Shaq Lawson making his case for contract extension

‘“He was like, ‘I don’t remember you since college,’ ” Lawson said in the winning locker room about what set him off. “I said, ‘I bet you I’ll show you better than I can tell you.’ That’s what I did, man. That motivation when he said it the first couple plays I was in sparked me up.”’

Josh Allen ranks second in NFL at converting third downs via the run

‘“Obviously we knew he was that good of a scrambler and runner,” Denver coach Vic Fangio said. “That was really our biggest problem in the first half. That’s what led to their two field goals, and he’s a problem. He’s good at it. We had our chances, and we didn’t get him down. And then when we started adding some people to the rush to try and help that, they made us pay with that one touchdown pass going toward the tunnel.”’

Former Bills coach Hank Bullough dies at age 85

‘Many regard the Bulloughs as the first family of football at Michigan State. Hank, his sons Shane and Chuck, and three grandsons, Max, Riley and Byron all played there as linebackers. Chuck Bullough, an All-Western New York selection as a fullback and linebacker at Orchard Park High, is a defensive ends coach on Mark Dantonio’s Michigan State staff.’

Lucky Bills fan from Rochester pounces on game ball Josh Allen threw into stands

‘“People were coming up the whole game asking if I’d sell it and I was like ‘No way,’ ‘’ said Drumm, who handed the ball to a male friend, Josh Pfluke, for safe keeping. “Honestly, I was hiding the ball the whole time because people were trying to steal it. I don’t want money, I want the ball. I’m getting a case for it. I have a whole bunch of jerseys at home, but this is special. I just think it’s awesome. I love Josh Allen. I liked him in the draft and didn’t think we’d get him. But I think he’s been great despite what other people think. I like the guy a lot.’’’

Bills’ rookies making big impact

‘Just in the past two games, rookie tight end Dawson Knox (third round) caught his second touchdown of the season in the Bills’ win over Miami in Week 11, while rookie defensive tackle Ed Oliver (first round) picked up his second sack, and rookie offensive lineman Cody Ford (second round), rookie running back Devin Singletary (third round) and Oliver all had strong performances in the team’s Week 12 victory over Denver. In the win over the Broncos, Ford was matched up with Super Bowl 50 MVP Von Miller and held him to a fairly quiet performance, while Devin Singletary recorded his first career 100-yard rushing game and Oliver picked up another sack.’

Pegula Proud Of 8-3 Bills, But Still `A Long Way To Go’

‘From a longer-term view, Pegula’s comment echoes refrains often repeated by McDermott and Beane. The two arrived in Buffalo in 2017 with a singular vision of patiently and methodically rebuilding a franchise that had lost its way during a 17-year playoff drought, at the time was the longest active streak in North America’s four major professional sports.’

Siran Neal clears concussion protocol

‘Neal was listed as a full participant on Monday’s injury report, which was only an estimation since the team only held a walk-through. Tackle Ty Nsekhe was still out with an ankle injury, as was wide receiver Robert Foster, who suffered a hamstring injury Sunday. Center Mitch Morse, who left the game with a finger injury, was listed as a limited participant.’

Micah Hyde: When you play in Dallas, it feels like primetime

‘”It’s hard to play on Thursday night. Obviously fans love them, NFL on a Thursday, primetime game. But it’s hard to get your body right. I don’t start feeling good until Friday. So, to get ready for Thursday is pretty remarkable. Just have to stay at the complex a little longer.”‘
