McDermott: ‘You see the skill’ of Trevor Lawrence

‘“You can see the skill. He can make every throw,” McDermott said during his weekly Friday appearance on the “Extra Point Show” with Sal Capaccio and “Sneaky Joe” DiBiase. “I’m sure he’s going to have a great career, and he’s off to a great start.”’

Erie County Legislature holding 3 public hearings next month to discuss location of new Buffalo Bills stadium

‘That hearing will include a presentation from Ben Siegel who is leading the Bills in Buffalo group. They have prepared studies on site location, parking, and other factors to make their case that the stadium should be located near the Cobblestone District between South Park and the 190 Expressway. They also came up with some preliminary drawings to show what a stadium at that location might look like.’

Bills kicker Tyler Bass named AFC Special Teams Player of the Month

‘“Yeah, it’s an incredible achievement. I’m super humbled, I’m honored,” Bass said Thursday. “But for me, I look at it as more of team award, especially for Reid (Ferguson) and (punter) Matt (Haack), my holder and long snapper. ‘Cause without them, we wouldn’t have even had a chance to be that.”’

How we see it: News sports writers predict how Bills fare vs. Jaguars

Another Voice: Transparency’s needed during stadium negotiations

‘I struggle to ascertain how releasing the Pegula study to the public would “impair the ability to obtain a contract.” If other companies were competing with the Pegulas for the right to build a new stadium it would make sense to withhold the study from their competitors and the public. Without competitors, there is not a valid reason for keeping the Pegula study secret.’

Erik Brady: Mark Maddox on recovery in Comeback Game, ‘You’ve got to go get this’

‘“There is not another stadium in the NFL that has the atmosphere that Rich Stadium does,” Maddox says. “That’s what I still call it, anyway. Maybe Green Bay comes close. But the atmosphere in Rich Stadium is something else. The support that the people give is ridiculous. I’m in Arizona, and I don’t see that at Cardinals games. They get 60,000 people there, and 20,000 are in the jerseys of the other team.”’
