ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. - Buffalo Bills coach Doug Marrone is sounding less confident about rookie quarterback EJ Manuels chances of starting in the season finale at New England this weekend. Marrone sidestepped questions Monday about Manuels status after he missed a game because of a swollen left knee. Marrone calls it "a process," adding he wants to get "a peek" at the player once the Bills (6-9) return to practice Tuesday. Thats a switch from what Marrone said last week. In ruling Manuel out against Miami, Marrone felt "110 per cent confident" he would play at New England. If Manuel cant play, backup Thad Lewis will be in line to make his fifth start of the season, and second in a row, after a 19-0 win over the Dolphins on Sunday. <a href="http://www.officialsaintslockroom.com/cameron-jordan-saints-jersey/">Cameron Jordan Jersey</a>.Do you have to be that close?

Jones office.I can trust its a fair process, said Rices attorney, Peter Ginsberg.Two people familiar with the case said theres no timetable for Jones to make her decision, though one person said she has asked the sides to submit closing briefs next week. Both spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because the arbiter has told the sides not to discuss details of the private hearing.NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell testified for more than two hours to start the appeal hearing Wednesday, according to one of the sources. Ray and Janay Rice attended the full hearing Wednesday.The hearing began nearly two months after the former Pro Bowl running back was suspended indefinitely by the NFL and released by the Ravens.League security chief Jeffery Miller and Ravens general manager Ozzie Newsome also testified in the hearing. Ravens President Dick Cass, who was previously expected to testify, was not asked to take part in the hearing, one of the sources said.The NFL players union said in a statement that the hearing was fair and thorough, and thanked NFL owners and officials for agreeing to use a neutral arbiter.The collectively bargained rights of all players must be vehemently preserved and we take that obligation seriously, the statement said. This appeal, presided over by a neutral arbitrator, which inclluded a presentation of all the relevant facts, witness testimony to the truth and cross examination, is the due process that every athlete deserves.ddddddddddddNFL spokesman Brian McCarthy declined comment. We continue to respect the confidentiality order set weeks ago, he said.Rice was suspended indefinitely Sept. 8 for violating the NFLs personal conduct policy.Rice is seeking immediate reinstatement, though its unlikely a team would sign him this season. Rice has also filed a separate wrongful termination grievance against the Ravens.Goodell originally suspended the running back for two games. The incident occurred inside an elevator at an Atlantic City casino in February, when Rice and Janay Rice were engaged. The couple married a month later.The league considered the video made public after the initial suspension to be new evidence, giving Goodell the authority to amend Rices punishment. But Rices attorneys are arguing he should not be disciplined twice, citing the collective bargaining agreement.Rices side also is arguing that he described details of the incident to Goodell when they met in June. Goodell has called Rices description ambiguous while the players representatives have maintained he gave exact details.Rices attorneys also say the indefinite suspension isnt consistent with other punishments issued by Goodell in the past.Jones was jointly picked by the commissioner and the players union to hear the appeal. Though it isnt a criminal case, Jones asked witnesses to testify under oath. Transcripts of the testimony will not be released publicly, one source said.Rice, a three-time Pro Bowl pick, played in two preseason games for the Ravens this year. His last carry was a 6-yard run against San Francisco on Aug. 7.___AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and www.twitter.com/AP_NFL___Rob Maaddi can be reached on Twitter at www.twitter.com/ap_robmaaddi <a href="http://www.wholesalejerseyscheap.net/">Wholesale Jerseys</a>　 <a href="http://www.nflcheapauthenticjerseys.com/">Cheap NFL Jerseys</a>　<a href="http://www.jerseysfromchinashop.com/">Wholesale Jerseys</a>　<a href="http://www.nflwholesalejerseyscheapchina.com/">Authentic Jerseys From China</a> <a href="http://www.chinanflcheapjerseyswholesale.com/">Wholesale Jerseys</a> <a href="http://www.nflauthenticwholesalejerseys.com/">Wholesale NFL Jerseys</a> ' ' '
