‘The 6-5, 295-pound Wolford enjoyed a stellar NFL career with the Buffalo Bills (1986-92), Indianapolis Colts (1993-95) and Pittsburgh Steelers (1996-98). Wolford played in three Super Bowls with the Bills and was named to the Pro Bowl three times (1990, 1992, 1995). He was featured on the cover of Sports Illustrated in 1994.’

Wolford, Dawson to enter Kentucky Hall of Fame
‘Wolford now serves as majority owner of the Louisville Fire in the arenafootball2 league, but he once was the highest-paid offensive lineman in the NFL.’
Injury could cloud Bills' sunny forecast
‘Bledsoe launched 610 passes last season. Alex Van Pelt, the veteran No. 2 quarterback, threw two, completed both for a total of five yards. Alex is 33, two years older than Bledsoe. He almost retired three years ago, putting his house on the market then taking it off and unretiring after Doug Flutie suffered a groin injury in the first week of training camp.’

DeHaven Has Special Shoes To Fill
‘"A great deal of what I do is Marv Levy’s organization," said DeHaven of the long-time Bills head coach. "He was one of the very first special teams coaches in the league. Like Parcells, Levy loved attention to the kicking game. The kicking game is just like offense and defense – you have to get better technique and better with your individual drills if you’re going to get better as a team. So, we’ve just tried to find drills to get guys better without having to work it as a team."’
Bills Fans Across America
My name is Carlos Maye & I am the Bills #1 Fan in Georgia. There are 2 words that sum up why I am Georgia's #1 Bills fan: Loyalty & Dedication. I have been a Bills fan ever since I attended my first Bills game at Orchard Park with my father at age 4. Being born & raised in Rochester, it is very tough to not be at every home game. I usually make it to at least 1 home game a year. Last year, I attended the Dolphins home game on my birthday. What a great birthday that was.
Flashback: Bills 42, Browns 0
The Buffalo Bills upped their winning streak to six games as they defeated the Cleveland Browns, 42-0, in a rematch of the 1989 AFC Divisional playoff. Buffalo scored on their first possession when RB Thurman Thomas ran in from three yards out. With 13:06 left in the second quarter, Thomas hit pay dirt again as he bolted in from 11 yards out. LB Shane Conlan blocked Cleveland's first FG attempt and the second attempt was foiled by a bad snap.

Ten 'must stops' on training camp tour
10. Last but not least, the Buffalo Bills. Tom Donahoe has done a masterful job over the past two years — clearing cap space, acquiring Drew Bledsoe, drafting well and securing quality veteran talent for the defense. Even if rookie running back Willis McGahee is out in shorts doing some drill work, it makes this stop a must. I think the Bills are poised to make a significant move this year, and I want to know this team inside and out.

Snippets from the film room
Against the run, the 3-4 scheme uses three big, two-gap defensive linemen playing nose tackle and the two end positions. These linemen are asked to occupy blockers up front, forcing the outside linebackers to seal off the edges. This leaves two inside linebackers chasing down the run instead of one, which helps explain why smaller 4-3 middle linebackers Zach Thomas of the Dolphins and London Fletcher of the Bills wear down during the season.
