Bills | Assured Ryan Fitzpatrick his job is safe

Wed, 16 May 2012 08:28:03 -0700

Updating a previous item, Buffalo Bills general manager Buddy Nix made it clear to QB Ryan Fitzpatrick his role as starting quarterback was secure before the team signed QB Vince Young. "Buddy Nix has been a guy that has been very fair to all his player, he's been a guy who's been trying to create a competitive atmosphere," Fitzpatrick said Wednesday, May 16. "Buddy caught me in the hallway one day and said, 'We're looking to create some competition for the number two spot at quarterback, we are bringing in Vince Young. We made him an offer. We'll see if he comes. But just to let you know, obviously, you are our guy and we are just trying to get better at every position.' And when people are upfront and honest with you and telling you what is going on, then it makes everything go much smoother."

Bills | Used five defensive backs frequently

Sun, 12 Feb 2012 22:47:13 -0800

Buffalo Bills general manager Buddy Nix said the team was in a nickel defense, with five defensive backs, on 47 percent of their plays in 2011. "I watched (the Houston Texans), and defensive coordinator Wade Phillips is probably the granddaddy of the 3-4 right now, and at least 50 percent of the time they had four down-linemen," Nix said. "So I'm not so sure that it matters."
