Bills report: Notes, quotes
--After watching the replay, RB Travis Henry now feels he scored on the fourth-and-goal dive play from the 1-yard line against Oakland last week. "I wasn't even down," he said. "I was on top and I reached the ball across the plane. One referee was like, 'Touchdown' and the other one came in and said 'No'. No whistle blew. I was in the crowd and I reached it over. I felt we should've challenged it. It was close." Coach Mike Mularkey said he didn't review the call because Henry couldn't convince him he was in.
--WR Eric Moulds on the offense: "Every player on the offense needs to pick up his game. We're just making mistakes that we shouldn't be making right now. We get things done in practice but it doesn't mean anything if we can't bring that to the field."
--CB Troy Vincent missed three days of practice last week after a death in his family. He is expected back to work on Wednesday.
--QB Drew Bledsoe has been almost as easy to sack as ex-Bill Rob Johnson, who was run out of town because of his inability to make plays under pressure. Bledsoe has been sacked 111 times in 34 games with Buffalo - an average of 3.3 per game. Johnson was sacked an average of 3.63.
--SS Lawyer Milloy would love nothing more than to play in Sunday's showdown with New England, his former team that cut him just days before the 2003 season opened, but it's not going to happen. Milloy, who broke his right forearm in the preseason and had surgery to insert a plate, is still far from getting medical clearance and it now appears it won't happen until after Halloween.
--DT Tim Anderson was active for the first time against Oakland, taking Justin Bannan's place. That's a good sign for Anderson, the team's third-round pick out of Ohio State. Anderson had a good training camp and the coaches feel he's deserving of some live repetitions. Anderson was drafted as insurance against Pat Williams leaving as a free agent next year.
--WR Bobby Shaw has been quiet through two games and Buffalo will need more production out of the smart-playing veteran to get out of its scoring slump. Shaw had no catches in the Bills 31-0 loss to New England in last season's final game.
--LB London Fletcher leads the Bills in tackles with 17, with one sack.
