Bills steamed over LB Spikes' antics

The Bills are still seething over the way Patriots linebacker Brandon Spikes acted after a hit on running back Fred Jackson late in Sunday's game. The blow to Jackson's head and neck resulted in a concussion.

Spikes flexed his arm and talked some trash to several Bills with Jackson down on the field. Spikes had hit Jackson in the helmet with his left forearm.

"Yeah, he'll get his," backup running back Tashard Choice said. "You know it's cool to make a big hit. But it's not cool when somebody's down like that."

Earlier in the game, Spikes was penalized for roughing the passer on a lunging hit on Ryan Fitzpatrick, which knocked Fitzpatrick's helmet off. Fitzpatrick got up in Spikes' face after the play.

He also delivered two punishing blows in the first meeting.

"I think he's a punk at times," Fitzpatrick said. "He's not high on my list."
