Two Bills Drive

‘Steve Freeman, the outstanding Bills safety from 1975 to ’86, will serve as the field judge for Sunday’s game.’

‘Overall, the Bills are starting or getting regular contributions from 14 rookie or first-year players.’

‘P-I PICK: Seahawks, 27-17.’

‘Joseph, a safety who started 14 games for the Seahawks in his first tour with the team, is just glad to be back in the NFL.’

‘During his first three years as the Seattle Seahawks’ special teams coach, Pete Rodriguez saw his unit give up a total of two return touchdowns. In eight games this year, the Seahawks have already matched that number.’

‘Technically, Sunday’s game between Seattle and Buffalo is the Bills ninth regular season contest of 2001. In reality, it marks the start of the 2002 preseason. Playoff hopes disappeared for all but the most optimistic in late September. The primary goal for the rest of the season — building a functional offense around Rob Johnson, making a decision possible on whether the quarterback is worthy of the contract restructuring and extension that salary capenomics mandate — crashed to the turf at Foxboro Stadium last Sunday afternoon.’

The Bills today announced that the team has signed veteran center/long snapper Mo Unutoa (pronounced oo-nuh-TOE-uh) to the 53-man roster. To make room on the roster, the Bills released center Michael Early. Unutoa will wear jersey #68 with the Bills.

‘”I want to make sure that the Bills get back to (their) standard of football before (I think) about going anywhere else.”‘

‘Few players in team history have been as universally liked as Van Pelt.’
