Two Bills Drive

'"I didn't have the time to do that. So I was just always either getting popped up or hurt, injured here, never had an offseason. I think that's one of the biggest things. You've got to have a nice offseason and get as much work in as you can."'

'"I've got to weigh all my decisions. I've got to see how it plays out, what comes. I mean, there's so much that goes into it: team, money, quarterback, everything plays into it."'

'"Don’t know yet," Williams said Monday, when asked what his playing future holds. "It's been back and forth with, 'yeah, I'm going to play this year, to man, I feel good not playing.' I've been doing it for so long, it's pretty much all I've known.'

'Williams, who turns 34 in June, admitted he has a lot of thinking to do before deciding whether to come back. There was a report on the game broadcast that he was considering retirement, and Williams didn't refute it after the game. Williams wasn't available to speak with the media Monday morning on locker cleanout day.'

'"It's kind of like, you just sit back see who comes in next," Gilmore said Monday as the Bills cleaned out their locker following a disappointing 7-9 season that included coach Rex Ryan being fired. "Hopefully it's somebody who can change it around."'

'"Definitely disappointed with how it went down," Taylor said Monday during locker cleanout. "Definitely wasn't the best move in my opinion, but in this case, my opinion doesn’t matter. … As far as how it was handled, theres a business side to this thing, I knew that.'

'“When I first got here as a running back and I found out he’s my coach, dealing with him on a day-to-day basis, I fell in love with him. So I’m actually excited that he’s up for the job. And we’ll see. Hopefully he gets it.”'

'The Bills interviewed Reich in January of 2015 before hiring Rex Ryan, whom they fired last week after only 31 regular-season games.'

'Goodwin, who has been in his current job since 2013, has not called plays for the Cardinals in the regular season – that has been handled by Arians.'

'The league confirmed the Bills' home and away opponents Monday, which are determined by the divisions the AFC East will face next year and the Bills' finish within their division this season.'

'Whaley also said that he has often leaned on Brandon for administrative advice, but with Brandon taking on expanded responsibilities with the Buffalo Sabres and Pegula Sports Entertainment (his official title is managing partner and president), their relationship is likely to change.'

'“I like coach Lynn, I really do,’’ said running back LeSean McCoy who has called for more discipline in the locker room. “I think he makes everyone accountable. He’s that leader type of coach that we need. Dealing with him on a day-to-day basis, I fell in love with him. So I’m actually excited that he’s up for the job and we’ll see. Hopefully he gets it.’’'

'“That’s fair to say, that’s what it shows,’’ Taylor said. “That’s what I think it shows. At the same time, the conversation wasn’t detailed enough to know if that was the case or not, hopefully we can have that conversation … maybe they will make it more clear what the direction is moving forward.’’'

'What we heard from Whaley was the ramblings of a man trapped in a world of delusion. He came off as completely incompetent, not that we didn’t already suspect this given the Bills’ repeated failures at every turn during his nearly four years at the helm.'

'You remember Marrone? The coach who simply got up and quit? I think we owe Marrone an apology. He knew that the degree of dysfunction on the Bills makes One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest seem like a children’s movie.'
