Two Bills Drive

‘"It was extra special today because my dad and my family came to see us play," Wade Phillips said. "They don’t get up to Buffalo much because it’s so cold."’

‘Upon further review, the Kansas City Chiefs are down by contact, and probably out of the NFL playoff picture.’

‘Johnson completed 21 or 36 passes for 196 yards and two touchdowns, and almost effortlessly found open receivers.’

‘Buffalo punter Chris Mohr completed a 44-yard pass to flyer Daryl Porter on a fake punt from the Bills’ 18 in the second quarter because the Chiefs had only 10 men on the field.’

‘Johnson may be a pocket passer and the most sacked quarterback in the NFL, but he escaped enough Sunday to beat the Chiefs and wound up as the Bills’ leading rusher with 41 yards.’

‘During KC’s 21-17 loss to Buffalo on Sunday, Anders averaged 10.3 yards per carry. Trouble is, he had only four carries.’

‘Although he won one and lost another, Chiefs coach Gunther Cunningham said, "I never liked the instant replay in the first place and I still don’t."’

‘The Chiefs’ postseason chances appear to be cooked even before Thanksgiving.’

‘Rob Johnson’s two carpe diem-like game-winning drives in the fourth quarter, which included his gutsy 12-yard run with three minutes, six seconds to play, sealed, in the words of John Butler, a great, great win for the Buffalo Bills organization.’

‘Who says Rob Johnson can’t scramble?’

‘Rob Johnson can win, too.’

‘The Bills are 4-3 in AFC games and 2-3 in the AFC East. Kansas City is 4-4 in the AFC. The Bills have little room for error, the Chiefs have none.’

‘The most obvious is that he is sacked too often. He’s the most sacked quarterback in the NFL, which isn’t all his fault. It’s true that he holds the ball longer than he should, especially on third down when he tries too often to make the perfect play.’

‘"A lot of people take their shots at Ronnie, but they don’t understand that he had a lot of young guys to work with when he got here," special teamer Raion Hill said. "When coach DeHaven was here he had been here a while. He had his own system implemented and had his own thing going. When you start something new, you just have to be patient and work with it."’

‘The toughness of this venue may be too much to overcome for this Bills team. . . . Chiefs, 24-20.’
