Patriots past helps guide OC Brian Daboll in Buffalo ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. -- Deep inside the Cleveland Browns' training facility nine years ago, the sound of a racquetball bouncing against a whiteboard cut through the quarterbacks' meeting room. Brian Daboll, in 2009 in his first season as Cleveland's offensive coordinator, wanted to quiz then-Browns quarterback Derek Anderson on his knowledge of the new offense. Daboll flipped on a stopwatch, told Anderson to write down each formation and bounced the ball off the wall -- next to Anderson's head. "No, stop," Anderson once told his coach. "I'm trying to learn this s---." "Hurry up," Daboll responded. "Faster. Faster." "I used to go nuts," Anderson recalled last week. "[But] for quarterbacks, you've got to be able to process it quickly." Daboll, now in his first year as the Buffalo Bills' offensive coordinator, has not dug out the racquetball as part of his cram sessions with Anderson since the Bills signed the 14th-year quarterback on Oct. 9 and made him their starter a week later. Anderson threw three interceptions and lost a fumble in a 35-7 road loss to the Indianapolis Colts.

Thank You!

10-29: Sean McDermott with Schopp & the Bulldog on WGR (10:07) A rare gameday appearance by Sean McDermott who joins Schopp & the Bulldog now outside the stadium! #Bills McDermott - I like our chances. This is a good opponent, have to play well for four quarters. McDermott on Derek Anderson - It's still a challenge, he didn't have the preseason. The more time he's here, the more comfortable he'll be. McDermott on McCoy - He's cleared concussion protocol and he's ready to go. McDermott - Sometimes the best defense is when their QB is on the bench. The more chances he has to succeed, the more likely he will succeed. McDermott on Belichick - Loose lips sink ships. Sometimes that's why I am the way I am during the week. McDermott on Gronk - It's a matchup game. When you draft a player like Tremaine, sometimes you do it with matchups like this in mind. McDermott on Terrelle Pryor - He was here today and we did spend some time with him. I'll leave it at that for now. McDermott - It's a product of our success last season. You get primetime games. We plan on having a lot more in the years going forward.
