ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. -- Its a free country, so it makes no difference to Rex Ryan whether Colin Kaepernick continues to kneel in protest during the national anthem when Buffalo hosts the 49ers on Sunday.The Bills coach is more concerned what the San Francisco quarterback can do with his arm and legs once the game begins now that Kaepernick has reclaimed the starting job .Im not worried about that kind of figure, Ryan said, referring to Kaepernick transcending football and entering the national political discussion with his public stance against racial oppression and police brutality.Im worried about the quarterback, he added. Any time you lead a team to a Super Bowl, thats pretty good. So thats where our focus certainly is on preparing for him.Ryan has no intention of the Bills losing their focus even though he believes standing for the anthem pays respect to members of the armed forces.Buffalo (3-2) has won three straight , and the objective is making it four in a row, which would mark the Bills best streak since going 4-0 to open 2008.Make no mistake, were still kicking dirt off ourselves from the start we had, Ryan said. Were not that good. Were not good enough to overlook anybody, let alone the 49ers.San Francisco (1-4) has lost four straight and seeking any semblance of a spark, which is one of the reasons first-year coach Chip Kelly made the switch at quarterback by benching Blaine Gabbert .Its not Blaines fault, Kelly said. We just felt we needed to do something on the offensive side of the ball to get us going. When you look at the depth of the offensive side of the ball, its really the one maneuver we could make.Little has gone right for the 49ers since a 28-0 season-opening rout of an undisciplined Los Angeles Rams opponent. In their past four games, Gabbert has thrown four touchdowns and six interceptions, and the Niners have managed just 16 big plays (10 or more yards rushing, 20 or more yards passing) after having seven against L.A.Enter Kaepernick, who made a splash with his dual-threat abilities in leading San Francisco to a Super Bowl appearance in 2013 -- a 34-31 loss to Baltimore -- and to the NFC championship game the following year, which the 49ers lost to Seattle. His production has tailed off since, with injuries playing a factor. In the past 11 months, hes had operations on his left non-throwing shoulder, left knee and right thumb.Kaepernicks last start was Nov. 1, when his record dropped to 2-6 following a 27-6 loss at St. Louis.As a competitor, you always want to be in a position where you can help your team win football games, Kaepernick said. I now have that opportunity and want to take full advantage of it.Heres a number of things to look for Sunday:RAISED PLATFORM: Kaepernick doesnt feel added pressure to succeed to help expand his voice .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, he said. But regardless of what happens on the field, theres nothing that can delegitimize what this movement is about.CHIP VS. LESEAN PART II: Bills running back LeSean McCoy caused a stir last year by using a profanity in saying he wouldnt shake then-Eagles coach Chip Kellys hand before Buffalos game at Philadelphia. McCoy was upset in believing Kellys decision to trade him to Buffalo was possibly racially motivated.McCoy still isnt likely to shake Kellys hand Sunday, but was far more reserved in sharing his emotions toward his former coach.I never really had an issue with him, McCoy said. Some things we didnt see eye to eye, but thats tons of players and coaches.POROUS D: The 49ers have allowed a 100-yard rusher for four straight weeks, contributing to San Francisco having the leagues second-worst rushing defense at 146.8 yards per game. The Niners will have their hands full this week against McCoy, who has a combined 330 yards rushing and three TDs (including one receiving) in the past three games since Anthony Lynn replaced Greg Roman as offensive coordinator.STOUT D: Led by 10th-year journeyman Lorenzo Alexanders NFL-leading seven sacks, the Bills have 17 already -- four fewer than they had last year. Buffalo is also third in the NFL with 11 takeaways (five fumbles, six interceptions), including three returned for touchdowns.O-LINE SWITCH: The move to Kaepernick might not be the only change on offense. Rookie guard Joshua Garnett played 18 snaps as a reserve last week and could start against the Bills in place of Andrew Tiller. The Niners traded up to draft Garnett in the first round, but he didnt get a single snap on offense the first four weeks.---AP Sports Writer Josh Dubow in Santa Clara, California, contributed to this report.---AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and AP NFL Twitter feed: www.twitter.com/AP-NFL Buy Shoes Black Friday .

