The Facts:
Ridley may have had no place to hide when he fumbled twice in the first half Sunday but he wasn’t hiding from the truth after the Patriots escaped with a 23-21 win over the Bills at Ralph Wilson Stadium. “Coming in, I have two turnovers. I can’t blame anybody but myself and just man up and come back to work. I’m just going to put my nose in the dirt and keep grinding. That’s all I can do."

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Shane Vereen came in and picked up the slack, finishing with 101 yards on 14 carries while adding seven catches for 58 yards. Does Ridley feel he’s going to have to win his job back from Vereen? “Absolutely. Two turnovers, I was out of there the rest of the game. Hey, I’m not going to pout about it, just keep grinding.” There's no doubt Vereen has earned more touches going forward, regardless of Ridley's failure to secure the ball. He'll have to work hard to re-gain the trust of coaches. And he knows it. "We’ve got 15 weeks in front of us and I’m going right back to work,” Ridley said.
