ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. - Buffalo Bills third-string safety Bacarri Rambo wont soon forget his first two NFL career interceptions.Not every defensive back gets an opportunity to pick off Green Bays Aaron Rodgers once — never mind twice — in a game.Cast off by Washington three months ago, Rambo came off the bench to intercept Rodgers on consecutive drives in the second half to help secure a 21-13 win over the Packers on Sunday.Its just a huge, huge confidence boost, said Rambo, Washingtons 2013 sixth-round draft pick out of Georgia. Its just going to allow me to play even faster and build confidence in myself that, hey, I can do this. I belong in this league.Rambo, who signed with Buffalo last month, got his opportunity midway through the third quarter after backup safety Duke Williams left the game after experiencing concussion-like symptoms. Rambos first interception came after the Bills went ahead 16-10. And his second, on a pass that went off receiver Jarrett Boykins fingers, set up Dan Carpenters 48-yard field goal.The interceptions keyed a dominating performance that ended with defensive end Mario Williams forcing a fumble by Rodgers that resulted in a safety with 1:51 left.Buffalo (8-6) stayed in a jumbled AFC playoff picture. Meanwhile, the Packers (10-4) had a five-game winning streak snapped and prevented them from closing in on clinching their sixth straight playoff berth.It was an uncharacteristically sloppy performance by Rodgers, who had thrown only three interceptions all season — and none in his past five starts. He finished 17 of 42 for 185 yards. His 34.3 quarterback rating was the worst of his career.It wasnt my best day by any stretch of the imagination, Rodgers said. Ive got to play better for us to win. I expect more of myself.Eddie Lacy scored on a 1-yard run, and Mason Crosby kicked two field goals for Green Bay.Marcus Thigpen, another Bills newcomer, scored on a 75-yard punt return, and Carpenter hit all four field-goal attempts.Here are some other things that stood out as the Packers fell to 0-6 at Orchard Park:BAD HANDS: Rodgers got very little help from his receivers, who dropped several passes. The most notable drop was committed by the usually reliable Jordy Nelson.Trailing 16-10 and facing second-and-6 at his own 6 late in the third quarter, Rodgers hit a wide-open Nelson in stride up the right sideline only to have the pass glance off his fingers.We had all sorts of chances and just didnt make them for whatever reason, Nelson said. My drop couldve won the game for us, so Ive got to make those, no matter how easy or hard they are.NO OFFENSE: The Bills defence bailed out another sputtering performance by the teams Kyle Orton-led offence.Orton finished 14 of 27 for 158 yards with an interception. Buffalo produced 13 first downs, 253 yards offence and settled for two field goals on two drives inside Green Bays 20.Well just keep on getting better, Orton said. Well feel good that we got the win, but realize there are a lot more things we can do to get better.FINALLY .500: The Bills record hasnt dropped below .500 all season. And now Buffalos guaranteed its best finish in 10 years. The eight wins are the most for Buffalo since a 9-7 record in 2004.The team still has an uphill climb to end a 14-season playoff drought — the NFLs longest active streak. Due to tiebreakers, the Bills rank ninth out of nine AFC teams with eight or more wins.Buffalo plays at Oakland this weekend, before closing at New England.PACKERS REGROUP: Green Bay is tied atop the NFC North standings with Detroit, and failed to keep pace with conference-leading Arizona (11-3).Rodgers maintains confidence the Packers can bounce back after losing for just the second time in 11 games.Everythings right in front of us. If we win out, we still win the North, Rodgers said. This is an important time for us to see what kind of chemistry we have on this team.Green Bay travels to play Tampa Bay next weekend, and closes at home against Detroit.MILESTONES: Bills receiver Sammy Watkins had one catch for 28 yards, enough to up his total 850 to set the teams rookie record. The former mark was set by Lee Evans, who had 843 yards in 2004.Nelson had 55 yards receiving to set a single-season career best with 1,320 yards — 6 more than he had last year.___AP NFL website: http://www.pro32.ap.org and http://twitter.com/AP_NFL Cameron Jordan Jersey .

Then they got a call from their daughter-in-law, telling them he wouldnt be starting Friday. In the clubhouse at Citi Field, Tanners phone beeped. "My mom is texting me, Whats happening?" Tanner remembered. "They were bummed out." Jordan Zimmermann had a fever and was vomiting, so Roark started Thursdays series finale against the New York Mets on just three hours notice. After a shaky first inning, Roark recovered and the Nationals rallied for an 8-2 victory and an opening three-game sweep. "I just go with the flow," the 27-year-old right-hander said. "Whatever they tell me to do, its what Im here for." Ryan Zimmerman tied his career high with four hits, including three that led off innings. His second-inning home run off Zack Wheeler (0-1) started the Nationals comeback from a 2-0 deficit. Washingtons leadoff batter reached in the first seven innings, and the Nationals rallied to win for the third time in the series. While Washington opened 3-0 for the second straight season, the Mets fell to 0-3 for the first time since 2005. They had not lost their first three home games since 1997. "Theyre proud of the way theyve played so far and so am I," Nationals first-year manager Matt Williams said. "Just the way theyre grinding." Roark (1-0) made his major league debut on Aug. 7 last season and went 7-1 with a 1.51 ERA in five starts and nine relief appearances. He got just two swings and misses in the first four innings and fell behind 2-0 in a 30-pitch first but wound up allowing just the two runs and six hits in six innings with three walks and five strikeouts -- including his final four batters. "Thats what Tanners done since basically we called him up last year," Zimmerman said. "When its his turn to pitch, he goes out there and challenges the hitter.dddddddddddd. He throws a lot of strikes and works quick." Roark allowed an RBI double in the first to Curtis Granderson, who had been 0 for 9 with the Mets, and Juan Lagares sacrifice fly. Then he started making adjustments. "I was letting the ball go and not trying to pinpoint and try to nibble as much," he said. Wheeler gave up three runs and seven hits in six innings, trying to work out of trouble for much of the afternoon before a small crowd of 20,561, a couple hundred above Citi Fields record low. Washington went ahead 3-2 in the fifth when Denard Span hit an RBI single to right, advanced as Granderson heaved a two-hop throw home and scored on Jayson Werths two-out single. The Nationals broke open the game with a four-run seventh against relievers Scott Rice and Jeurys Familia that included a two-run single by Adam LaRoche off the glove of first baseman Lucas Duda. "I assure you, were better than what youve seen the last three days," Mets manager Terry Collins said. Soon after that, thoughts turned to the home opener against Atlanta. Roark said his parents and in-laws still plan to be in the stands at Nationals Park on Friday and Saturday. "Theyll still get there, spend time together, so thats good," he said. "First time in D.C., so that will be fun." NOTES: Washington pitchers struck out 39 in the series, third-most in any teams opening three games since 1914, according to STATS. The only teams with more were Texas last year (43) and Cleveland in 1966 (42). ...
