Two Bills Drive

‘”I really don’t know what it will feel like when I walk back out on that field,” Hull said Saturday prior to a cocktail reception put on in his honor by the Bills. “For the 11 years I came down that tunnel, I felt like I was walking on air. I got a feeling I will experience something close to that tomorrow. I do know one thing: it will be emotional for me.”‘

Kent Hull, who started at center longer than any player in Buffalo Bills history, will be the 19th inductee on the Wall of Fame during halftime ceremonies on the field today.

‘"The difference between good teams, the teams that win, and the teams that don’t win in this league is so small now that you can make that transition very quickly. This team has a lot of talent. We’ve got a ways to go. But we do feel we have enough talent to compete with anybody."’

‘To stop that ominous threat, they must do something they’ve yet to do this season — have a strong pass rush inside with tackles Sam Adams, John Parrella and end/tackle Chris Cooper.’

‘Is this that 3-13 mess from a year ago? Who would have thought, with road games at preseason Super Bowl favorites Pittsburgh and St. Louis in the first six weeks, that the Raiders’ toughest early-season test would be at Buffalo?’

‘The Raiders have the top-ranked offense in the NFL and have scored 113 points in three games. The Bills own the league’s sixth-ranked offense and have put up 132 points in four games.’

‘"Hey, I think this is normal play for Drew," Van Pelt said. "I can see Drew playing like this all year."’

‘Ruben Brown, the All-Pro left guard, looks on admiringly as Jennings dominates one-on-one drills in training camp. "Best feet in the NFL," Brown shouts. "Best feet in the NFL."’

‘He gets by these days on his savvy, on wisdom collected, distilled and applied. He burned Tennessee last Sunday for 144 yards on four catches, capturing the Bills’ full attention as they prepared for today.’

‘Not only has Davis been winning for almost 40 years with the Raiders, he’s still battling the NFL.’

‘The Raiders are ripe for the upset, but their offensive balance will overcome the Bills’ pass-heavy attack in a 31-27 victory.’

‘A $15 field house ticket will include beer, soft drinks, coffee, snacks, Buffalo Bills Experience games and parking. A $30 VIP suite ticket will add a buffet and the chance to watch the game in a stadium suite.’

‘Venison Donation Coalition, a statewide organization in Bath, has arranged for Booth 115 near Section 155 to donate a portion of its sales to the VDC processing services needed to supply deer meat to the needy.’
