Bills cornerback Jabari Greer steps into the end zone after intercepting a pass in the fourth quarter. The score gave Buffalo the lead for good.

In the first half alone, the Rams also called an end-around and an option pass, both by Dante Hall to some success. They also went for it on fourth-and-3 from the Buffalo 42 late in the half, but had an incomplete pass.

Linehan said he wasn’t concerned that this might have been his final game.

“I’m going to continue to do the best I can, OK, and that’s the only thing I can control,” Linehan said. “That’s what I’ve done my whole life and that’s what I’m going to do the rest of my life.”

Buffalo mustered only 96 yards in the first half, going 1-for-7 on third down, and was held to a pair of field goals by Rian Lindell. Edwards finished 15-for-25 for 197 yards with a touchdown and an interception.

Green made his first start since Oct. 7, 2007, when he landed on injured reserve with the Dolphins after his second severe concussion in two seasons. He was 17-for-32 for 236 yards and led the Rams to a season-best 380 yards.
