Two Bills Drive

‘”I thought he had good coverage, I thought he put his hands up when the receiver put his hands up, but the ref that caught it was behind him,” said cornerback Antoine Winfield, who has three of the aforementioned penalties this season to rank second on the Bills behind Watson. “I don’t know how he could see if there was any contact up front.”‘

‘However, film study is an art form and Bill Belichick and Dick Vermeil came up with effective plans to slow him down. Now we will see if Bledsoe and Buffalo offensive coordinator Kevin Gilbride have a counter-attack.’

‘However, Buffalo’s 1-2 record in division games and 2-5 mark in conference games makes its road to a playoff berth far more arduous.’

‘I honestly don’t know how or when I became a Bills fan. I followed the team religiously, even before they became kings of the AFC in the early 90’s. I remember writing letters to the organization and getting bumper stickers and team photos a few weeks later in the mail. And, yes, I still have them. Heck, my entry in the fourth-grade Halloween painting contest was a pumpkin-turned-Bills helmet.’

”’This is a game of inches. And yesterday, we gave up yards, and it cost us ultimately.”’

‘The Bills have registered just 21 sacks in 10 games.’

‘To make room for Jones, the Bills released tight end Corey Geason and Ula Tuitele, who both played primarily on special teams.’

‘Jones, coming off surgery to repair torn cartilage in his left knee, joins the Bills six weeks after he was released by Tampa Bay. It wasn’t immediately known when he would be able to begin playing for Buffalo, although he was added to the team’s active roster.’

A veteran pass rushing specialist who has experience playing at every position across the defensive line … Ranks seventh on the club's all-time sack list with 24 career sacks … Savvy talent who has unmatched power and speed … Lined up at LDE in 2001 to make room for Simeon Rice after playing on the right side the prior two seasons (1999-2000.

The Bills announced that the team has signed veteran defensive end Marcus Jones. In addition, the team has released tight end Corey Geason and linebacker Ula Tuitele.

‘Kragthorpe failed to disclose that his brother, Steve, who coaches the quarterbacks for the Buffalo Bills, has been mentioned as a replacement for McBride.’

‘Season-long TV ratings for Bills’ games in Buffalo are running more than 30 percent above last season’s figures and are among the highest in an NFL market-by-market comparison.’

‘If the Buffalo Bills fail to make the playoffs in this season of overwhelming NFL parity, they will look back on an opportunity lost in Week 11.’

‘”We just have to live with it,” he said. “The ref made the call … that’s what he saw. But it’s a hard bullet to bite.’

‘Offensive guard Victor Allotey made Buffalo’s 53-man roster for three seasons (1998-2000) but was inactive for 47 of 50 games (including two playoffs). He was signed by Kansas City, made the active roster for one game last year and all 10 games this season but has been inactive for every one. Allotey has now been in the league for five seasons, is vested in the NFL’s retirement fund, has been inactive for 58 of his 61 games and hasn’t played a down in the league.’
