I loved Kenneth Davis. His red-zone game play was a huge compliment to Thurman Thomas, and a huge part of our success during our Super Bowl runs. As in so many other ways the Bill's K-Gun and offensive rotation was years ahead of it's time, sharing carries between the two great backs.

 

I'll always miss seeing his #23 coming out of the backfield. One of my all-time favorite lunch-pail Bills.

+1 and don't forget about Rob Riddick either!

Whew! I'm so glad.

 

I was waiting for either a.) He died

 

or

 

b.) He was arrested for some drug/ weapon or drug and weapons charge.

 

Nice to know another class act is doing well for himself. :thumbsup:

He was the perfect compliment to the thurmanator...the offense and running game never seemed to miss a beat when kennith Davis was in there.

He was a great Bill. He seemed to be able to get some nice runs and yardage, anytime his number was called. He was a huge player for big games and never let the team down.

I loved Kenny. He was not as pretty a runner as Thurman was, but I think he actually had a better burst.

 

He was quicker through the holes at the line. One of his best games was against Atlanta where he rushed for 181 on 20 carries and Thomas had 103 on 13 carries.

According to WGR:

 

Thurman also talked about the running back position and remarked how the presence of both Fred Jackson and CJ Spiller reminds him of when he and Kenneth Davis were partners in the backfield. As were many Bills fans, Thomas was impressed with Spiller’s performance last season after Jackson went down with a season ending injury in week 11.

Was key player in one of best games I went to see in person. Against the Redskins he was on fire on both him and Thomas had over 100 yards rushing, but Kenneth's runs were more impressive to watch, as they were after Bills had lead and were just running every down to run out clock. He was breaking tackles like crazy and was dragging people with him.

 

Was a great compliment with his style. Bills got lucky to get a player like him off freeagency at time.
