Two Bills Drive

Miami’s top draft choice in ’72, Kadish was on the team’s taxi squad as a rookie and witnessed the only undefeated season in NFL history. The following preseason, a strong performance by Kadish during a nationally televised game caught Bills coach Lou Saban’s attention.

‘The Bills must cut from 68 to 53 players by 4 p.m. Sunday.’

Adding Drew Bledsoe is the move of the offseason. If the two lines can stay healthy, the Bills will compete in the AFC East. The ball will go down the field to a good receiving group.

‘With nine days to recover before the start of the NFL’s regular season, the Buffalo Bills starters will play halfway into the second quarter of tonight’s preseason finale against the Detroit Lions at Ford Field.’

‘With three preseason games over with and the regular-season opener against the New York Jets just 10 days away, Riemersma has just one catch for three yards.’

‘The Bills have until Sunday to trim down to the 53-man roster limit. Tonight’s preseason game against the Detroit Lions could go a long way in deciding which players stay. Here is a look at some players fighting for jobs…’

‘In fact, if it were up to McMahon — the second-year quarterback and designated starter for the opener Sept. 8 — the regular season could start now.’

‘Quarterback Mike McMahon will start and play 2-4 series, depending on how many plays the offense runs, before turning the offense over to rookie Joey Harrington and No. 3 quarterback Ty Detmer.’

‘If anything, the loss to the Colts, which put the Bills at 0-3 in the "it doesn’t count" part, only points up what has sort of been forgotten in all the excitement of Drew Bledsoe. This is still a very, very, very young Bills team. Young players make mistakes, and mistakes lead to losses.’

‘I know this much: Bills brass Tom Donahoe and Tom Modrak will ultimately get all the pieces in place, and sooner rather than later.’

‘Prediction: Even though the Bills are tied with the San Diego Chargers for the toughest strength of schedule, the Bills should be better than last year’s 3-13 record.’

‘The Bills and their new quarterback, Drew Bledsoe, have regressed since playing relatively well in their first preseason game against Cincinnati. They didn’t look sharp in the second preseason game against Minnesota and looked even worse last week versus Indianapolis.’

‘Before the season starts, there could be more pickups along the D-line, but the Bills’ biggest problem was cured when they got Bledsoe.’
