  • Bills Rely on Special Ops
    Bills Rely On Special Ops Article from: The Buffalo News: Sport Article date: October 26, 2008 Acticle by: Mark Gaughan The Bills were about to face San Diego's No. 1-ranked kickoff return unit, and special teams coach Bobby April wanted to use the words of World War II Gen. George S. Patton to drive home a message. "It wasn't the main speech at the start of the movie," said Bills defensive end Ryan Denney. "It was a scene after one of the first battles at some pass, and the Americans had failed, and the troops were wiped out. That's when Patton came in and started instilling discipline, and they started focusing on all the details." The message: The Bills would have to take care of every little assignment against the Chargers. The result: Darren Sproles averaged just 17 yards on four returns, and the Bills controlled the field position. Movie clips are just one of the creative ways April motivates his players, and the Bills' special teams have been an inspired bunch again this season. Solid special teams have helped the Bills to a 5-1 start. The Bills hope special teams can set a winning tone again today when they face the Miami Dolphins. Miami has struggled in kickoff coverage and punt coverage, ranking tied for 31st and 30th, respectively, in those categories. The Bills would love to repeat last year's special teams success in Miami, when a 40-yard punt return by Roscoe Parrish set up Buffalo's winning score. Uncommon esprit de corps has been a hallmark of April's tenure as Bills special teams chief the past five years.

  • Seminoles in the Nfl Draft
    137 PRO FOOTBALL HALL OF FAME All-time Florida State gridiron greats Walter Jones and Derrick Brooks are used to making history. The longtime NFL stars added an achievement that will without a doubt move to the top of their accolade-filled biographies when they were inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame inAugust, 2014. Jones and Brooks became the first pair of first-ballot Hall of Famers from the same class who attended the same college in over 40 years. The pair’s journey together started 20 years ago. Just as Brooks was wrapping up his All-America career at Florida State in 1994, Jones was joining the Seminoles out of Holmes Community College (Miss.) for the 1995 season. DERRICK BROOKS Linebacker 1991-94 2014 Pro Football Hall of Fame WALTER JONES Offensive Tackle 1995-96 2014 Pro Football Hall of Fame 138 PRO FOOTBALL HALL OF FAME They never played on the same team at Florida State, but Jones distinctly remembers how excited he was to follow in the footsteps of the star linebacker whom he called the face of the Seminoles’ program. Jones and Brooks were the best at what they did for over a decade in the NFL. Brooks went to 11 Pro Bowls and never missed a game in 14 seasons (all with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers), while Jones became the NFL’s premier left tackle, going to nine Pro Bowls over 12 seasons with the Seattle Seahawks. Both retired in 2008, and, six years later, Jones and Brooks were teammates for the first time as first-ballot Hall of Famers.

  • WHO DO YOU THINK YOU ARE? BJORN NITTMO? Kicker Bjorn Nittmo Chased His NFL Dream for More Than a Decade, Including a Stop in Training Camp with the Buffalo Bills
    WHO DO YOU THINK YOU ARE? BJORN NITTMO? Kicker Bjorn Nittmo chased his NFL dream for more than a decade, including a stop in training camp with the Buffalo Bills. He became a recurring character on 'Late Night with David Letterman.' A head injury left Nittmo so shattered that he walked out on his wife and four children. Years later, he continues to drop in, unannounced and unkempt, before taking off again. His estranged family wants him to get help before it's too late. By Tim Graham / News Sports Reporter Illustration by Daniel Zakroczemski / Buffalo News Published Sept. 1, 2016 Bjorn Nittmo is somewhere out there, presumably in the Arizona mountains, maybe installing home-satellite systems but almost certainly running from himself. Eleven years ago he stopped coming home to his wife and four children. The youngest was 6 months old. He had lost part of his memory and still complains about the constant howling in his head from a concussive whomp. He has filed for bankruptcy and faced at least six civil judgments or liens. At some point he began using a different name. There might be a sinister reason to take on an alias, or perhaps he simply grew tired of people asking if he was that Bjorn Nittmo. Yes, he’s the same guy David Letterman introduced in 1989 as “the only Bjorn Nittmo in the New Jersey phonebook.” In actuality he’s the only Bjorn Nittmo in the world, though he is more peculiar than even that. Nittmo was the left-footed, southern-drawled, Swedish placekicker the media treated like a geegaw from a Cracker Barrel store.
