Bills Chief Executive Officer Russ Brandons passion for the Buffalo Bills and the Western New York region has served as his guiding compass while utilizing his excellent skills in leadership and vision to direct the franchise on a course for success since Ralph Wilson entrusted him with the responsibility in January of 2010 . Brandons abilities are highly respected not only on the local level, but certainly on a national scale and within the league as well . A great illustration of his talents lies in the honor bestowed upon him by NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell in the spring of 2011 when he appointed Brandon to the NFLs Business Ventures Committee, which is responsible for the oversight of various businesses of the league, including consumer products, sponsorship and marketing . In directing the Bills day-to-day operations as the Chief Operating Officer in 2008-09, and the addition of General Manager to his title in the latter year, Brandons reach extended from working on the Draft and free agency to spearheading an effort to improve the Bills game day experience for all fans . During the two-year span, Brandon led the organization to its only back-to-back years of 55,000-plus season ticket sales while recording the second highest total in team history in 2008 and the third highest figure in 2009, both contributing greatly to the viability of the franchise . The 2008 NFL Draft was the first with Brandon at the helm, though he was a part of the Bills Draft/ free agent formula for a number of years with his involvement in the football operations process that included spearheading the selection and signing of free agents in the post-draft hours . In that Draft the Bills selected Rookie-of-the-Year candidate CB Leodis McKelvin and WR Stevie Johnson . Brandon was instrumental as GM in 2009 in securing six current starting members on the Bills roster through the Draft and free agency . The 09 Draft class brought to Buffalo second-round selection DB Jairus Byrd, the runner-up in the AP Rookie-of-theYear voting, whose phenomenal rookie season was highlighted with his selection to the Pro Bowl and numerous all-rookie teams . The Bills Draft class also included first-round selection center/guard Eric Wood and guard Andy Levitre with the teams 2nd secondround pick . Under Brandons watchful eye, the team made key free agent acquisitions in 09, such as QB Ryan Fitzpatrick, and, in what turned out to be a key decision, extended the contract of RB Fred Jackson in May of that year . But the Bills made the biggest headlines while restoring fan excitement with the signing of free agent WR Terrell Owens, who led all Bills receivers in receptions and receiving yards while climbing into second place on the NFLs all-time receptions list with 1,006 .
Brandon previously served as the teams Executive Vice President of Business Operations in 2007-2008, overseeing the teams vision and execution of all business-related endeavors . He developed a strong base of strategic business and community partners as well as programs that have helped the team connect with its fans and partners . Also during that time, he and his staff established the second phase of the teams regionalization process by partnering a five-year deal with Rogers Communications to play a regular season game in Toronto each year along with a couple of preseason contests . From January of 1999 through January 2006, Brandon served as the teams Vice President of Business Development and Marketing . He and his staff have been credited with the development of the team as a regional franchise and forming strategic alliances with key business partners . Brandons success in the sports business field has been recognized with numerous awards and in 2001 he was the recipient of Street and Smiths Sports Business Journals Forty under 40 award . In 1999, Brandon and his staff finalized the foundation of the regionalization plan by relocating Buffalo Bills Training Camp to St . John Fisher College in Pittsford, New York . The new layout and location provided the perfect blend of fan interaction and training accommodations . In fact, many consider the Bills to be the elite model for NFL training camps, prompting Brandon to extend the partnership with the school in the Spring of 2012 to keep the team at St . John Fisher College for the foreseeable future . Brandon joined the Bills in November of 1997 as Executive Director of Business Development and Marketing after earning a World Series ring as a member of the Florida Marlins front office . He began his sports business career as a member of the Rochester Red Wings (Triple A affiliate of the Baltimore Orioles) serving in many capacities, including assistant general manager . The native of East Syracuse, New York, is also actively involved in regional initiatives . He is a member of the Advisory Board for the Department of Sports Management at Syracuse University, a member of the Board of Trustees at St . John Fisher College and serves on the boards at the Buffalo Niagara Partnership and the Buffalo Niagara Enterprise . He and his wife Amy are involved in many charitable endeavors and had the honor to serve as Co-Chairs of the Hunters Hope Gala in 2008 . Brandon was a four-year letterman in baseball and football at St . John Fisher College and graduated with a degree in communications . He was inducted into his alma maters Sports Hall of Fame in 2004 . He and Amy have three children, sons RJ and Jack, and daughter, Grace . They reside in Williamsville, N .Y .

