Two Bills Drive

‘”It was fun, it really was. It was fun to hear it from the crowd a little bit and to step into the situation where we’re behind and we have the opportunity to go win the ball game and make a couple of plays. We didn’t follow through on it, but it felt good.”‘

‘Fletcher was credited with a game-high 13 tackles, including nine solos. Seau topped the Chargers with 10 stops.’

‘…Buffalo’s defense deserves the credit for this one. They didn’t force any turnovers, but forced eight San Diego punts and stopped six drives without allowing a first down.’

‘The award is based on responses to questions regarding entertainment and fan activities, improvements on and off the field, fan issues involving tickets, concessions, parking and tailgating, fan loyalty issues and community relations.’

On Tuesday, December 17, from 5:00-6:30 PM, the Bills and the Tops Rookie Club rookie club will celebrate the holiday season with 80 kids from the Salvation Army, Boys and Girls Club of Buffalo and Gateway-Longview.

With two games to play the Bills already have four more wins than they did a year ago. That four-win increase is the second-greatest one season turnaround in team history and is one shy of the all-time best one season turnaround of +5 accomplished in 1964, ’73 and ’88.

‘Flutie, inserted for Drew Brees (13 of 24, 148 yards) midway through the fourth quarter, gave the team a brief spark. But at this point, the team’s battery is nearly dead.’

‘"We needed this,” Gilbride said. "We’ve played some good games and not won, so for us to win a game that wasn’t one of our best, and still come out on top, I think that makes it very satisfying."’

‘"For him to complete that first pass is just like Doug," Brees said. "He could be sitting there just as cold as ice sitting on the bench and he can come in and throw a 50-yard post. It is pretty amazing. Once he did that, I thought we were going to roll right down the field and score and get it again and score."’

‘Buffalo effortlessly marched down the field 64 yards in just seven plays to score the winning touchdown with 52 seconds left. Running back Travis Henry looked like the East Coast version of LaDainian Tomlinson, rushing for 53 yards on five carries during the drive.’

‘RT Vaughn Parker, a Buffalo native, returned after missing four games with a triceps injury. But the line, for the second straight week, didn’t play well. That, among other things, was why Schottenheimer went to the more mobile Doug Flutie at QB in the fourth quarter.’

‘DEFENSIVE LINE — D – Those were some big holes Travis Henry was rumbling through. At the point of attack, the Chargers weren’t attacking.’
