Two Bills Drive

Four-man defensive lines were kings. The Steelers started the 2001 season as the league’s only true 3-4. Gregg Williams eliminated it from the Bills’ game plan after replacing Wade Phillips despite back-to-back playoff seasons.

Gregg Williams hired Kevin Gilbride to oversee the Bills offense this season. That does not mean, however, that Buffalo will make amends with Rob Johnson and bring him back at a drastically reduced salary. I just don’t see how that could happen.

Interview with the King of Speed.

‘Modrak has said often he would leave only for a GM position to his liking. He wouldn’t say if that was Atlanta.’

WR Avion Black and Safety Raion Hill are the only Bills who makes his list.

‘After his ordeal in Buffalo, Wade Phillips isn’t interested in pursuing an NFL head coaching job. At least not any time soon.’

The following players have been allocated for NFL-Europe:

David Dinkins, QB, Amsterdam

Reggie Allen, WR, Amsterdam

Chad Sears, S, Amsterdam

Scott Keys, WR, Berlin

Curtis Alexander, RB, Frankfurt

DeVonte Peterson, DT, Scotland

Jimmy Robinson, LB, Scotland

When the Buffalo Bills add players to their roster, they arrive here from places all over the world. Although many return to these places during the off-season, several players have stayed and made a home for themselves and their families in Buffalo and Western New York. Buffalo has embraced these professional athletes as valuable members of the community.

‘Bills players complained that Sheppard’s game plans were too predictable and didn’t take full advantage of their skills. The Bills think Gilbride will do a better job of that.’

‘He’d better be right about Gilbride, because he just put his job in his hands.’

‘Jim Kelly’s 4-year-old son,Hunter, was released Monday afternoon from Children’s Hospital after spending the weekend in the hospital.’

‘Donahoe said another meeting is scheduled with Syracuse officials, though he declined to say when or the time frame for making a date at the Dome.’

‘Owner Arthur Blank and coach Dan Reeves met Monday with Buffalo director of player personnel Tom Modrak, interviewing him for the vice president/general manager position…’.

‘Buffalo Bills director of football operations Tom Modrak, one of the league’s top talent scouts, interviewed on Monday with new Atlanta Falcons owner Arthur Blank as the team continued its search for a general manager in its restructured front office.’

‘"I’m delighted to be here," Gilbride said. "I’ve had some great experiences here, some positive, some not so positive. But I always had great admiration for the fans and the quality of this organization."’
