknowledging some might not believe him.Theres going to be some people that are cynical of him. Theres going to be people that will never give him the benefit of the doubt anymore, Ryan said. But for the majority of people, its more of a show-me thing. And I believe that moving forward this young man will learn from this experience and become a better person for it.The key, Ryan said, is for Dareus to make better choices with his life and understand how his actions impact the team.We all care a great deal for Marcell, Ryan said. We want to see this be a thing thats behind him once and for all, that this never happens again to him.Backup Corbin Bryant is expected to start in place of Dareus. Its a familiar role for Bryant, who last year started nine of Buffalos final 10 games after starter Kyle Williams sustained a season-ending knee injury. Another option is rookie third-round pick Adolphus Washington, who has spent time with the starters in training camp.Dareus suspension represents another blow to a defense that has already been thinned by injury.Rookie first-round pick, outside linebacker Shaq Lawson, had shoulder surgery in May and will miss at least the first month of the season. And second-round pick, inside linebacker Reggie Ragland, will miss the season after tearing a ligament in his left knee 10 days ago.Both were projected to start.Dareus becomes Buffalos second player to earn a four-game suspension to open this season. Last month, the NFL issued backup running back Karlos Williams had a similar suspension for violating the substance abuse policy.---AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and AP NFL Twitter feed: http://twitter.com/AP-NFL Aaron Judge Jersey . Los Angeles star goalie survived those perilous gymnastics with no problem, and he eventually backstopped the Kings to a skid-snapping win. Quick stopped 27 shots in his return from a 24-game injury absence, Jeff Carter scored the tiebreaking goal with 7:55 to play, and the Kings snapped their five-game losing streak with a 3-1 victory over the Vancouver Canucks on Saturday night. Thairo Estrada Jersey . Defencemen Drew Doughty, Shea Weber and forward Ryan Getzlaf also scored for the Canadians, who started their gold-medal defence 2-0. Goalie Roberto Luongo, getting the call in place of Game 1 starter Carey Price, was solid when needed in making 23 saves for the shutout. http://www.customyankeesjersey.com/custom-yogi-berra-jersey-large-234i.html . DAmigo scored twice in regulation and added the shootout winner as the Toronto Marlies edged the San Antonio Rampage 5-4 in American Hockey League action. Jacoby Ellsbury Jersey .J. Ellis hit two-run homers and the NL West champion Los Angeles Dodgers defeated the San Diego Padres 4-0 Saturday night. Joe Pepitone Jersey .com) - The game was all punts and field goals before Kodi Whitfields catch. FORT WORTH, Texas -- Oklahoma State running back Chris Carson bulled through one defender and then broke two tackles for his touchdown. Chris Lacy almost dragged another TCU player into the end zone on a long catch-and-run that set up another score.After running all over TCU in a 31-6 victory Saturday, the No. 11 Cowboys will be playing for the Big 12 championship in their next game. They have won seven in a row since losing their conference opener at Baylor.Its just been a great stretch for us, said Mason Rudolph, who ran for two touchdowns and threw for another score. Its a good position to be in.The Cowboys (9-2, 7-1, No. 13 AP) became the first team with two 100-yard rushers against TCU since 2007. Freshman running back Justice Hill (154 yards on 16 carries) and Carson (146 yards on 17 carries) combined for 182 yards after halftime when Oklahoma State added to a 10-6 lead.I told our team that in 2006-07-08-09, thats how we used to finish games. Thats what we were known for around here a long time, coach Mike Gundy said. It makes it a lot easier for me to sleep when we know we can run the ball.And its a big reason the Cowboys, who finished with 334 yards rushing and 541 overall, can become Big 12 champions if they beat Oklahoma in their regular-season finale after an open date.Oklahoma State scored on its only two drives in the third quarter to go ahead 24-6. Carson had his bruising 19-yard TD run and Rudolph scored on a 2-yard keeper after a 63-yard catch-and-run by Lacy , who dragged a defender almost 15 yards before finally being brought down.I was just trying so hard to drag him into the end zone, said Lacy, inspired by Carsons hard-running style. I was trying to do the same thing. He just brings some physicality to the team and its spreading.TCU (5-5, 3-4) had a chance to take the lead in the final minute of the first half after a 40-yard run by quarterback Kenny Hill . But Kyle Hicks took direct snaps in a wildcat formation on consecutive plays from the 1, getting stopped short on a third-down run and then overthrowing an open reeceiver.ddddddddddddThe Frogs, who have two more chances to get bowl eligible, suffered their most lopsided home loss in their 16 seasons under Gary Patterson. It was Pattersons 200th game as head coach.We definitely got our butts kicked. It was embarrassing, said Hicks, who was held to 47 yards on 25 carries after he had 192 yards and five TDs against Baylor in TCUs previous game. You just have to make sure you bounce back next week and be more prepared.THE TAKEAWAYOklahoma State: Gundy and the Cowboys won their only Big 12 title five years ago. And they werent going to be denied a chance at another. After their last two wins by a combined seven points, the Cowboys responded with 31 unanswered points following TCUs only score. Rudolph is 21-5 as their starting quarterback.TCU: There were more designed runs as expected for Hill (eight carries for 79 yards), but he threw two interceptions. The Horned Frogs were coming off a 40-point win over Baylor in their previous game two weeks ago, but reverted back to the kind of inconsistent play that hampered them in losing three of four before that and escaping Kansas with a one-point win.HE SAID ITIm not even mad. Im embarrassed because we got our butt kicked. Simple as that. Im not just talking about the players. Its our job as coaches to find the answers. Im embarrassed for them and for me, Patterson said.SETUP RECEIVERLacy had four catches for 109 yards, including a 3-yard TD in the first quarter that put Oklahoma State ahead to stay. That score was set up by his leaping 30-yard catch with both hands extended over his head before he came down with a foot in bounds.POLL IMPLICATIONSOklahoma State could move up a spot or two , but is in position to make a significant move in the final poll of the regular season if it wins that game and the Big 12 title.UP NEXTOklahoma State finishes the regular season with Bedlam at No. 9 Oklahoma on Dec. 3.TCU goes to Texas on Friday.
