Two Bills Drive

‘The Buffalo Bills usually begin training camp at the end of July, so this is a good sign that the usual start date should be unaffected by the coronavirus pandemic. The Bills are technically the only professional football team that calls New York home – the Giants and Jets are both based in New Jersey. But baseball teams like the Yankees and Mets will likely be able to get their training going in anticipation for a season.’

‘No other AFC team came close to making the playoffs 97% of the time, but the Bills found themselves third on the list. According to SportsLine, the Bills made the playoffs 67.7% of the time in their simulations. In simpler terms, the Bills made the playoffs 6,770 times in SportsLine’s 10,000 simulations.’

‘“But if you’re talking about just playing the run, I feel like I can play the run at any position. I played the six (technique), I played the five (technique), I’ve played the three (and) I’ve played nose,” he said. “But (on) first, second down I like playing end. I like setting the edge. If I do have a double team between the tackle and the tight end, and it’s a pass situation on third down, I like kicking inside.”’

‘Buffalo wants players who come in and play angry for being overlooked at some point in their careers. Based on the draft alone, Epenesa, once viewed as a top-15 prospect, Moss and Davis should all come in with a “chip” based on where they fell in the draft.’

‘Frazier pats Sean McDermott, who looks absolutely steamed about the strip sacks years later, and simply says, “Good memory?” He then looks around and says, “That resonate with anybody in this room?”’

‘“It’s amazing how many good receivers there are in this thing,” Beane said. “I like Davis. I hope he doesn’t run too fast, because he plays faster — you know what I mean? Just be 4.58 or something, he’ll be fine.”’

‘“When I came back as a senior, that was part of it. I just wanted to mature on and off the field. Become a better player, better person.”’

‘”My respect for Sean McDermott is well-documented. He received my AP vote for Coach of the Year last season. The Bills’ current culture of winning and accountability is excellent. And McDermott’s stamp is all over this great defense. Of course, most questions with this organization revolve around the other side of the ball — and namely, the quarterback. But don’t count me among the doubters.’

‘“Josh Allen has superstar qualities,” Simms told the NY Post. “I think if you’re watching the Bills and watching the last two years, yeah it’s a little raw and needs a little polish, but man he can make a lot of big-time plays and do things most quarterbacks in the game can’t do. He puts a lot of pressure on a defense. To me, that’s where he’s special. The stats aren’t really going to tell the greatness of Josh Allen. He really makes you defend the whole field.’

‘The good news for Bills fans is that Brown will be working out with Allen very soon. The Bills QB told One Bills Live last week that he planned to fly to Florida this week to workout with Brown and new wide receiver Stefon Diggs.’
