BillsBeat - December 17, 2000

Bills/Patriots scouting report

‘Johnson is banged up terribly, and he might not be physically capable of producing much on offense.’

D and C | Dec 17, 2000

Christie prefers his QEW connection

‘But because Christie is one of several veteran Bills who will be an unrestricted free agent in February, there is a chance today’s meeting with the New England Patriots may be his final home game in Buffalo.’

Toronto Sun | Dec 17, 2000

Spot duty for some Patriots

‘The reality of the situation is, however, that players are playing either for a chance to return next season or not.’

Boston Globe | Dec 17, 2000

Double header

‘The Bills at least have a reason for their problems. They’re really banged up on defense, having lost key defenders like Sam Cowart, Antoine Winfield and Sam Rogers for the duration.’

Boston Herald | Dec 17, 2000

Pats' plan a puzzler

‘"The no-huddle has a place and we’ve shown we can use it. If we felt it would help by running it all the time, it’s something we wouldn’t hesitate to do."’

Boston Herald | Dec 17, 2000

Pats, Bills play for pride . . . and a shot at a job next year

‘"Well, look at it this way. We definitely have more experience this season in games that mean nothing than the Bills. So I guess we’ll have to see how they react."’

Providence Journal | Dec 17, 2000

It's not for the playoffs, but it's not a meaningless game

‘The Bills and Patriots play today at Ralph Wilson Stadium and, for the first time since 1987, neither team will be playing in the postseason.’

Providence Journal | Dec 17, 2000

No QB controversy in Phillips's mind

‘There is no quarterback controversy as far as Wade Phillips is concerned. For as long as he remains coach of the Buffalo Bills, Rob Johnson will be the starter, and Doug Flutie the backup.’

Providence Journal | Dec 17, 2000

A Quarterback Keeper In Foxboro

‘Bledsoe, who turns 29 on Valentine’s Day, has said he would like a contract with bonuses tied to the performance of the team, rather than to his performance.’

Hartford Courant | Dec 17, 2000

Patriots-Bills Preview

‘If Johnson cannot find Eric Moulds (88 catches, 13.6 yards per catch), then he basically runs for his life and hopes for the best.’

Springfield Union News | Dec 17, 2000

BILLS, PATS PLAY FOR PRIDE

‘”We’ve got two games left,” said Bills quarterback Rob Johnson. “I think we’re all playing for next year since the playoffs are gone. We’re trying to get a couple wins and end on a positive note that we can take into next year.”‘

Buffalo News | Dec 17, 2000

BILLS AND PATRIOTS TRYING TO PROVE THEY'RE NOT DEAD ON ARRIVAL

‘The offense that gets out of its own way the best will win. . . . Bills, 23-17.’

Buffalo News | Dec 17, 2000

SOMEONE WILL PAY BUTLER BIG BUCKS

‘Butler figures to be in high demand around the NFL when his contract with the Bills runs out after this season. The market value of the top general managers in the NFL is well above $1 million a year.’

Buffalo News | Dec 17, 2000

CHILLY DRAFT BILLS' EARLY-ROUND SELECTIONS NEVER REALLY HEATED UP IN 2000

‘While the draft netted some promising talent, the overall impact of the eight-player rookie class of 2000 has been limited. Most coaches and general managers claim that you need two, maybe three years before you can judge draft picks. If that’s the case, it remains to be seen how many of the Bills’ rookies will be hits or misses.’

Buffalo News | Dec 17, 2000

AFC EAST RIVALS TURN COLD SHOULDER BUFFALO'S WAY

‘”At the last realignment meeting they asked each owner to pick two teams from their present divisions which are their top rivals,” Bills owner Ralph Wilson said this past week. “I picked the Miami Dolphins and the New York Jets, which is pretty obvious. Then they asked for one top rival out of the division. I picked Pittsburgh, because when the Steelers come here they bring about 20,000 fans with them.”‘