Buddy Nix has never wavered from his goal of leading the Bills back into the playoffs and he remains just as focused in his third year of directing the team as he did when he first accepted the job . His career combination of scouting talent on the NFL level and coaching on the collegiate and high school levels serves him perfectly in his role as the Bills General Manager and the direction he has brought to the position has rejuvenated the Bills Football Team . After being named GM on December 31, 2009, Nix worked diligently towards his first major decision and 20 days later announced Chan Gailey as the teams new head coach . Though the two men had never worked previously together, their styles and approach to the game are very similar . Both believe success is accomplished by hard work, being prepared and toughness . Its more about fundamentals than being flashy and I think our team will reflect that philosophy, Nix commented at the time . Nixs approach to building the Bills back into prominence centers around the Draft and he and the team received high marks for the 2012 Draft . Nix and the personnel staff were true to their philosophy of selecting the highest player on their draft board, but the selections also uniquely fit some need areas . CB Stephon Gilmore was selected with the 10th overall pick with OT Cordy Glenn selected in the second round and speedy WR T .J . Graham in the third . In the 2011 Draft, Nix and the staff focused primarily on the needs on defense by selecting six of the nine players from that side of the ball . With the third overall pick, the Bills chose dominant DT Marcell Dareus from Alabama, who made an immediate impact up front on the defense . DBs Aaron Williams (2nd pick) and DaNorris Searcy (4th pick) saw significant playing time in the secondary while LB Kelvin Sheppard (3rd pick) has claimed the starting job at MLB . In the 2010 Draft, the first with Nix as GM, the team chose RB C .J . Spiller from Clemson with its first selection, the player that some Draft evaluators and media felt was the best overall player . Nixs ability as a keen evaluator of talent also led to the Bills adding players in free agency . The team signed the most highly coveted defensive FA in 2012 in DE Mario Williams and then added DE Mark Anderson to change the entire complexion of the Bills defensive front line . Vince Young was added to compete for the backup QB position and undrafted FA WRs David Nelson, Donald Jones and Buffalonative Naaman Roosevelt were signed in previous years and have played important roles . Nix had rejoined the franchise earlier in 2009 as the National Scout . Prior to returning to Buffalo,
he had served seven seasons with the San Diego Chargers, first as Director of Player Personnel from 2001 2002, where he oversaw both pro and college scouting, and then as Assistant General ManagerDirector of Player Personnel from 2003 2007 . San Diego finished 1-15 in the year prior to Nixs arrival and then made the playoffs four times between 2001 and 2008 while capturing four AFC West titles between 2004 and 2008 . The Chargers advanced to the AFC Championship game in 2007 . Nixs first tenure with the Bills was as a Southeast region college scout from 1993 2000, where he first worked with former Bills GM John Butler before joining San Diego . Nix has been honored many times for his collegiate career, both as a coach and a player . He was honored in 1999 with the Johnny Vaught Lifetime Achievement Award by the All-American Football Foundation, become a member of the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga Hall of Fame in 2006, a member of the Society of the Golden Key at the University of West Alabama in 2007, and a member of the Greater Chattanooga Area Sports Hall of Fame Football in 2011, honoring contribution, performance, character and integrity . From 1984 1992, Nix was the head coach at the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga . Prior to his nine seasons at UTC, Nixs collegiate career included assistant positions at Louisiana State University (1981 1983), Auburn (1976 1980), Southern Mississippi (1972 1975), Livingston University (1970 1971) and Carson Newman (1969) . In 1971, Livingston won the Division II National Championship while Nix was the Defensive Coordinator . Nixs coaching career began in 1961 as a graduate assistant at the University of Alabama, the same year the Crimson Tide finished 11-0 and defeated Arkansas in the Sugar Bowl en route to a National Championship . He later coached positions at Anniston (1962 1964) and Eufaula (1964 1967) High Schools in Alabama and Jonesboro High School (1967 1969) in Georgia . Nix was raised in Talladega, AL and attended Talladega High before becoming a standout linebacker and fullback at Livingston University (the Universitys name has since been changed to West Alabama University) . He was inducted into Livingstons Hall of Fame in 1983 . Buddy and his wife, Diann, have three children, Steve (wife Sherry), Stan (wife Holi), and Stacey (husband Allen) . They also have six grandchildren, Dakota, Tyler, Ana, Hope, Tucker and Sawyer .

