'Tolbert is right about all of it. The Panthers are very good, and the Bills have to be better on offense. Unfortunately, it doesn't look the latter is going to happen until the passing game elevates from a high school level.'

'You'll notice that the Cowboys ($4.8 billion) are nearly worth more than the Bengals, Lions and Bills combined ($5.1 billion).'

'Well, we all do. The quarterback, myself, all parts of this football team need to do a better job. Really you say, ‘Hey, regardless of the outcome, we’ve got to continue to get better’ and that’s true. That’s what you do in the process of developing as a football team. All parts of us need to improve.'

'"Full confidence in Tyrod Taylor. Played well in game one, and we have to get better going forward as a team."'

'"Our game plan is going to be similar every game of the year. Wouldn't say game plan was ultra-conservative, we just didn't execute."'

'The Bills ended the half with six yards passing. Six. Yards. Passing. In the NFL. I mean what else can you say but woof?'

'This is good and bad news. The good first. The team's value actually went up from last year, but the bad news because we're the least valuable team in the league.'

'“Some long drives and then we’d stop them. Instead of 3-and-out and then punt and the field position shifts,” linebacker Lorenzo Alexander said following the loss. “Then, turnovers. We had a couple of balls in our hands. If you hold onto those you give your offense a short field.”'

'When pressed a second time on the possibility of changing quarterbacks, the head coach fired back with, “We look at every position. I’ve said that before. It’s never just one guy, that’s what you have to understand. There’s 11 guys on the field and there are 46 guys dressed. We can all do our part and do a better job and that’s what I expect going forward.”'

'They’re hosting their annual blood drive Tuesday at New Era Field from 11 a.m. until 7 p.m.'

'The Bills are a below-average offensive team that relies too much on running the football – particularly against top defenses. The strategy by opponents is pretty basic: stop LeSean McCoy on the ground and force Buffalo to throw.'

'“This is about us moving forward as an organization as a football team to get better and better and better,” he said. “That’s every position. What I said earlier I meant. We have to do that. We have to be honest with ourselves with what we’re getting and put ourselves in the best position to win games.”'

'Taylor’s final stat line was 17 for 25 passing, totaling 125-yards. A good chunk of those yards came on the team’s final possession. LeSean McCoy couldn’t reenact his Week One performance; he carried the ball 12 times for nine-yards.'

'Carolina’s sacks of Bills QB Tyrod Taylor were recorded by defensive end Mario Addison, his first of the campaign and 37-year-old end Julius Peppers, who got two and now has 2 ½ on the season. “I was the beneficiary today, but we all did a great job and we all controlled our rush lanes,” he said.'
