Josh Allen: Buffalo is ‘my type of town’

‘”That builds our confidence as we go out there, so we appreciate you guys. And you guys may not know that, but you guys are a huge key to our wins at home, because it’s a tough place to play and teams don’t want to come up here in the cold, and then they have to face the Bills Mafia in the stands, as well.”’

Bills’ Shaq Lawson says he was ‘defending myself and my team’ in fight with Jaguars’ Leonard Fournette

‘“Alright, it’s real, man, I’ll answer,” Lawson said with a smile. “At the time, how the whole situation happened, I was defending myself because he came from the sideline. So at that time, I was basically defending myself and my team, fighting for my brothers. Ain’t nobody going to let anybody in this world let a man throw a punch at you and you won’t react to it.”‘

Bills waive Schmidt (again), make Darr third different punter this season

‘The Bills had released Schmidt before the start of the season after choosing rookie Corey Bojorquez to replace him.’

Sheriff’s office seeking truck that struck deputy after Bills game

‘The truck that the sheriff’s office is seeking is a dark-colored Ford F-250 “dually” with a full hunting-related decal covering the rear window. Deputies said the dark blue or black mid-2000s truck has large, extended mirrors and the white decal had a blue letter, possibly that of a business logo.’

Everything on the table as Pegulas weigh Bills, Sabres stadium options

‘“We’ve got two venues that are in need of renovation and we needed to bring in some outside expertise to begin the evaluation,” Bruce Popko, Pegula Sports & Entertainment’s chief operating officer, said at a press conference on Tuesday. “We have expiring leases and we have, candidly, venues that need upgrading.”’

Pancho Billa is first fan named to Buffalo Fan Wall of Fame

‘”I almost feel like he’s the face of the Buffalo Bills fan,” said Therese Forton-Barnes, director of strategic planning for the nonprofit organization, which aims to develop a tourist attraction by creating a combined home for the Greater Buffalo Sports Hall of Fame, the Buffalo Broadcasters Association and the Buffalo Music Hall of Fame.’

Big wins mean big TV ratings for Bills and Sabres

‘The Bills’ 24-21 win over the Jacksonville Jaguars had a 38.0 rating on WIVB-TV (Channel 4), the local CBS affiliate. That was only two-tenths of a point higher than the Bills’ win over the Jets behind quarterback Matt Barkley the week before.’

Up next for Bills: Dolphins team that’s 1-4 in last 5 games but still in playoff picture

‘Despite going 1-4 in their last five games, the Dolphins remain very much in contention in a muddled AFC playoff picture with five games to go.’

Five things to know about Buffalo Bills punter Matt Darr

‘Between his 2015 and 2016 season with the Dolphins, Darr’s average yards per punt dropped by 3.3 yards.’

Roth: As sure as the snow blows off Lake Erie, a Bills downtown stadium is a lock

‘What the fan wants is timeless: Affordable tickets, cheap parking, cold beer, warm food, toilets that work and oh yeah, a team that wins.’

Buffalo Bills owner takes next step toward new stadium

‘The time period for the study will be about six to nine months, according to Bruce Popko, PSE’s chief operating officer, who said the stadium and arena have “fallen behind modern standards.”‘

Bills’ Josh Allen showing signs of development since injury

‘The debate raged in the lead up to the Bills vs. Jaguars game last Sunday: Should the Bills bring Allen back or hold him out to continue to watch and learn. Bills coach Sean McDermott proclaimed Allen the starter when healthy and he inserted the first round pick back in for a tough matchup against the second-ranked pass defense in the league. Allen delivered.’

Bills shuffle punters by signing Darr, releasing Schmidt

‘Darr has not played since spending the 2015 and ’16 seasons with the Miami Dolphins. He averaged 47.6 yards per punt in 2015, and was selected to the all-rookie team.’

Bills, Sabres hire firms to study stadium, arena upgrades

‘On Tuesday, Pegula Sports and Entertainment chief operating officer Bruce Popko said the study was necessary because the facilities, including the Sabres’ 23-year-old KeyBank Center, “have fallen behind modern standards.”‘

Police seek driver of vehicle that struck, injured deputy

‘The Erie County Sheriff’s Office says the deputy was directing traffic at Big Tree Road and Route 219 in Orchard Park around 4:30 p.m. Sunday when he was hit by a dark-colored Ford F-250 pickup with a full, rear window hunting-related decal.’

