Two Bills Drive

‘Henry would like Gilbride to put his eyeballs on him and make him the team’s red-zone “workhorse.” Will things change starting Sunday? “I have no choice but to believe it will,” Henry said. “I’m going into this with a positive attitude that when we get into the red zone, I want the ball.”‘

‘-9: Turnover margin for the Bills this season, worst in the AFC.’

‘But Wright was involved in a three-car collision in September in New York that injured three people. He was arrested on criminal charges, including driving while intoxicated. Wright was then cut by Buffalo. Criminal proceedings in that accident are pending.’

‘”He doesn’t treat any two players the same,” Gash explained. “It’s more whatever he finds to push your buttons, he’ll use it. He’ll do it until you just can’t stand it anymore then he’ll do it some more.”‘

‘”You can’t let the inmates run the asylum … players will do what you let them do and won’t do what you don’t let them do. I don’t want tin soldiers on my team and I don’t ask their nature to correspond to my nature.”‘

‘Bledsoe is arguably the best pure passer the Cowboys have faced this season.’

On paper heading into the season, the Bills looked like the better team. Well, it’s time to prove it because Parcells has this Cowboys machine humming. He’s making so much more out of less, but this game could be a tough one

RT Mike Williams is only one to make Clayton’s All-AFC Team.

Four of the top playoff spots are reasonably secure unless the Chiefs, Colts, Titans and Patriots blow it in the second half. That leaves the Dolphins, Broncos and Bills battling for the last wild card (remaining slot is guarenteed to best team in AFC North).

‘The Bills list Jennings as questionable, meaning he has a 50-percent chance of playing. Without him, Marcus Price would take over the starting job.’

‘The Bills will be out to prove themselves in a tough contest at Texas Stadium. Dallas has been a mediocre at best in the past few weeks and it will catch up with it in this contest. Expect a well-rested Buffalo team to come out and play its best game of the year.’

‘The second half slate features the Colts, Giants, and a three game finish against the Titans, Dolphins, and Patriots. The Bills won’t survive that gauntlet, and they’ll be lucky to finish 8-8.’

‘Since 1998, the pivot is just 2-15 on the road against teams that finished the season with a winning record. Not exactly a comforting statistic considering three of the Bills’ four remaining road games are against plus-.500 teams (Dallas, 4-4 New York Giants, 6-2 Tennessee Titans, and 7-2 New England).’

‘Conclusion: The Bills either need to do a whole lot of damage on second down . . . or start playing significantly better overall.’

‘Parcells is a classic bully. You beat the bully by punching back, by hitting him in the mouth. That’s what the Bills must do to have a chance. They have to run the ball at the Cowboys and run it some more. They have to beat him at his own game, the way they failed to do – sorry – in a certain Super Bowl loss 13 years ago.’

‘To make room for McGahee, the Bills released running back Ken Simonton. If he clears waivers, Simonton may be re-signed to the practice squad.’
