The weather in Buffalo isn’t conducive to kicking, or really passing.

But the Eagles have suddenly started making plays on the ground, and have built a 24-13 lead over the Bulls in the third quarter.

Miles Sanders popped a 65-yard touchdown run to start the second half, and Boston Scott just added a 4-yard scoring run.

The Eagles have run 19 times for 143 yards so far, an impressive balance. But Sanders left the game with a shoulder injury and has been ruled doubtful to return, and Jordan Howard appears to have been shaken up.

The Bills answered Sanders’ big play with a 28-yard catch-and-run score by Devin Singletary, but the ensuing extra point was blocked, the second missed PAT of the quarter.
