Two Bills Drive

‘Buffalo was a great place for Hull to play – a working class city that appreciated the often unsung heroes along the offensive line.’

‘So it’s pretty obvious the Bills’ defense has regressed, rather than progressed, in its second season under defensive coordinator Jerry Gray.’

"(I have) a lot of great memories there, lot of friends there," said Gregg Williams. "They'll be some memories. We have a lot of guys that have 40, 50, 60 tickets to disperse this week. It's always fun to play in front of family and friends and go back home, but it's only (really) fun when you win."

"Buffalo may have an explosive offense, but its defense has been abysmal as the Bills are surrendering 36 points per game. The Texans are coming off their bye week. Two weeks ago, Carr passed for 188 yards and two touchdowns but was sacked seven times in a 35-17 loss at Philadelphia."

January 3, 1993: Down by 32 points with 28 remaining, the Bills staged the greatest comeback in NFL History. Buffalo scored four TDs in under seven minutes in the third quarter, and rallied from a 35-3 deficit to down the Houston Oilers 41-38 in overtime.

Chidi Ahanotu, Dave Moore and Pat Williams listed questionable.

A quiet leader, Lewis, who played in the 1981 Pro Bowl, retired prior to the ’84 season. His Buffalo numbers: Six seasons, 269 catches, 4,638 yards and 24 touchdown receptions. For his 13-year career: 397 catches, 6,724 yards and 41 touchdowns.

‘Moorman has been a force for the Bills, leading the NFL with a 47.8-yard average on 21 punts.’

‘Word from the locker room is that former New England Patriot football hero Drew Bledsoe has picked up a big antique farm in upstate New York where he and the brood will settle now that No. 11’s the Buffalo Bills’ No. 1 guy. Of course, Drew is still carrying the mortgage on the manse in Medfield, which is on the market for nearly $9 million but hasn’t found a buyer yet. Don’t fret, Bledsoe makes the big bucks, he can afford the two payments.’

‘"When you’ve got Drew Bledsoe, and he’s putting the ball up 50 times, you know he’s going to connect on some of them," Miller said. "As an offense we have to keep pace with them and find a way to put points on the board."’

‘Williams, 44, spent nine years in Houston, beginning in 1988 when he was a graduate assistant under Jack Pardee at the University of Houston. In 1990, Williams followed Pardee to the Oilers. Over the next seven seasons, he worked in quality control and coached special teams and linebackers before he was promoted to defensive coordinator.’

‘The Texans still have the worst offense in the NFL.’

Fourth-year wide receiver Peerless Price recorded his second 100-yard game of the season and the seventh of his career in Sunday's loss to the Raiders. Price caught 7 balls for 126 yards and a TD to give him 35 receptions for 493 yards and 4 TDs through five games this season.

‘The only thing that catches your eye more than the fact that Buffalo is scoring over 32 points per game is that it’s surrendering an NFL-worst 36.’

‘Coach Bill Callahan coaxed another inspired effort from his players. He and his staff devised solid game plans that kept the Bills off-balance and produced strong showings from offense, defense and special teams. His players overcame penalties, dropped passes, missing starters, a sold-out crowd and Bledsoe. Grade: A-‘
