Two Bills Drive

‘"You don’t do it by talking about it, by looking at the roster and looking at the stats on guys. You do it by going out and hitting a guy in the mouth every single play to win a game. That’s how you win games and have successful seasons."’

‘On Draft Day 1998, 241 players were selected, including 34 linebackers. None of them was named London Fletcher.’

‘What Drew Bledsoe did the Bills get? The quarterback who threw for 128 TDs and guided four playoff teams in his first six seasons in New England or the one who was sacked 105 times and threw more interceptions (39) than touchdowns (38) the past three years?’

‘Be patient. It may take minutes, hours and even days to get your guy.’

‘"We can’t keep much of the new merchandise in the store. We have back orders on the new jerseys that we are trying to fill."’

‘"We had to do a lot of things last year that weren’t very comfortable," said Donahoe, referring to the release of nearly 20 players, including Doug Flutie, Henry Jones, Ted Washington and Antowain Smith. "But they had to be done to try and get the team on the right course. We feel we’re on the track. We haven’t headed very far down the track, but at least we’re on the track."’

‘That fact has left skeptics asking that if the 30-year-old Bledsoe is a player in his prime, with five or six good seasons ahead of him, as the Bills are convinced, why then were they the only serious bidder?’

‘Community groups invited to the camp — mainly children and teenagers — will receive free vision screenings as part of a tour.’

‘Hype is nice, but doesn’t score points or win games. Bledsoe should help do both, but how the rest of the newcomers around him fare will ultimately decide just how much better Buffalo becomes this year.’

This is a tentative schedule and is subject to change. Fans are encouraged to call the team’s training camp hotline (800-441-5942) or keep checking back to this page for more accurate information.

When Scott Norwood returned to Buffalo this past weekend to participate in the Jim Kelly-Dan Marino "Final Showdown" flag football game, he proved to everybody that he is a winner.

#4. I think Drew Bledsoe will be reborn in Buffalo. You know how much fun it’ll be for him to launch the deep ball to Peerless Price and Eric Moulds? He didn’t have that in New England after Terry Glenn imploded.

Jim Kelly can still lead a comeback. The former Buffalo Bills quarterback, retired for five years, sparked a 23-point third quarter as the Buffalo Bills All-Stars beat the N-F-L All-Stars 42-34 tonight in an exhibition flag football game.

Five years from retirement and two weeks from becoming the fourth member of the Buffalo Bills organization to be inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame, Jim Kelly showed his arm still has what it takes to lead the Bills to an exciting win over long-time rival Dan Marino.
