Bills Need To Make An Effort To Get Spiller Involved Author : Robert D. Cobb Orchard Park, N.Y. -- The Buffalo Bills did the unthinkable, well that is besides the fact they will be missing the playoffs for the 13th straight year, they only gave C.J. Spiller eight touches the entire game, seven carries and one reception to bring his totals up to 1,047 yards rushing and 352 receiving yards. Another fun factoid is that The Bills are 2-1 this season when Spiller gets 15 carries or more in a game. It's became more so frustrating since Spiller has only had 161 carries this year, while league rushing yard leader Adrian Peterson has 289. If Spiller had 289 carries like Peterson, he'd leading the league with 1,879 yards and it'd be a nice final two games to see if either of them could break Eric Dickerson long standing rushing record of 2,105 yards. This is eerily similar to what this same team did between the years 1969-1971; they barely gave legendary halfback O.J. Simpson the ball between those three years with coaches John Rauch and Harvey Johnson at the helm. That was until they brought back Lou Saban as their Head coach in 1972. When coach Saban was brought back he basically turned everyone into blockers and specifically the offensive line was dubbed The Electric Company, because simply they turned on "The Juice". I can only hope next season if there is a new coach for the Bills, that he used Spiller to his full potential as we saw for brief moments this season, especially if he can live up to my projected stats Thanks for reading!

Tony Adamle: Doctor of Defense
THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 24, No. 3 (2002) Tony Adamle: Doctor of Defense By Bob Carroll Paul Brown “always wanted his players to better themselves, and he wanted us known for being more than just football players,” Tony Adamle told an Akron Beacon Journal reporter in 1999. In the case of Adamle, the former Cleveland Browns linebacker who passed away on October 8, 2000, at age 76, his post-football career brought him even more honor than captaining a world championship team. Tony was born May 15, 1924, in Fairmont, West Virginia, to parents who had immigrated from Slovenia. By the time he reached high school, his family had moved to Cleveland where he attended Collinwood High. From there, he moved on to Ohio State University where he first played under Brown who became the OSU coach in 1941. World War II interrupted Adamle’s college days along with those of so many others. He joined the U.S. Air Force and served in the Middle East theatre. By the time he returned, Paul Bixler had succeeded Paul Brown, who had moved on to create Cleveland’s team in the new All-America Football Conference. Adamle lettered for the Buckeyes in 1946 and played well enough that he was selected to the 1947 College All-Star Game. He started at fullback on a team that pulled off a rare 16-0 victory over the NFL’s 1946 champions, the Chicago Bears. Six other members of the starting lineup were destined to make a mark in the AAFC, including the game’s stars, quarterback George Ratterman and running back Buddy Young.

THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 18, No. 4 (1996)
THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 18, No. 4 (1996) 1948 AAFC CHAMPIONSHIP: PERFECT ENDING The Cleveland Browns completed a perfect, all-winning season with a 49-7 thrashing of the Buffalo Bills before a disappointing, but hardly disappointed, crowd of 22,981 at Municipal Stadium. The Browns thus became the first professional football team in a major league to win every game of the regular season and then continue victorious through the championship game. In both 1934 and 1942, the Chicago Bears completed undefeated, untied NFL seasons only to lose in the championship game. The rout of the Bills, who only broke even during their regular season and needed a playoff win over Baltimore to advance to the finale, was fully expected. That anticipation no doubt held down the crowd. Buffalo's porous defense was expected to be easily solved by the Browns, but the few Bills' rooters in the stands hoped that the invaders' high-powered offense might give the Clevelanders some trouble. Instead, Cleveland held the Bills to under 170 yards from scrimmage while taking advantage of numerous Buffalo mistakes. The first half was played on comparatively even terms, but Cleveland scored once in each quarter. First, Edgar Jones went three yards to a touchdown with only ten seconds left in the opening quarter. Early in the second quarter, Browns end George Young returned Rex Bumgardner's fumble 18 yards for Cleveland's second touchdown. The second half was all Browns. Barely two minutes into the session, Otto Graham passed nine yards to Edgar Jones to make the score 21-0.

Podunk Versus Gotham: the 1946 Browns-Yankees Rivalry
THE COFFIN CORNER: Vol. 16, No. 2 (1994) PODUNK VERSUS GOTHAM: THE 1946 BROWNS-YANKEES RIVALRY by Jack Ziegler In 1946 America had a new football league - the All-America Conference. In the Eastern division the New York Yankees dominated. In the West the Cleveland Browns emerged as the team to beat, though not without some stiff competition from the San Francisco 49ers and the Los Angeles Dons. A lively rivalry quickly developed between the two divisional champions due in large part to the personalities of their coaches, New York's Ray Flaherty and Cleveland's Paul Brown. The Yankees with their uniforms of silver and blue and offices on Park Avenue were the blue chip franchise of the new league and Ray Flaherty was their blue chip coach. Flaherty's roots reached deep into pro football. He had played end with Red Grange's New York Yankees in 1927-28. In 1929 Flaherty moved to Steve Owen's New York Giants, becoming a playing coach in 1933 at age 29. In 1936 Flaherty became head coach of the Boston Redskins. In 1937, Flaherty coached the Redskins (now in Washington) to a league championship, a feat he duplicated in 1942. After Navy service in World War II, Flaherty assumed control of the Yankees. The AAC's most high-profile coach felt very good about his personnel: "I have the best material I've ever had, and that goes for the fine Washington teams." The major power in the West would turn out to be the Cleveland Browns. or as Flaherty snidely referred to them, "a team from Podunk with a high school coach." At 38, only four years younger than Flaherty, Paul Brown seemed the antithesis of his opposite number.
