Game 1: New England at Buffalo

[Schobel94]

It's that time again! I am so bored and have nothing better to do than to put together the season opener brought to you by Madden 2003 and EA sports.

Welcome to the season opener of the 2003 season! It's going to be quite a game today as the New England Patriots come to town to face the Buffalo Bills in Orchard PArk, NY!

[Schobel94]

Here we go! It's a beautiful September day here at the Ralph, and both teams look ready to play

[Schobel94]

The Bills have won the coin toss and elect to recieve. Vineterri looks about ready to kickoff, and it's underway! Shaw gets under the kick and returns it to the 23 yard line.

(P.S. sorry some of the images were too big for some unknown reason so some pics like the kickoff were skipped, sorry)

[Schobel94]

The Bills offense sets up shop at the 23 yard line.

[Schobel94]

1st and 10 and the Bills work off the I formation.

[Schobel94]

Henry is given the ball on a pitchout and has room to work with.

[Schobel94]

Henry makes would be tacklers look like pop-warner pansies on his way upfield

[Schobel94]

He is finally taken down but not before he picks up the first. Solid running on Henry's part and good blocking up front.

[Schobel94]

First and 10 for the Bills at their own 33.

[Schobel94]

Here's an off tackle running play with Gash as lead blocker for Henry.

[Schobel94]

Henry explodes through the hole created by Teague and Brown.

[Schobel94]

Milloy tackles Henry after a 6 yard pickup by the third year back.

[Schobel94]

On 2nd and 4 at their own 40, the Bills work out of the I formation with one TE.

[Schobel94]

Bledsoe tosses Henry the rock. It seems the Bills want to establish a solid running game this afternoon, but saftey Rodney Harrison wraps up Henry for a 1 yard loss. (Sorry no pic, too big!!)

[Schobel94]

It's 3rd and 5 at the Bills 38. Bledose sets up in the shotgun with one back.