The Buffalo Bills continued to improve in 2011 under second year Head Coach Chan Gailey and steadily worked towards their goal of making the playoffs with victories that were described by some as the most exciting and impressive wins in the past 15 years . Gailey became the 15th head coach in Bills history when he was named to the position on January 19th, 2010 . Now in his 18th season in the NFL coaching ranks, Gailey is recognized leaguewide for his successful offenses, though he has coached all three phases of the game during his vast coaching career . Gailey has over three decades of coaching experience, including head coaching stints in college, World League and the NFL . Gailey served as head coach of the Dallas Cowboys from 199899, leading the Cowboys to playoff berths in each season and compiling an 18-14 regular season record . Gailey also has four stints as offensive coordinator in the NFL with Denver (1989-90), Pittsburgh (1996-97), Miami (2000-01) and Kansas City (2008) . With the Cowboys in 1998, Gailey became the first coach in NFC Eastern Division history to lead his team to a perfect 8-0 record in division play and a 10-6 overall record . Also in 1998, his Dallas squad ranked in the NFLs top 10 in total offense (eighth 340 .6 ypg), rushing (eighth 125 .9 ypg), scoring (ninth- 23 .8 ppg) and passing (ninth 214 .8 ypg) . He followed that with an 8-8 campaign in 1999 and his second consecutive playoff appearance . In his two seasons as the Cowboys head coach, Dallas scored 37 rushing touchdowns, the fourthhighest total in the NFL over the two year timeframe . Gaileys resume speaks for itself, he has spent 11 of his previous 17 NFL seasons as either a head coach or offensive coordinator . During those 11 seasons, his teams have made the playoffs seven times and boasted a 1,000-yard rusher on seven different occasions . In total, he has made playoff appearances in 11 of his 17 seasons in NFL coaching . His resume also boasts four Super Bowl berths, including one with Pittsburgh (XXX) and three with Denver (XXI, XXII and XXIV) .
Gailey served as the head coach at Georgia Tech from 2002-07, becoming the first coach in school history to lead the Yellow Jackets to bowl appearance in his first six seasons . He compiled a 44-33 overall record and his squad averaged 199 .3 rushing ypg, which led the Atlantic Coast Conference in 2007 and finished third in the conference in total offense with 384 .9 ypg that season . In 2006, the Yellow Jackets featured the 2006 Biletnikoff Award winner and number two overall draft pick in the 2007 NFL Draft in WR Calvin Johnson (Detroit) . The ACC Player of the Year caught 78 passes for a single-season record 1,202 yards with 15 touchdown receptions, tying for second-most in the country . A total of 46 Yellow Jackets coached by Gailey in his six seasons at Georgia Tech were either selected in the NFLs annual Draft Selection or were signed to a free-agent contract with an NFL team . In 2008, Gailey returned to the NFL as the offensive coordinator with the Kansas City Chiefs . The Chiefs had a duo of 1,000-yard receivers - TE Tony Gonzalez and WR Dwayne Bowe - marking the third time in team history . His coaching experience is so wide-ranging that it includes stints coaching defense and special teams, in addition to his success on the offensive side of the ball . In fact, he owns the distinction of serving as both a head coach and defensive coordinator on the collegiate level, as well as stints as a head coach and offensive coordinator in the NFL ranks . Gailey began his NFL career as an assistant with the Denver Broncos from 1985-90 under head coach Dan Reeves . He served as offensive coordinator/wide receivers coach (1989-90), quarterbacks/wide receivers coach (1988), tight ends/special teams coach (1986-87) and defensive assistant/special teams coach (1985) . During his six years in Denver, the Broncos developed into one of the leagues most potent passing attacks centering around Hall of Fame signal-caller John Elway . With Gailey as the teams offensive coordinator/wide receivers coach in 1989, the Broncos advanced to Super Bowl XXIV .

