Two Bills Drive

‘With two interceptions tonight, Bills CB Nate Clements now has six interceptions over his last three games against the Dolphins, including two for touchdowns. In addition to his 54-yard return for a score tonight, he brought one back 29 yards on October 20 of last year at Pro Player Stadium when he picked off a Ray Lucas pass.’

‘”We got real physical with these guys and the defensive line did a terrific job up front and really got after the quarterback. When everything comes together like it did tonight you’re going to have a great defensive game and we did.”‘

‘What was your view on Drew Bledsoe’s interception in the end zone?

“One of our coaches upstairs said our receiver got thrown down. He came back and tried to make a play over the top of the back line of the end zone but we underthrew the pass.”‘

‘What you should look for: The Dolphins will try to wear down the Bills’ defense with heavy doses of Ricky Williams, the league’s defending rushing champion, and the Bills are eager to see if Miami will continue using single coverage on receiver Eric Moulds, who has burned the Dolphins in the past.’

‘Outcome: Bills take control of AFC East with 24-20 victory.’

‘The Bills will give Jennings help on occasion, but in one-on-one situations Jennings must do the job.’

‘”We’re going to let Bledsoe just sit back there and throw the ball! We love him that much,” joked new Dolphins linebacker Junior Seau this past week. “Our game plan is pretty easy. Everyone wants to put pressure on the quarterback and he is definitely going to be a key to get their offense going. We all know that. Getting him to move his feet outside the pocket is one of the keys.”‘

‘They haven’t played from behind yet. They haven’t had to race the clock in the fourth quarter.’

‘Q: Is he worried about McGahee? A: Sure, he is. Remember, when The News called him on draft day, he called it a “slap in the face.” Then management got to him and he backed off that, too. He knows the Bills believe McGahee can be a star in the National Football League. He was worried in April, he’s worried now and he’ll be worried as long as McGahee is on the same team.’

‘”I have fun,” he said. “You never know when it’s going to all end so you might as well have fun.”‘

‘”The fact there is good focus and good execution on starting fast is a good thing,” said coach Gregg Williams. “Those are important ingredients in being able to always be in control of the ballgame and not have to scramble at the end.”‘

‘By portraying the Bills Pro Bowl wide receiver as the spitting image of Robbie Alomar and Bill Romanowski, the Miami Dolphins defensive backs are trying to get inside Moulds’ head.’

‘What have you heard about the Bills-Dolphins rivalry? “I know it’s a big game for the fans. But it’s not like a college rivalry because I think the cities are a little too far away from each other.”‘

‘”This is a big, big challenge for us,” Wannstedt concluded, “we’re going to have to find a way to make some plays.”‘

‘You don’t think the Dolphins, off to a struggling start and with coach Dave Wannstedt’s job reportedly on the line, are resorting to an old issue to create some new adrenalin?’