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. -- With a rookie quarterback and one of the NFLs best defenses, the Denver Broncos were content to play conservatively at Jacksonville.It was the perfect formula against the self-destructing Jaguars.Bradley Roby returned an interception 51 yards for a touchdown, and the defending Super Bowl champions beat the mistake-prone Jaguars 20-10 on Sunday and gained ground in the AFC playoff picture.Roby picked off Blake Bortles wobbler across the middle in the third quarter -- star linebacker Von Miller hit Bortles as he released the ball -- and went untouched the other way. It was one of three turnovers for Denvers defense.They were exceptional, Broncos coach Gary Kubiak said.It was the 11th pick-6 of Bortles three-year career and his third in the past four games. Houston and Detroit also returned interceptions for touchdowns in games the Jaguars lost by fewer than seven points.Its the biggest nightmare possible, said Bortles, whose 37.9 quarterback rating was the worst of his career.But what are you going to do about it? You cant sit there in a corner and pout. You cant blame people. You cant feel sorry for yourself because I think all thats going to do is affect the way I play. ... All you can do is put your head down and continue to play as hard as you can and prepare each week.Bortles latest pick-6 resulted in a seventh consecutive loss for Jacksonville (2-10) and secured another miserable milestone for the small-market franchise.The Jaguars became the fifth team in NFL history to post double-digit losses in six consecutive seasons, joining Tampa Bay (1983-94), Detroit (2001-06), Oakland (2003-09) and Cleveland (2008-13).Jacksonville had a chance to tie in the final minutes, but Bortles fumbled trying to make a play in the pocket.The Broncos (8-4) rebounded from an overtime loss against Kansas City, and with Miamis loss at Baltimore, moved into position to get one of the conferences wild-card spots.They did it without quarterback Trevor Siemian , who missed the game with a sprained left foot. Rookie Paxton Lynch made his second career start and first on the road. Denver didnt ask him to do too much. He didnt need to, either.The Broncos scored all 20 points with help from Jacksonville, including two turnovers and two 15-yard penalties.Denver was 1 for 13 on third downs and finished with just 206 yards, the fewest allowed in Jaguars coach Gus Bradleys four-year tenurre.ddddddddddddIt was the franchises fewest since giving up 146 yards in a victory against Baltimore in 2011.Were playing good defense right now, said Jaguars defensive tackle Malik Jackson, who played his first game against his former team.The Broncos were gouged on the ground for 154 yards, but the defense made several game-changing plays.Robys interception was the key. It was huge for the third-year pro who gave up a late touchdown to New Orleans two weeks ago and surrendered an 11-yard catch on fourth-and-10 last week against the Chiefs.There was no way we were going to lose this game late like we did last week, Roby said.SPECIAL TEAMS WOESThe Jaguars continued their streak of special teams gaffes. Reserve tight end Alex Ellis was flagged for unnecessary roughness on a punt return in the final minute of the half. His 15-yarder set up Brandon McManus 32-yard field goal and put the Broncos ahead 10-3. It also gave Jacksonville a major meltdown on special teams for the seventh consecutive week. The streak includes five fumbled punts -- including three turnovers -- a punt return for a touchdown and two long punt returns that set up scores.HELPING HANDSJaguars receiver Allen Robinson continues to help his opponents. Robinson dropped his sixth pass of the season and his third that resulted in an interception.Just trying to make a play, Robinson said. For me, again, each and every Sunday I try to go out here and try to make plays.Robinson bobbled a deep pass from Bortles down the left sideline, and it landed Harris Jr.s hands for Bortles 14th interception of the season. Robinson, a Pro Bowler last season, also bobbled passes that ended up as picks against Chicago and Oakland earlier this season.Robinson finished with three catches for 31 yards. It looked as if he was tackled before the ball got to him on a fourth-down play early in the fourth, but the play didnt draw a flag. Robinson ripped off his helmet to yell at an official and was flagged unsportsmanlike conduct.Sometimes youve got to let it out and that happened, he said. Ive never been this frustrated playing the game of football in my life.UP NEXTBroncos: Play at Tennessee on Sunday.Jaguars: Host Minnesota on Sunday.---For more NFL coverage: http://www.pro32.ap.org and http://www.twitter.com/AP-NFL ' ' '
