ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. -- Two seasons traveling on opposite trajectories intersect Sunday when the Buffalo Bills host the San Francisco 49ers.The Bills (3-2) have won three in a row since coach Rex Ryan fired offensive coordinator Greg Roman after an 0-2 start.The 49ers (1-4) opened the season with a win but have since lost four straight and coach Chip Kelly is making his own change in hopes of reviving the offense.Colin Kaepernick will replace Blaine Gabbert as San Franciscos starting quarterback, Kelly announced this week.We just felt like we needed to do something on the offensive side to get us going, Kelly said. When you look at the depth on the offensive side of the ball, it was the one maneuver we could make.Kaepernick, who helped lead the 49ers to the Super Bowl after the 2012 season and the NFC title game the following year, has not started since Nov. 1, a 27-6 loss to the Rams. He appeared in one more game before being ruled out for the season and finished with 1,615 passing yards, six touchdowns and five interceptions in nine games.Kap has been here before. Kap has done it before, 49ers offensive coordinator Curtis Modkins said. Hes no stranger to being a starting quarterback in this league and we look forward to seeing him move the football team.Offseason shoulder, thumb and knee surgeries prevented Kaepernick from competing for job in the preseason. He backed up Gabbert for the first five games.Im excited to be back out there, Kaepernick said. Im excited to have the opportunity to help my team win a game this week.Kaepernick has received more attention for his national anthem protests than his play this season. Kaepernick is kneeling for the anthem to bring attention to social injustices and police brutality.Regardless of my play, this movement is going to be legitimate. Peoples lives are always going to be legitimate, theyre always going to be worthwhile, theyre always going to be worth fighting for, Kaepernick said. Now if me winning some games and playing well amplifies how much people want to listen to what Im saying and what Im fighting for, great. But regardless of what happens on the field, theres nothing that can delegitimize what this movement is about.Gabbert passed for 890 yards with five touchdowns and six interceptions in his five starts. In last weeks 33-21 loss to Arizona, Gabbert threw two interceptions in 49ers territory that led to 10 Cardinals points. He ranks last in the NFL in yards per attempt (5.9) and has the second-lowest passer rating (69.6), but he has the most rushing yards of any quarterback (172) and two rushing touchdowns.Modkins said Kapernick is similar enough to Gabbert that the 49ers wont change their offense to suit the new quarterback.No matter who plays quarterback, Ryan respects Kellys up-tempo offense and insists the Bills wont look past the 49ers.This is a dangerous team, theres no question about it, Ryan said. Weve won three games in a row, but we havent won four games in a row. We need to focus on this opponent and believe me, we will. If we lose, its not going to have anything to do with the fact that we overlooked somebody. Thats not happening here.The Bills are on a three-game winning streak for the first time since 2011 and have not won four in a row since starting 4-0 in 2008.Under new offensive coordinator Anthony Lynn, the Bills have rejuvenated the rushing attack that led the NFL last season. In the past three wins, the Bills have averaged 178.3 rushing yards per game and 5.9 yards per carry. In the two losses, the Bills averaged 75.5 yards per game and 3.5 yards per carry.LeSean McCoy is coming off his best game in two seasons with the Bills. He rushed for 150 yards on 18 carries (8.3 average) in last weeks 30-19 win over the Los Angeles Rams. McCoy currently ranks fourth in the NFL in rushing with 447 yards and his 5.3-yard average ranks fifth among running backs carrying the ball at least 10 times per game.Im just feeling good, McCoy said. The guys up front are blocking really well, were winning games and thats just the main focus. Im trying to win games in Buffalo and thats all that really matters.Last season, when Kelly was still coaching the Eagles, McCoy caused a stir before the Bills Dec. 13 trip to Philadelphia by saying he would refuse to shake hands with Kelly because he was upset with being traded from the Eagles in the previous offseason.McCoy said Wednesday that facing Kelly is no longer a big deal to him.For sure, way behind me, he said. I think it was more just the team than Chip. Going back to my old team, where I did so much there, I got there at 20 years old. I was. I was there for quite some time, so I think more it had to do with just going back home.The Bills might be without Pro Bowl defensive tackle Marcell Dareus again. Dareus was suspended for the first four games of the season for violating the NFLs substance abuse policy and was inactive last week because of a hamstring injury. Dareus has yet to practice this week and is questionable for Sunday. Youth White Sox Jerseys . PETERSBURG, Fla. Authentic White Sox Jerseys .

