White’s injury complicates finish for Bills

‘With Buffalo having already lost to the Titans and trailing them by two games including the punitive head-to-head loss, you can bet the Bills coaches and players will be rooting hard for the Patriots.’

Upon Further Review: Bills can look ahead to Patriots, but what AFC games should fans monitor?

‘Hyde and his teammates can wear out the back button on their TVs keeping tabs on a couple of big games in the AFC. Thursday’s win elevated the Bills back into first place in the AFC East with the same 7-4 record as New England (Buffalo owns the tiebreaker with a better divisional record), but the Patriots can retake a half-game lead with a win against the visiting Tennessee Titans, who lead the conference with an 8-3 record, but are coming off a horrid home loss to the lowly Houston Texans.’

What we learned from snap counts in Bills’ Week 12 win vs. Saints, game ball and more

‘Give special teams coordinator Heath Farwell a nod here, too. Kicker Tyler Bass has a big leg and probably could have kicked off for touchbacks close to every time being in a dome, but the Bills saw something that made them think they could kick short of the goal line and cover it before the returner reached the 25-yard line – the spot the ball goes after a touchback.’

Bills fans, media, players react to Tre’Davious White’s season ending ACL tear

‘The injury to Buffalo’s star cornerback occurred in the second quarter of last night’s matchup against the New Orleans Saints. White was in coverage across from Saints WR Marquez Callaway when his leg buckled. White immediately knew something was wrong and eventually fell to the turf. Although no official news was given on Thanksgiving night following Buffalo’s 31-6 win, White’s reaction coming off the field told fans all they needed to know at the time.’

John Murphy still going strong thanks to unbending connection with fans

‘After starting his career at WLVL radio in Lockport, Murphy got a job at WBEN. In 1984, Stan Barron was diagnosed with cancer and Murphy was thrust into the color analyst role for Bills games. Despite being a mainstay on Bills broadcasts — including succeeding Miller on play-by-play in 2003 — Murphy has never called a Super Bowl.’

White’s Season-Ending ACL Injury A Major Worry For Bills

‘The Bills are already thin at cornerback behind White. Many felt he was their most indispensable player after quarterback Josh Allen. Buffalo’s defense leads the NFL in yards per game and yards per play. But the pass defense, perhaps the best in the game, will suffer greatly from his absence.’

Buffalo Bills CB Tre’Davious White has torn ACL, out remainder of season

‘The injury happened in the second quarter of the team’s 31-6 win over the Saints. White was able to walk off the field on his own with a limp, but eventually was ruled out of the game. Dane Jackson replaced him and will be expected to do so going forward. White, a Shreveport native and former LSU player, was visibly emotional coming off the field.’

Bills CB Tre’Davious White has torn ACL, will miss remainder of the season

‘White, who signed a four-year contract extension in 2020, is the team’s top cornerback. Dane Jackson will likely be inserted into the starting lineup in his place. The second-year cornerback was a seventh-round draft pick in 2020 and has shown flashes, but has not needed to contribute on a regular basis.’
