Two Bills Drive

Curtis Alexander was a game hero, rushing 17 times for 109 yards (average 6.4 yards) and was the leading receiver as well catching 4 passes for 51 yards as their team rebounded from last week’s first loss of the season last week without him. Alexander had many critcal plays including a 24 yard run and a 34 yard run and a 30 yard pass.

The number 11 is the number of former Bills QB Rob Johnson, and just happens to be the number of Bills new QB Drew Bledsoe. A fan was sold a “taped” jersey with Bledsoe’s name taped over a Johnson Jersey. Video clip included.

‘The quarterback is most visible, and how Bledsoe carries himself will be watched closely in the coming months. How he represents Buffalo the team is how he represents Buffalo the town.’

‘"There have been two or maybe three centers besides Kent who I thought have been the superior centers in the game. Mike Webster (of Pittsburgh) was one. Then there was (Miami’s) Dwight Stephenson and (Pittsburgh’s) Dermontti Dawson. Each were a little different. I’d have to rate Kent the No. 1 pass protector of the four."’

‘He’s still the $40 million man, and now he has the right quarterback and presumably the right offensive coordinator, Kevin Gilbride.’

‘Hull, a three-time Pro Bowler and hands-down the greatest center in Bills history, has been chosen as the Wall’s 19th member.’

‘Tickets ($32.50, $25.50) are available at Tickets.com and Tops Friendly Markets.’

‘My first year covering the team was 1973. And in the 29 years until now, nearly 600 players – 584, to be exact – have worn a Bills’ uniform at least once during the regular season. And of that number, none did I like and respect more than Kent Hull.’

‘“I’m in an organization now which really believes in what I’m capable of doing,” Cowart said. “The most important thing I can do is just get myself ready.”‘

‘A commanding win for Drew Bledsoe.’

‘”We talked about the competition between the Bills and Dolphins and what that rivalry always meant to us,” said Kelly. “Both Dan and I know this event is going to be competitive . . . but the bottom line is we’re going to come to enjoy ourselves and raise some money for some charities around here.”‘

"Welcome to Buffalo Drew, where the wings are hot and the weather is cold."

Two veterans have made a positive first impression with the coaching staff and their new teammates are linebacker London Fletcher and safety Billy Jenkins by showing up in camp when not required.

‘The question is: Does the fifth-round draft choice have the talent to help the Bills’ defense as a rookie?’
