Two Bills Drive

‘If Flutie truly was the "savior" of the Bills franchise, as many readily declare, season ticket sales for the following year would have skyrocketed. They did not.’

‘The [Buffalo Convention and Visitors Bureau], acting on the advice of president Richard Geiger, decided to use Johnson in the video and in the visitors guide.’

‘…the switch will boost offensive productivity and reduce quarterback Rob Johnson’s alarming sack count. The West Coast offense uses shorter QB drops and quick, short passes to set up the running game.’

‘"Coach Williams told him that the reason he wanted him to go was because they run the west coast offense in Amsterdam and he’ll be able to learn it first hand," Roth’s father said. "It’s a great opportunity for him to showcase himself."’

‘She only hammered out a $30 million, six-year deal for Flutie, that’s all. Do they have a Rookie of the Year award for agents?’

‘It appears that Buffalo is happy with its QB pick —- San Diego is ecstatic.’

‘In his letter to the players, Williams made it clear that he wasn’t impressed by their 41-percent participation in offseason workouts a year ago. He said he expected everyone here this time – not just for minicamp but the 16-week offseason. He was especially tough on the offensive linemen.’

‘Perhaps it’s inevitable. Lose four consecutive Super Bowls and even the coaches of girls high school basketball teams in California will invoke the Buffalo Bills as what not to emulate.’

‘"There was speculation (in the media) that there would be a small turnout, but that’s not what I expected," Williams said. "I expect 100 percent and I thought the guys would be excited, just like they are. They can’t wait to get started."’

‘Here are my top five…Jim Kelly…Joe Ferguson…Jack Kemp…Doug Flutie…Frank Reich…’.

‘"I guess you need someone you believe is going to be the guy, and, for me, it’s a situation I’ve been looking for for 17 years."’

Did somebody say agressive? "…if the quarterback isn’t throwing, ducking or running after a count of three after the ball is snapped, he has too much time."

‘Since free agency signing period started on March 2, the Chargers have issued contracts worth an estimated $100 million. Or, roughly, the same number of people predicting the diminutive Flutie, 38, would never survive in the NFL.’

‘"Everyone gets caught up in Doug’s mobility, and that is a big part of the way he plays,” Turner said. "But he is a very, very good passer. He does a good job throwing from the pocket."’