>>> game-By-game -- week 3 <<< September 25, 2011 Ralph Wilson Stadium 68,174
The Buffalo Bills played their second consecutive game at home and the result was a 34-31 comeback win against the New England Patriots in front of a crowd of 68,174 at Ralph Wilson Stadium in Orchard Park, New York . This was the first time the Bills have beaten the Patriots since 2003 when they beat them 31-0 in their home opener . Just like last week the Bills had to come back from being down early and make it yet another thrilling game for the home town fans . QB Tom Brady started off just where he left off last week . He marched right down the field to give the Patriots the early 7-0 lead . He and WR Wes Welker made it look easy as they hooked up all day long . Welker ended the day with 217 yards and two touchdowns . Another favorite receiver of Brady was TE Rob Gronkowski, who grew up in Williamsville, NY, a suburb of Buffalo . Gronkowski had another 100-yard receiving day and added two more touchdowns for the season . Other than Welker and Gronkowski, the Bills were able to keep the Patriots under control and keep them off the field just long enough . Throughout the first half it was all Patriots . They quickly went up 21-0 with six minutes left in the second quarter, but just like last week the Bills kept their heads up and climbed right back in it . The Buffalo Bills, for the second straight week, came back in the second half to win the game . The first drive of the second half for the Bills was a quick three and out, and was a failed attempt at trying to get the momentum back . On Tom Bradys first pass of the second half he threw an interception to CB Leodis McKelvin . This set up a three yard touchdown pass to wide open TE Scott Chandler . This cut the lead down to just four points . The next two Patriots drives, the Bills were able to hold them to just three points . Trying to get their big lead back, Brady threw short to Gronkowski and S George Wilson was able to tip it to himself and take the interception . This was the third interception that led to points . RB Fred Jackson ran up the middle for a one yard touchdown to tie the game 24-24 . Just a mere 24 seconds later, Bills DB Drayton Florence intercepted Brady in New England territory and ran it back for a 27-yard touchdown return . This touchdown gave the Bills the lasting momentum that would indeed favor them . With 3:25 left on the clock the game was tied 31-31 . The Bills were able to drive down the field on what looked like to be a 39 touchdown run by Fred Jackson . The play was reviewed and ruled that he was down at the one yard line . QB Ryan Fitzpatrick and the rest of the offense were able to kneel the ball down and run the clock down to three seconds . K Rian Lindell kicked the winning field goal as time expired to beat the New England Patriots and take sole possession of first place in the AFC East .

The Buffalo Bills played their second game away from Orchard Park and it ended up becoming their first loss of the 2011 season . The Cincinnati Bengals came away with a 23-20 in front of their home crowd of 41,142 at Paul Brown Stadium . Defense was the name of the game and favored Cincinnati in the end . For the first time this year, the Bills started the game with the ball and were hoping to jump out to an early lead, unlike the past two weeks . As of late, the Bills offense has not been able to start quick . He finished the day with 298 yards on 18 completions and ran for one touchdown . The Bengals got the 3-0 lead early but it was quickly responded with a K Rian Lindell kick to tie it up 3-3 . The Bills secondary also responded with two 2nd quarter interceptions, and one returned for a TD . The ball bounced off of a Bengals receivers legs right into the arms of Bryan Scott . He recorded his first touchdown of his career on a 43 yard INT return . The Bills run game has been the big story of the season so far . RB Fred Jackson has been unstoppable and has been running with purpose . The Bengals were able to hold Jackson to just 66 yards and one touchdown, which gave Buffalo a 17-3 lead at the half . The other Bills RB C .J . Spiller was used more as a wide out than in the backfield . When he was called for a play he came through and made some crucial runs . He finished the game with 12 yards rushing and 9 receiving yards . The Cincinnati defense was ranked third in the NFL before this game and they showed it by slowing down the NFLs third rank offense in the Buffalo Bills . Coming out for the second half, the momentum quickly swung to the side of the Bengals, which started their second half comeback . QB Ryan Fitzpatrick didnt have the kind of day in the air that he has had the first three weeks . Fitzpatrick finished the day with 199 yards on 20 completions and threw no touchdowns for the first time this season . Fitzpatrick saw a lot of pressure for the first time this season . There was no late game comeback in store for the Bills this game, but instead for the Bengals . The Bengals scored a late fourth quarter touchdown on Daltons first career rushing touchdown that tied up the score . The Bills had a chance to march down the field for the go ahead score but a questionable incompletion call against WR Stevie Johnson made the Bills punt the ball to the Bengals with 1:58 left . The Bengals kicked the winning field goal as time expired .

