Two Bills Drive

Former Buffalo Bills' running back Thurman Thomas will receive the 17th annual Ralph C. Wilson Jr. Distinguished Service Award from the Monday Quarterback Club at separate ceremonies on December 1 and 2. The former team standout will be honored during pregame ceremonies on the field at the Bills-Dolphins home game on Sunday, December 1 and at the Monday Quarterback Club's luncheon at HSBC Arena the next day.

Stephanie (Miss October 2003) is a regular visitor of the Stadium Wall. Please congratulate her on the Stadium Wall.

‘”Obviously from the time the trade happened, I’ve been getting questions about this game,” Bledsoe said. “Everyone has been focused on it. The thing that I said from Day One is that I hope when we get to the game that it’s fun from the standpoint that it has implications for a division race … and that’s what’s happened. I’m excited about that, our players are excited about that and we’re focused on it in that way.”‘

‘Buffalo may be running into the Patriots at exactly the wrong time.’

Ok. So there's no question this is the best group of receivers Bledsoe has had during his career but who's the best individual target he's had? Eric Moulds? Here is a list of Bledsoe's 34 touchdown targets during his career (regular season):

‘You have to love the buildup of this affair between the hometown Pats and their divisional enemies of New York’s western borders. A date with the Bills in their present streaking state would usually be enough to peak the imagination and ping the chest hairs, but the Bledsoe drama to inhale and taste makes it all even better.’

‘Much has been made this week of Buffalo’s new quarterback, its suddenly high-powered offense and the propensity to engage in the overtime game. But if the Patriots don’t quickly improve their own offense, you could play quarterback for the Bills and it really wouldn’t matter.’

"Buffalo has gained confidence each week and with Miami playing a tough game Monday night in Green Bay, the Bills have a chance to take over the AFC East lead. Expect a high-scoring affair with Buffalo winning a close one at home."

‘The Patriots’ problems go beyond Brady – their offensive line has struggled, they have had trouble running and stopping the run, and they aren’t making as many big plays on special teams – but as long as they are behind Bledsoe’s Bills in the AFC East, Brady’s going to hear about it.’

‘The roster remains mostly intact – only three starters from the Super Bowl are gone – and coach Bill Belichick didn’t suffer any losses on his staff. But the Patriots seem to have forgotten how they won the Super Bowl in the first place.’

‘The Patriots genuinely liked Bledsoe. They admired him as a player and maybe even more so as a man.’

‘Free agent defensive end Marcus Jones paid the Buffalo Bills a visit Thursday. Jones, a former first-round draft pick, was released by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers three weeks ago.’

‘The early returns suggest vindication for Bledsoe and expulsion from Mensa for Belichick.’

‘”We’re not pushing the panic button around here,” wide receiver Troy Brown insisted, “but we are pushing the urgency button.”‘
