Two Bills Drive

RB Travis Henry had a banner season in 2002, rushing for 1,438 yards that ranks fifth on the Bills' single season chart. He became the 8th Bills' RB with a 1000-yard season and moved into the Bills' top 20 in career rushing yards.

I 100%, most definitely have BUFFALO BILL PRIDE oozing out from every part of my being. I am the best and most devoted Buffalo Bill fan in Maine!!!

In drills this spring, special teams coach Danny Smith has had to make adjustments to Lindell’s kickoff style in order to improve his consistency in getting the ball inside the 10-yard line.

“His consistency wasn’t very good on his kickoffs,” Smith said. “We’ve changed his approach and we’re kicking off better right now.”

But is it good enough to have Lindell, who signed a four-year, $4.25 million deal, kick away as far as he can as a strategy?

“To be honest, I don’t think so,” Smith said. “There’s only a handful of guys in the league who can do it and he’s not one of them. He’s a good kicker, but we’re going to have to move the ball around.”

‘Pro Bowl guard Ruben Brown of the Buffalo Bills will host his third annual motorcycle run to benefit the Ruben Brown Foundation on Sunday at Ralph Wilson Stadium. Registration will be from 10:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. for the rain-or-shine event.’

Many expressed surprise in Dallas when Tucker was released because it was widely regarded that he played well.

Reich had been studying for several years there to become a pastor, but on July 1, he will instead take over as the head of the Reformed Theological Seminary campus in Charlotte…. Now 41, Reich is still best remembered for leading the greatest comebacks in both NCAA and NFL history. He also spent the majority of his 14-year NFL career on the bench, which will humble a man.

‘"It was basically a case of familiarity," Sidney said. "I was comfortable with the system and the coaches. There wouldn’t be a learning curve. The (playing time) situation here was good, but talent always works itself out."’

‘Prior to acquiring Tucker, the Bills had no backups at guard with NFL game experience.’

‘If Williams fails, the Bills eat the contract. Right now they’re greasing the skids before the season starts.’

‘Kevin [Gilbride] sure feels like he’s in a pretty good position because (he) has enough talent all the way around to go in either direction he wants to go or (he) can kind of go back and forth and keep people off balance. It’s easy to throw two tight ends an two running backs in and start pounding somebody or go four wide receivers and let it rip. I think it’s really going to be, No. 1, game planning, and No. 2, how our personality develops on offense.’

‘Buffalo has been looking for depth at the position, needing backups for starters Ruben Brown and Marques Sullivan.’

‘He started the final seven games of last season with Dallas before being released by the Cowboys earlier this month.’

It will be held this Sunday, June 22, 2003 at Ralph Wilson Stadium. Among the special guests participating include current Bills Drew Bledsoe, Alex Van Pelt and Pat Williams as well as Hall of Fame Bills QB Jim Kelly, and former Bills Fred Smerlas and Ted Washington.

The Bills today announced that the team has signed guard Ross Tucker. After playing collegiately at Princeton, Tucker broke into the NFL as an undrafted rookie free agent with the Washington Redskins in 2001. He was claimed off waivers by Dallas on 10/24/02. After being inactive for his first two games as a Cowboy, he went on to start the final seven games of the seasons at left guard.

‘The Buffalo Bills, along with Erie County and Orchard Park officials, are planning an emergency disaster exercise Thursday at Ralph Wilson Stadium, the first time the club has conducted such a test with local government authorities.’
