Two Bills Drive

‘The experienced free-agent quarterbacks on the open market include Chad Hutchinson, Jamie Martin, Shane Matthews, Akili Smith, Neil O’Donnell, Chris Redman, Scott Covington, Ray Lucas and Mike Quinn.’

‘”Believe it or not I have a great peace over me right now,” Brown said in the locker room at the RCA Dome after the Bills’ 30-17 loss. “Is this what I wanted to have happen? Absolutely not. But understanding what I went through last year and being gone most of the year, I understand there’s a reason things happen.” ‘

‘”We’re going to take a step back and evaluate what we have to do there (at quarterback),” coach Mike Mularkey said. “Obviously, we have to do something. We’ll see what’s available. It will be addressed.”‘

‘The New England Patriots appear to have widened the gap over the rest of the AFC East. My original theory was that the Bills would clearly be the second-best team in the division and have a decent shot at a playoff berth. But now I’m wondering if they can match last year’s 6-10.’

‘If new coach Mike Mularkey’s vision of a ball-control offense comes to fruition and the defense remains strong, the Bills could be one of the NFL’s surprise teams and make a run at a playoff berth. But given the unstable nature of the offensive line, a .500 season appears to be a more realistic goal.’

‘Coach Mike Mularkey should have the results of the MRI on Monday after practice, the Bills said.’

‘Former Buffalo Bills wide receiver Andre Reed will present a program titled "Giving Your Best" at noon Sept. 10 in the Physical Education Complex at Jamestown Community College.’

‘Offensively, the starting unit for the Bills again could not get into the endzone for the third consecutive preseason game. The Bills, as a team, fumbled seven times, losing three. Bills quarterbacks also threw two interceptions and were sacked three times.’

‘”It’s time to work,” Vincent said passionately. “Now is pretty much that time in my life where it’s [football]. I understand it [and] my wife understands it. We’re the only ones that need to understand that this is not going to last a lifetime. Let’s seize the moment.”‘

‘Special teams mistakes and shaky pass protection marred the Buffalo Bills’ preseason game against the Indianapolis Colts Saturday night. Then came the bad news.’

‘Edgerrin James will not be surprised if it’s well into the season before Willis McGahee gets back to 100 percent. The Indianapolis Colts’ star back knows what it’s like to return from major knee surgery.’

‘No fewer than four special-teams blunders led directly to or helped set up 20 first-half points by the high-powered Colts.’

‘Exactly when did Bobby April become the second coming of Ronnie Jones?’

‘The Miami Dolphins, as we all know, have been decimated over the last couple of months by a string of injuries and Ricky Williams’ retirement. Now it’s the Buffalo Bills’ turn to take some hits.’
