BillsBeat - October 7, 2002

Points galore add up to losing score

‘Drew Bledsoe’s passing statistics are spectacular ones. The defense’s weekly yields are not.’

Buffalo News | Oct 7, 2002

Raiders take offense to Bills

‘Bledsoe and his offensive mates traded punch for punch with the Raiders’ Hall of Fame-caliber attack. But the Bills’ defense once again proved it is not ready for prime time.’

Buffalo News | Oct 7, 2002

Oakland receivers run circles around Buffalo defenders

‘The Bills also are paying the price for playing two inexperienced players at safety with Wire and Prioleau. Both had coverage breakdowns that led to touchdowns.’

Buffalo News | Oct 7, 2002

Rookie's vision fatal to Bills

‘"I was just trying to read his eyes," Buchanon said. "I kind of read his eyes a little bit, and he kind of telegraphed it a little bit. You know, that’s Drew Bledsoe. He can put it just about anywhere. Maybe he saw something different. I don’t know. I was just trying to do my job."’

Buffalo News | Oct 7, 2002

Defenders can dance, but they can't stop anyone

‘The Raiders piled up 495 yards. They had 10 plays of 20 yards or more. Five of their touchdown drives took 2:12 or less. Those weren’t drives. They were Olympic sprint relays.’

Buffalo News | Oct 7, 2002

Blazing-guns offense makes Raiders forget Gruden

‘The Raiders are hurting, all right. They’re hurting every opponent that gets in their way.’

Buffalo News | Oct 7, 2002

Moulds, Price hit 100 yards again

‘"It’s always tough to swallow when you lose," Price added. "When you feel you’ve played well enough to win, it’s even tougher."’

Buffalo News | Oct 7, 2002

Monday Billboard

‘The teams combined for 974 yards and 80 points. They combined for 73 points after the first quarter. They had 512 yards before halftime. The over-under of 53 points was obliterated by the third quarter.’

Buffalo News | Oct 7, 2002

Unbeaten, unequaled

‘As for history, the Raiders have never started 5-0 — but get that chance Sunday at shockingly winless St. Louis.’

Sacramento Bee | Oct 7, 2002

Porter develops into another threat

‘Playing most of the time as the slot receiver against Bills safeties Pierson Prioleau and Coy Wire, a rookie, the deceptively strong, 6-foot-2 Porter surpassed his career highs for receptions (six) and yardage (62), set Sept. 15 against Pittsburgh.’

Sacramento Bee | Oct 7, 2002

Rice looks merely mortal for a change

‘"They wanted to do a little roughhouse out there," Rice said. "I was taking shots from behind and to the head. I wanted to let them know I wasn’t going to take it."’

Sacramento Bee | Oct 7, 2002

Raiders survive despite miscues

‘"It wasn’t easy out there," Raiders quarterback Rich Gannon said. "It comes down to a couple of plays. That’s how it is in a game like that."’

Contra Costa Times | Oct 7, 2002

Buchanon turns vision into reality

‘"That’s Drew Bledsoe," Buchanon said. "He’s going to try to put it in tight places where people don’t expect him to put it."’

Contra Costa Times | Oct 7, 2002

Raiders thrive with blur in backfield

‘The Bills built their defensive game plan around stopping receivers Tim Brown and Jerry Rice, which seems reasonable enough. Unfortunately for them, that left Garner and Jerry Porter unchaperoned, and they combined for 294 total yards as the Raiders (after San Diego’s loss to Denver) became the league’s only unbeaten team.’

Contra Costa Times | Oct 7, 2002

Rookie Walker delivers

‘Hall of Famer and former Bills coach Marv Levy watched the game from the press box. He also coached at Cal.’
