Bills rushing attack rolls on in McCoy's absence

When the Bills traded for running back LeSean McCoy, the organization dreamt that it could field the NFL’s best rushing attack. Those visions have come to fruition, and while McCoy has been a key component to the team’s success running the football, the Bills ground game showed Sunday it has plenty of other weapons.

The Bills gained 236 yards on the ground in their 16-6 win over the Dallas Cowboys on Sunday, and they were more successful carrying the football than they were throwing it, gaining 172 yards passing. The success in the run game came despite the fact that McCoy sat out with an MCL injury.
