'“So all night long they’re just telling me how they’re going to wax us,” Maguire said. “I went back to our guys and just nonchalantly went around the locker room and said, ‘Jeez, they’re going to kill us, that’s what they’ve been telling me. You should have heard them.’ Our guys were just absolutely nuts, fired up for that game.”'

'Still, the Bills’ mostly non-existent pass rush has got to be able to find a way to at least cause Moore to feel uncomfortable in the pocket. If he’s allowed the same sort of time to sit back and throw that most opposing quarterbacks have enjoyed this season, this could very well be another long day for Ryan and his much-maligned scheme.'

'Keep in mind, a large portion of that total is from scrambling, not designed run plays, so to say the Bills have built a dominant ground attack is a bit of a stretch. '

'And wasn't it interesting that former Bills great Darryl Talley, who was one of the leaders of that 1989 team, backed up that theory when he told the Buffalo News recently that his observations from afar of the 2015 Bills are that, "Everybody's doing their own thing. From what I see, this group of guys, they go out as individuals. They don't have a togetherness."'

'The best thing for Dallas would be to play hard and lose to keep a good draft spot, so of course they will probably manage a win. Say 24-20, Dallas.'

'Hoyt, a Castile native, will sing the national anthem as the game commences at 1 p.m. She’s not 100 percent sure her performance will be televised, but if she appears, it will be on Fox.'

'Buffalo’s defense has nothing to lose and with a nicked up secondary it would serve the unit well to be aggressive with pressure up front. Granted Dallas boasts one of the best offensive lines in football, but the Cowboys rank last in the league in passer rating in blitz situations with a rating of just over 61.'