Parenteau scored early in the third period to help the Avs edge Toronto 2-1 on Tuesday night. Cory Sarich also scored for Colorado (3-0-0), which is off to its best ever start. SPA-FRANCORCHAMPS, Belgium -- Nico Rosberg claimed a much-needed race win as he emerged victorious in a chaotic Belgian Grand Prix which had a Safety Car and a red flag period.Pole-sitter Rosberg led from start to finish, looking untouchable for the majority of the race as drama unfolded all around him, most notably in a hectic opening six laps. The win slashes Lewis Hamiltons championship lead to nine points, with the world champion driving from the back row of the grid to the final spot on the podium in a weekend which has been all about damage limitation since incurring a huge grid penalty for engine changes.The race also involved a terrifying crash for Renaults Kevin Magnussen on the exit of Eau Rouge on lap six. The Danish driver limped away from the scene of the accident before going to hospital for checks.?Rosbergs life was made a lot easier when the next three men on the grid, Max Verstappen, Kimi Raikkonen and Sebastian Vettel, went three-wide into Turn 1 and made contact, dropping each man out of contention. Daniel Ricciardo emerged as Rosbergs closest challenger and turned in a solid drive to second, splitting the Mercedes drivers.Nico Hulkenberg drove a great race to fourth, agonisingly short of a first career podium which may well have materialised had he not stopped for tyres just before the race was red flagged. Force Indias Sergio Perez finished fifth to move Force India above Williams in the constructors standings.Chaos in the opening lapsThe chaos started at La Source, when Max Verstappen got bogged down off the line and was jumped by both Ferraris behind him. Verstappen switched to the inside of Kimi Raikkonen for Turn 1, who was then squeezed by Ferrari teammate Sebastian Vettel -- who would not have seen Verstappen on the inside. Vettel hit Raikkonen, spinning around in the process, before Raikkonen and Verstappen made contact.On the run down the hill, Verstappens front wing came loose, while Raikkonens car sprayed sparks from the rear for the rest of the lap -- all three men pitted at the end of the lap. The floor of Raikkonens car appeared to catch fire at the rear during his stop, delaying him significantly in the pit lane.Further back in the field on the crazy first lap, Pascal Wehrlein speared into the back of Jenson Button at Les Combes, waving his hand angrily in the direction of the McLaren driver. Wehrlein appeared to have more drive around the outside and was trying to undercut the McLaren driver on exit of the corner. Both men retired from the race.?On lap two, Carlos Sainzs right rear exploded on the Kemmel Straight. The Toro Rosso driver kept his car going but ended up spinning on the exit of Les Combes, before retiring further down the road with his rear wing hanging vertically off his car.After a brief Virtual Safety Car period, the drama continued, with Magnussen spinning violently at the top of the hill at Eau Rouge and colliding heavily into the barriers. The Renault driver limped away from the incident. After four laps behind a Safety Car, the race was red flagged so marshals could repair the damaged wall.ddddddddddddThe rest of the raceAfter Rosberg perfectly managed the restart and his next stint, the real interest was the battle developing for the podium behind him. The red flag had come at a perfect time for Fernando Alonso and Hamilton, who had both started on the medium tyre and were sat fourth and fifth, with many other drivers pitting immediately after Magnussens crash and the deployment of the Safety Car.Hamilton quickly cleared Alonso and Hulkenberg but was soon complaining about his tyres sliding a lot, prompting a pit stop on lap 22 for a set of tyres. Hamilton had a used set of the more favourable medium tyre which Mercedes opted against taking at that stop, guaranteeing he would have to stop again and meaning a podium was by no means a certainty at mid-distance.That stint lasted just 11 laps, with Hamilton pitting again on lap 33 for the used mediums. He emerged in fourth ahead of Perez and quickly dispatched Hulkenberg, though Ricciardo was too far down the road for the championship leader to harbour ambitions of finishing second.Away from the battle for the podium, Verstappen and Raikkonens battle continued in the second stint, with the Dutch teenager forcing the 2007 world champion wide at Les Combes. That prompted a series of explitive-laden radio tirades from Raikkonen, who complained Verstappens only interest is hitting me off the circuit.There was also nearly a collision in the pit lane between Hulkenberg and Alonso on lap 24. With Alonso nearly released into the path of the Force India, the two men exited side-by-side with Hulkenberg marginally ahead on the outside. Alonso grazed Hulkenbergs car with his tyre and the Force India driver did well to keep the car out of the wall, keeping position and staying inside the white line on exit. Hulkenberg turned in a great drive to fourth but will be wondering what might have been, as he had been on Rosbergs tail with fresher tyres when the red flags dropped on lap 11.Perez and Vettel rounded off the top six, with Alonsos strong drive fading in the final period of the race as he settled for sixth ahead of Bottas, Raikkonen and Massa. Verstappens erratic afternoon, which later saw him force Vettel off the road at Les Combes, finished out of the points in 11th. Haas driver Esteban Gutierrezs wait for points goes on as he finished 12th, though he finished one place ahead of teammate Romain Grosjean. The Haas pair had been running in the top six after the drama at the start of the race.?Daniil Kvyat toiled to 14th, with the Toro Rossos 2015 power unit brutally exposed on the long first sector despite sitting in the top ten in the early stages. Jolyon Palmer finished 15th for Renault, ahead of Manor debutant Esteban Ocon, who finished ahead of 17th-place Felipe Nasr.
