‘”I was expecting a call,” the former Riverview High star said shortly after his second day of practice with Buffalo. “I didn’t know when it would come. This feels like a good situation and hopefully I can help this team out.”‘

‘”I really don’t think it’s that,” Jauron said, referring to whether the no-huddle attack resulted in the false-start penalties. “But we’ll give everything some thought.”‘

‘"I just think the majority of the team’s fan base are fed up with the status quo the team has now," Abshagen said. "People want bumper stickers and T-shirts, but they viewed this as a louder way to voice their opinion. T-shirts gained attention locally, but this has gained attention nationally."’

‘”I think the best thing to do is be part of the solution, not the problem,” Whitner said. “The minute you start mouthing off throughout the media and you start talking down to guys, that’s when things go bad, especially being a leader on the football team.

‘Granted, our esteemed leaders all come with some baggage. Still, if Mr. Wilson asks nicely, I’m sure he could get…’.

‘So there’s just one problem. No one is making an effort to fix these problems, it’s like buying a lamp and not screwing a light bulb in. Real productive.’

‘”I think we do have enough leadership on this team and I think a good sign of it is being able to stay together through times like this,” said receiver Lee Evans. “It’d be easy for guys to peel off and do different things. But guys are really into what we’re doing, what we’ve got, and trying to make it work.”‘
