Two Bills Drive

What a long, tumbling fall it’s been for a Bills franchise that has proudly earned its way to four Super Bowl games and has been one of the league’s true models for perennial success. Sure, the Bills faced a transition year in 2001 with an entirely-new front office and coaching staff and new systems on offense, defense and special teams. But 1-10? That’s a bit drastic.

Bills fullback Phil Crosby attended CJ’s press conference at the Wegmans on Niagara Falls Blvd. in Amherst while Kenyatta Wright represented the Bills at the Orchard Park Wegmans for the Potter Road Elementary class. Both winners asked the first question and were permitted to sit in the front row.

‘They have given the ball away 27 times (15 interceptions and 12 fumbles), resulting in 106 points by the opposition.’

‘Price partially tore the ACL late last season but didn’t have surgery.’

Bills’ center Craig Heimburger visited Buffalo City School #74 for the third time this season contributing to the Buffalo Bills-Target Art Program. Heimburger diligently assisted the students on their monoprints and calligraphs while completing a few art projects of his own.

‘Kasay has made 16 of 18 field-goal attempts, including a 51-yarder late in Sunday’s game at New Orleans.’

‘Carolina Panthers defensive end Jason Peter said Thursday that he won’t decide if he will retire until spring.’

‘San Francisco’s players and coaches vs. Buffalo’s players and coaches looked like a chess match between Bobby Fischer and those who play with Fisher-Price toys.’

‘Price will undergo surgery today or tomorrow to repair an anterior cruciate ligament and will miss the season’s final five games.’

‘No one has to sell the importance of this Sunday’s game between the 1-11 Carolina Panthers and the 1-10 Buffalo Bills to Chris Slade.’

‘Wide receiver Muhsin Muhammad, who practiced the past two days after missing the previous two games because of bruised shoulders, said he intends to return to the starting lineup on Sunday.’

‘Carolina’s matchup with Buffalo marks the first time since that New England-Cincinnati game eight years ago that two NFL teams with only one win to their name have met in a December game.’

“I don’t think he’s going to be able to go,” Seifert said. “I would love for him to be able to play, but I think it’s kind of a stretch.”

‘"I don’t know what’s up," Pat Williams said. "I’m mad about that. You’ve got to feel bad for the fans because they come to support us. They want to see us win, and we ain’t winning for them. It’s been backward for us. We haven’t been playing good here or away."’

‘Buffalo Bills defensive tackle Shawn Price will miss the rest of the season with ligament damage in his left knee.’
