Two Bills Drive

‘Moulds also missed last Sunday’s 30-3 loss to the New York Jets.’

Talley was selected by the Bills in the second round of the 1983 draft out of West Virginia. He played 12 seasons with Buffalo and is one of just 10 individuals to play at least a dozen seasons with the Bills. A long-time fixture on the Bills defense of the late 80s and early 90s, his 188 regular season games played rank as the fifth-most in team history while his 1,137 tackles rank second and 38.5 sacks rank fifth.

‘Their whole floor, with the exception of their room, is ‘Skins players and coaches, and Gary and Danny stayed up until 3AM with the TV cranked up and running up and down the hallway yelling at the top of their lungs, barely dodging Adams Mark Security by ducking into an engineering/housekeeping closet. Seems Chris Samuels got the worst of it, as his room is directly next door to theirs.’

‘”I’m embarrassed by the games we’ve lost,” said center Trey Teague.’

‘The winner today will put itself back in the playoff picture. The loser won’t be eliminated from postseason contention, but its task will be a little bit harder.’

‘Bills respond to challenge with 24-20 win.’

‘Bills cornerback Nate Clements against Redskins wide receiver Laveranues Coles.’

‘My guess? The Bills stick with Williams and concede the season.’

‘”It means a lot to me,” he said. “You got to think about it. The Buffalo Bills have 43 years of tradition, and I’m just the 20th inductee, the 15th player. Think about it. When I first got in the NFL there were 1,600 jobs. To be in the realm of those players is quite an honor. I can’t wait. I don’t think anyone can take as many memories away from that stadium as I did.”‘

‘The board of directors of Sandy Beach Yacht Club Women’s Organization will sponsor a spaghetti dinner today during halftime of the Buffalo Bills vs. Washington Redskins.’

‘The Bills now rank last in total yards and rushing yards and 18th in passing yards and points scored. Buffalo has converted just 15 of its last 54 third-down tries and Bledsoe has been sacked 17 times during the club’s four-game slide.’

‘One scout recently said: “Bruce Smith is just limping toward that sack record. The first four games, he seemed to be pumped up, but the last two weeks he looks bad.”‘

‘Explain what the violence in the NFL is really like?

“It’s a sequence of car crashes. I think I read Tiki Barber or Ronde Barber say that the following day you get out of bed slowly and you do a body part check. That’s kind of what it’s like. You don’t know what’s going to hurt the following day. All of a sudden you get out of bed and your back hurts and you don’t remember how it happened.”‘

‘For the Bills, of course, the real issue isn’t Smith, but rather getting back on track offensively.’

‘But a similar loss today, in front of a sellout home crowd with Super Bowl era icon Darryl Talley going on the Wall of Fame, might convince president/general manager Tom Donahoe he has to do something.’