Bills swap out punters, sign Matt Darr and release Colton Schmidt

‘For Schmidt, it is the second time this season he has been released by the Bills. Schmidt was cut in favor of rookie Corey Bojorquez one week before the start of the season, but was brought back to the team after they had to place Bojorquez on injured reserve on October 31st. In three games this season, Schmidt had a net punting average of only 33.8 yards on 16 punts, with 4 pinned inside the 20.’

Pegula Sports and Entertainment to begin comprehensive study of venues

‘Over the coming months, CAA ICON will guide PSE through a stadium feasibility analysis to identify the needed improvements to all aspects of the fan and team experience at either a new football stadium or renovated New Era Field. According to the Pegulas, the study will equally focus on modernizing the more than 23-year-old KeyBank Center.’

Joe B: Buffalo Bills All-22 Review – Week 12 vs. Jacksonville Jaguars

‘If you were to compare Josh Allen’s day to a veteran player that had been playing all season, it might not be as impressive. However, for a rookie quarterback coming off an injury that kept him away for over a month, the statistics are quite misleading as to how genuinely effective he was for the Buffalo Bills.’

Bills superfan to be immortalized on fan wall of fame

‘”I am truly blessed to be considered for enshrinement into the Buffalo Fan Wall of Fame. To be immortalized among Buffalo’s greatest brings a new definition to be word honor,” said Castro, AKA Pancho Billa.’

Pegulas looking into next steps for Bills stadium

‘“The number one priority for this study is the fan experience,” said PSE President & CEO Kim Pegula.’

Suspected drunk driver hits Deputy after Bills game

‘Investigators say the Deputy was directing traffic at Southwestern Boulevard and Abbott Road when a truck made an improper turn at the intersection, side-swiping the Deputy. The Deputy wasn’t hurt.’

Bills DE Shaq Lawson speaks to Buffalo students: ‘Hopefully I impact somebody in some type of way’

‘”That’s a good question,” Lawson responded. “When times got hard… that’s when you have to look at yourself, look in the mirror. You either lay down, or stand up.”‘

Pegula Sports and Entertainment to start comprehensive study of Bills, Sabres, Bandits venues

‘“As both New Era Field and KeyBank Center have aged, they have fallen behind modern standards,” said Bruce Popko, PSE’s Chief Operating Officer. “Terry and Kim Pegula have invested more than $2 billion of their own money in our market, including $350 million in privately-financed venue upgrades and expansions. With both leases nearing expiration, we look forward to developing a plan and working with our public sector partners to solidify the futures of the Bills and Sabres.”’

Erie County Sheriff’s Office looking for vehicle that hit deputy at Bills game, left scene

‘The sheriff’s office is now looking for the vehicle, which is a dark blue or black Ford-250 truck from the mid-2000s with large extended mirrors and a full rear window hunting-related decal.’

Bills sign punter Matt Darr

‘Darr, 26, was last with the Miami Dolphins during the 2017 offseason, but he did not make their final 53-man roster that year.’

Stats: How success on first down has sparked the Bills offense

‘Through the team’s first nine games, the Bills ranked last in the league in total net yards on first down. Their average gain on first down (3.66 yards/play) was also at the bottom of the NFL.’

PSE to begin comprehensive study of New Era Field

‘Pegula Sports & Entertainment has hired CAA ICON to assist its efforts in determining the next steps for the Buffalo Bills stadium needs and for potential renovations of KeyBank Center, the home of the Buffalo Sabres and Buffalo Bandits. CAA ICON will conduct a privately-funded study to help identify the best options for ownership, fans and the community. The study will include direct feedback from Bills and Sabres fans.’

Bills Today: Poyer: We’ve come a long way

‘“We’ve come a long way this season,” Poyer said. “This season hasn’t gone the way we’ve wanted it to, but to come off back-to-back wins, especially after a bye week, it shows the type of team we are.”’
