The Bills lost last night in a heart-breaker to the Patriots Monday night 24-25 in Foxboro.

“Fast” Fred Jackson ended 2008 with a bang, even though the Bills themselves ended with a bust.

Now That’s a No-Huddle
Now That’s a No-Huddle on Friday, September 11th, 2009

I hope that Dick Jauron, Trent Edwards, and the rest of the Bills offense watched the Pittsburgh Steelers last night as they beat the Tennessee Titans in overtime.
Ben Roethlisberger ran the no-huddle to perfection late in the 4th quarter to get the Steelers, who trailed at that point 10-7, into field-goal range. By spreading the [...]

Van Pelt Grabs the Reigns on Tuesday, September 8th, 2009

The parting shouts of Turk Schonert were followed by a whisper that Alex Van Pelt, QB Coach and former Bills Quarterback, would be calling the shots. Those whispers have been confirmed.
Schonert, who blasted Jauron in the media saying “He wants a ‘Pop Warner’ offense,” and “limited me in formations, and limited me in plays,” was [...]