>>> game-By-game -- week 6 <<< October 16, 2011 Metlife Stadium 79,243
The Buffalo Bills lost their second game of the season by a score of 24-27 . It was their second consecutive game against a team from the NFC East . They played in front of a full house of 79,243 at Metlife Stadium . They now go into the bye week with a 4-2 record and will face their third NFC East team, Washington, when they return in week eight . The Bills offense got off to a fast start and was able to create big plays . With the Giants getting a quick 7-0 lead, Buffalo quickly cut right into that . On the Bills first play of their second drive, RB Fred Jackson ran right up the middle for an 80 yard touchdown . He weaved his way through the defense and scored his sixth touchdown of the season . He also had his fourth 100-yard rushing performance on the season and added another 47 yards receiving . WR Naaman Roosevelt also let his name be heard with a 60 yard touchdown catch and run to get the Bills up 14-7 . It was his first career touchdown and a career long reception . He threw two interceptions and was sacked a season high three times . Fitzpatrick did throw for two touchdowns and completed 21 passes for 244 yards . The Bills defense gave up another 400 yard game to their opponent . RB A . Bradshaw had three rushing touchdowns and added 104 yards on the ground and another 26 yards receiving . WR Hakeem Nicks had a team high 96 yards on four receptions . TE Jake Ballard had one of his best games of the season with 81 yards and an average of 16 .2 yards a catch . QB Eli Manning did not throw a touchdown pass but more importantly he didnt throw an interception against a very dangerous take-a-way team . Manning completed the day with 21 completions for 292 yards . Both the Bills and the Giants go into their Bye week . The Bills had many key players out with injuries for this game; NT Kyle Williams, LB Shawne Merriman, LB Chris Kelsay, T Demetrius Bell and WR Donald Jones . Also, rookie T Chris Hairston left the game with an ankle injury which leaves the offensive line very thin . This is a good time for the Bye week as the Bills will need to bounce back against the Redskins to avoid their first two game losing streak of the season .

owner
The impact Ralph Wilson, Jr . has had on professional football culminated in 2009 with his induction into the Pro Football Hall of Fame . For starters, he is the only original AFL owner to keep his team in its originating city . The role he played in the AFL-NFL merger, his presence on nearly every NFL committee and his passion for the game as one who has always had the leagues best interests at heart before his own team has led many to refer to him as the NFLs voice of reason .
Under his direction as owner, the Bills won two AFL Championships in 1964 and 1965 and were the only AFL team to make the postseason in four consecutive years (1963-66) . Later, his Bills would become the only team ever to win four consecutive AFC championships (1990-93) and appear in four straight Super Bowls . He has been honored with numerous awards, including the Pete Rozelle Award from the Touchdown Club in New Orleans, the NFL Alumnis Order of the Leather Helmet and the Timmie Award from the Touchdown Club of Washington D .C . In 2008, Mr . Wilson received the Maxwell Football Clubs Francis J . (Reds) Bagnell Award for Contributions to the Game of Football and the inaugural Lamar Hunt Award for Professional Football at the 101 Awards in Kansas City . At the turn of the century, The Buffalo News named Ralph Wilson, Jr . as the Top Sports Figure of the region in the past millennium .

follow the powerful trio of blockers often untouched into the end zone .

Following the 1946 season, in an effort to generate more fan interest and distinguish the football team from the citys minor league baseball and hockey teams, which also bore the name Bisons, the team ran a contest to select a new name . Over 4,500 entries were submitted, and the Bills won out over Bullets, Nickels and Blue Devils . Several contestants suggested the winning name, but James F . Dyson was named the winner of the $500 prize based on his essay comparing the team to a band of Buffalo Bills . He wrote that, while the legendary Indian Scout William Buffalo Bill Cody helped trailblaze the American Frontier, the football team (owned by the president of Frontier Oil) was opening a new frontier in Buffalo sports .
