Two Bills Drive

‘Donovan McNabb finally played like Donovan McNabb.’

‘Going back to last year’s playoffs, McNabb has lost three straight starts, generating just 20 points. He has four interceptions and no touchdown passes in those games.’

‘Eagles haven’t beaten the Bills since 1987 and haven’t won in Orchard Park since 1984. They’ve lost their last four meetings with the Bills and their last two here.’

‘Bills 22, Eagles 16.’

‘Bills squeak by Eagles in close game, 20-17.’

‘"I don’t feel like I’ve taken a back seat at all," Wire said. "I feel I’m sitting in the passenger seat for a while and I’m learning from a pretty good driving instructor. I’ve already learned a lot from the way he plays the game. I looked up to him coming into the NFL. I always liked the way Lawyer played the game. He plays with his heart, and I can relate to that.’

‘"These guys are like a wounded animal, and that makes them even more dangerous," wide receiver Eric Moulds said of the Eagles. "We have to be ready to play our best game of the year."’

‘Bills defensive coordinator Jerry Gray against Eagles quarterback Donovan McNabb.’

‘I think I have the winner in the Gregg Williams gadget play pool for the week.’

‘"We know they’re going to start blitzing when they get off the bus, so we have to get ready for that," said Bills coach Gregg Williams.’

‘His point: The Eagles may be 0-2, but they might be one of the best 0-2 teams he or anyone else has ever seen, and the 2-1 Bills are acutely aware that they are in for a mighty battle this afternoon at sold-out Ralph Wilson Stadium.’

‘”One time I was at a basketball game in high school and my pants ripped. I was sitting down and they split up the middle. I was glad I had a jacket. I took my jacket off and tied it around my waist.”‘

‘”(The Bills game) is very important,” McNabb says. “It’s very important for us as an offensive unit to go out and show people what we are capable of."’

‘"We have an answer for that," the head scriptologist says. "After they fall to 0-3, we’ll schedule the Eagles against their three division rivals – Washington, Dallas and the Giants. By the end of Week 6, the Eagles will be 3-3, their season will be saved, and interest will be red-hot in all four NFC East markets."’

‘Be it ever so humble, there’s sometimes no place like the road. Maybe it will all come together for the Eagles there.’
