Bills Not Content With First AFC East Title In 25 Years

‘But qualifying for the playoffs is no longer measured as the standard for success in Buffalo. It is, instead, but one step for a team that was one-and-done in its previous two playoff appearances following wild-card losses to Jacksonville (in January 2017) and Houston this past winter.’

Allen, Diggs among five Bills named to Pro Bowl

‘Due to the Covid-19 pandemic, there is no actual Pro Bowl game this year. Instead, there will be week-long virtual event with celebrities, NFL Legends, current players, and streamers playing as the Pro Bowl rosters on the Madden NFL 21 video game. Therefore, players on the Super Bowl teams could still take part.’

Opinion: The Big Picture: Feel good, Buffalo!

‘We’ve always sat back and watched parade-after-parade-after-parade in all these other places. I think about that little kid sometimes in Boston who shows up to all of their championship parades with his sign that says how many times his teams have won a title since he’s been born. It’s nauseating.’

Bills land five on Pro Bowl roster, most since 1998 season

‘This will mark the first career Pro Bowl appearances for Allen and Diggs – a duo who’ve capitalized against many opponents this season. Allen has exactly 4,000 passing yards this season with 1,314 of those going to Diggs.’

Daboll focused on Bills and nothing more as coaching rumors circulate

‘Both Frazier and Daboll have been candidates for head coaching jobs in the past and Daboll seems to be getting more and more rumored attention. Back in January 2020, Daboll interviewed with the Cleveland Browns and a year later, is being rumored as a possible candidate for a few vacancies.’

Buffalo pharmacist proposes testing Bills fans ahead of playoff game

‘He’s proposing to test ticket holders for COVID-19 ahead of the game. He’s a bit of an expert in the field. He’s now processing about 1,000 rapid tests at his drive-thru clinic in the Town of Tonawanda. He said he would set up a drive thru clinic in the stadium parking lot roughly four days prior to the game with the ability to test every ticket holder.’

As playoffs loom, the possible story lines abound

‘How about a Bills-Browns playoff meeting? It would match a team that hasn’t won a playoff game in 25 years (the Bills) against a team that hasn’t won one in 26. The last time Cleveland won a playoff game was in 1994 against the Patriots. Bill Belichick was the Browns’ head coach and Nick Saban the defensive coordinator. Not a bad coaching staff.’

Levy happy Bills fans get the chance to see such a great team

‘“And I am thrilled for the Buffalo Bills fins. They are the best, I’ve coached at a lot of places in my 47-year coaching career, and the Buffalo Bills fans are so deserving. And I sure hope they get it all the way finally and I’ll be cheering with them,” he added.’

Five Bills selected to the Pro Bowl

‘And there are certainly other Bills players that deserve to make this list, the biggest name is safety Jordan Poyer. This is a massive snub given the way he’s playing right now and it sounds like he’s upset and has every right to be.’

Local stores slammed with Bills fans searching for AFC gear

‘“It’s Exciting! said Shaonah Townsend, Bills fan. “There’s an atmosphere in the air that just really pumps everybody up. Cars are driving by beeping. It just revitalizes everybody during this time. It’s a lot of fun.“’

Poloncarz “disappointed” in large crowd welcoming Bills home

‘“It’s good to welcome the team back, but if somebody in that crowd was sick and they passed it on to other individuals and only increased our rates, they’re only hurting our opportunity to be able to get people in the stands,” Poloncarz said. “What would happen in Josh Allen got COVID?”’
