Buffalo Bills ‘hopeful’ that ‘foundational piece of defense’ Matt Milano can play vs. Dolphins

‘Milano was off to the side at practice on Monday getting in some individual cardiovascular work, testing the hamstring a little bit. Because it’s a hamstring the timeline is a bit hard to predict. Bills rookie running back Devin Singletary suffered a hamstring injury in Week 2 and has missed the last three games. Slot cornerback Taron Johnson suffered same injury in Week 1 and hasn’t been back since.’

Buffalo Bills are 16.5 point favorites over Miami Dolphins: How team has fared as big favorites in the past

‘According to SportsBetting.ag, this is the biggest favorite spread for the Bills since 1993 and just the eleventh time that Buffalo has been favored by 14 points or more in team history. Of course, all of Buffalo’s previous games being favored by 14-points or more came during the days of the K-Gun offense featuring Jim Kelly, Thurman Thomas and Andre Reed and a defense that featured greats like Bruce Smith, Darryl Talley and Cornelius Bennett.’

Receiver Duke Williams revives career with Bills

‘“I had my days and my doubts, like, ‘Man, this is not going to work out,’” he added. “But at the end of the day, I overcame adversity and it made me the man who I am today. I don’t regret nothing.”’

Bills react to Zay Jones trade

‘“You know Zay got traded, he texted me words of encouragement. Still by my side, going through what he’s going through being traded, he texted me first,” wide receiver Duke Williams told News 4 on Monday.’

Bills Today: Bills preparing for Josh Rosen and Ryan Fitzpatrick this week

‘“The foundation of what they’re doing schematically is always the same, it’s not going to change drastically,” Alexander said. “They’re not that much different quarterbacks to you’ll get one guy who runs the option and one drops back, they’re very similar. Obviously, Fitz has more experience so he could probably do some more things like moving safeties and Rosen being a younger guy isn’t as polished. We’re going to look at them as what they’ve done over the first six games of the season and break them down and execute our game plan.”’

Sullivan: Bills, Sabres finally giving fans reason to buy in

‘The Bills are still a work in progress. Keep in mind, they were trailing with under five minutes to play against the Jets and Bengals, two teams that as of Sunday had yet to win a game. But they’re in far better shape than anyone could have imagined back in August.’

Week 6 was good to the Bills

‘Now, the standings are starting to look like the Bills might not have much competition if they have to grab the fifth or sixth seed.’

Sal: Vacation got me thinking…..

‘One of the more underrated but greatly important aspects of how Sean McDermott has approached coaching the Buffalo Bills this season is maintaining the long-term view, especially when it comes to injuries. Great examples are the decisions to keep running back Devin Singletary and cornerback Taron Johnson inactive the last couple weeks when both seemed to be trending towards being able to play. McDermott has made it clear through his actions that he’s playing this season as a marathon and not a sprint. Having players available in November and December is much more valuable than risking a setback by playing one game in October.’
