Our offense isn't good enough. We're not good enough on that side of the ball. And it's not just Drew Bledsoe. We've got to get better on the line. We've got to get more consistent. We've got to get more plays from our playmakers. |
Our team was good, and they had good years and cashed in on it. I don't think it was a case of the Steelers being cheap. We had a lot of good players on those teams at the time and just couldn't keep them all. We also weren't as aggressive back then as they are now. |
Some have durability issues. Others haven't produced for more than one season. They're kind of all clumped together and no one has really separated himself. |
That's a pretty good roster for an expansion team, |
There are six or seven backs who could fall anywhere from late in the first to late in the second, |
There's something about the character of this team that when their backs are up against the wall, they respond. |
They're welcome to come to our place next year, we'll invite them right now. We're looking for somebody that wants to come to Buffalo and enjoy our fans. |
We didn't look at going to J.P. as a step back, we looked at it as a step forward. We felt that we probably went as far as we could go with Drew, and that's not acceptable. We want to go further. |

We want to go further. |
We want to keep all our young players, and were going to continue to try to do that. But the two deals aren't related at all. |
We will offer a comment when Willis has been cleared by our doctors for practice. |
We'll see. Until we start to talk, you just don't know how it's going to go. |
We're hopeful that in the next week or two that we can get him back on the practice field. |
While we are very proud of the progress made by the Bills organization over the last few seasons, we also recognize the fact that this is a bottom-line business and our record has not been good enough. I take full responsibility for that. |
