Two Bills Drive

‘"London Fletcher made a good play," Stewart said. "He’s already about 5-2. For me to get under his shoulder pads, that’s something that’s hard to do."’

‘"It’s a lot of fun," Moulds said. "However, I think at the end of the game, we were flat. Drew got kind of mad at us, and he really motivated us to finish the game the way we started. I think we need to learn how to close games out. I think that has been a problem for us. We need to finish what we start."’

‘In the fourth quarter, the Lions were called for three penalties on the same play — an offside and two infractions for unnecessary roughness. The Bills accepted one roughing penalty, on linebacker Barrett Green, for 15 yards.’

‘On the fourth-down play that was stopped, the Lions might have gone to the same play once too often.’

‘“The soap opera is going to start (today),” said linebacker Tedy Bruschi, who will face off against his former teammate Sunday when the Patriots travel to Buffalo to face the Bills. “Everyone is going to have their comparisons, Bledsoe and (Tom) Brady. I think if we just realize Buffalo has a good football team with a lot of weapons, we’ll be a lot better off. As hard as it’s going to be, we have to treat it as another football game.”’

Gregg Williams: "We win as a team and we lose as a team. Offensively we did some great things on controlling the clock and it was real nice to see the defense come up with an important stop at the end of the ball game. It was good confidence for the team."

Do you know that you guys have won three in a row?

‘The high-powered Buffalo Bills…’.

‘The Detroit Lions’ bid for a second straight fourth-quarter rally fell short. Inches short.’

‘Buffalo (5-3), which was just 3-13 last season, has won three straight games for the first time since November 2000. In all three games, it has shown flashes of an improving defense.’

‘Let’s hear it for the Buffalo Bills. Where? At a Pacific Beach saloon called Blind Melons, where on NFL Sundays those faithful to the Bills represent what has become an NFL subculture: persons with an allegiance to a particular team getting together and viewing telecasts of its games through DirecTV’s "NFL Sunday Ticket" package.’

The Buffalo Bills have announced S Tony Driver, CB Antoine Winfield, LB Dominique Stevenson, G Mike Pucillo, T Mike Williams, WR Andre Rone and DE Ryan Denney as inactive for Week 8.

‘"I think his first three years, he was buried in Jacksonville behind Mark Brunell," Keyshawn Johnson said. "He came in, he played well, got traded to Buffalo. Here comes Little Corn Flakes. Little Corn Flake Flutie comes, he’s the town hero, all 5-foot-7 of him. In Buffalo, the underdog city. Rob gets an opportunity to play. He gets hurt. Flutie comes in, scores against Jacksonville, runs around, makes some plays. Everybody is yelling, "Yeah!’ So now they’re all against Rob. Rob comes back, makes a few bad plays, makes a few good ones. Boo. So he’s always in a battle there.’
