Time to assess Bills’ draft picks along both lines

‘The 2019 lottery might have been Beane’s worst in the early rounds. The Bills constantly praise defensive tackle Ed Oliver, but any pro football observer with functioning eyes can see that he’s been inconsistent three years in. And, second-round offensive guard/tackle Cody Ford ranks as one of the team’s most ill-advised high draft picks in franchise history. Third-rounder Devin Singletary still hasn’t established himself as the feature running back he was supposed to be, while tight end Dawson Knox, the other third-rounder, has grown into the position, ditched the drops and become a genuine touchdown producer.’

Bills’ Gabriel Davis thanks Josh Allen for trusting him, expects big boost in playing time

‘“There’s guys all around the league that are kind of in similar situations, kind of a wait-your-turn situation,” Davis said. “That’s kind of what it was for me and I respected it, and whenever I went out there, I made sure I could make the most of it because that’s my job and that’s my role.”’

PlayAction: Bills’ center has a lot to talk about when he gets to line of scrimmage

‘Every play has a blocking scheme or a pass protection built into the call. If it’s a pass play and the Bills need to switch the protection call, the Bills have quarterback Josh Allen call the change. That’s the way New England always did it with Tom Brady, and Bills offensive coordinator Brian Daboll was trained in the New England system.’

Bills quarterback Josh Allen still limited in Thursday’s practice

‘In addition to Allen, defensive end Jerry Hughes (foot), defensive tackle Star Lotulelei (toe) and tight end Tommy Sweeney (hip) were limited Thursday.’

How we see it: Will Bills beat the Panthers in Week 15?

‘Carolina has lost eight of the last 10. The Panthers’ offense has been depleted by injuries. The Bills can capitalize, giving Buffalo a win in the quasi-reunion game. Bills, 30-17.’

View from Vegas: Tough to lay double digits to back the Bills vs. Panthers

‘While Cam Newton is certainly not the answer Panthers coach Matt Rhule hoped he would be, Rhule’s teams in the NFL and in college are still 38-16 against the spread as a visitor. Let see if he doesn’t improve on that here.’

Mayor Brown chills talk of downtown Bills stadium with support of Orchard Park site

‘”It looks to me, from everything I’ve read, everything I’ve heard, all of the discussions that I’ve been a part of, that the best, the smartest, the safest place to build a new stadium is in Orchard Park,” Brown said at a meeting of a local real estate group.’

Voice of the Fan: Buccaneers – and officials – stole one from Bills like pirates

‘The numerous controversial calls all went in the Pirates favor, at the most crucial times, particularly in the Bucs end zone near the end of regulation when replays definitively showed Stefon Diggs was held, had his jersey jerked, and then was tackled by Tampa defender Carlton Davis before the ball came. ‘

Bills DT Harrison Phillips is a pillar in the community, and on the defense

‘That’s notable because this Buffalo team has several players who do outstanding work in the region, yet Phillips has twice been the choice for the honor which, many players say, is the most meaningful they can achieve.’

Dion Dawkins: Bills offense has same mentality as Stephen Curry as critical final playoff push begins

‘“Whatever it takes to win, it’s what we’ll do,” Dawkins said. “If we have to pass 100 times in a game, and we’ll do it. … When you asked that question the first person I thought about was Stephen Curry. Like, he’s a 3-point shooter. If all he has to do is shoot 3-pointers over and over and over and over and over to get his team back in the game, why not do it?”’

Bills Mafia donates $40K to visually impaired charity in honor of ‘blind’ NFL refs after no-call

‘It all started when Hunter Schinabeck donated $17 to the organization Monday after officials were “unable to see the blatant pass interference on Stefon Diggs,” he wrote on his donation page. Schinabeck was referring to a third-and-2 play late in regulation when Bucs cornerback Carlton Davis made contact with Diggs on a throw to the end zone. A penalty would have set up first-and-goal with 22 seconds remaining.’

Bills Adopt Sense Of Urgency In Preparing To Host Panthers

‘“The time is now,” Dawkins said. “We understand that it’s time to punch that ticket. And we have our game faces on.”’

Bills Coach McDermott Rekindles Carolina Ties Vs Former Team

‘Bills player to watch: WR Gabriel Davis. With Emmanuel Sanders likely sidelined by a knee injury, Davis is considered an upgrade in reclaiming the No. 3 job he held for most of his rookie season in 2020. Davis had a season-high five catches for 43 yards and scored his fourth TD of the year while replacing Sanders against Tampa Bay.’

Bills fans donate over $20,000 to visual impairment charity to tease ‘blind’ officials from Buccaneers game

‘”People in Buffalo, when they are aware of an opportunity to help, they just rise to the occasion,” Tammy Owen, president and CEO of VIA, told News 4 Buffalo. “It makes you feel great, not only about the clients that we serve but the wonderful nature of the people who live in this community.”‘

Why unleashing Josh Allen is key to Buffalo Bills’ being Super Bowl contenders

‘The Bills should start their process by crafting a plan to unleash Josh Allen as an MVP-caliber playmaker with a unique set of skills as a dual-threat quarterback. With more than 4,000 total yards in the air and on the ground already, Allen has the potential to dominate the game with the ball in his hands. The Bills must feature him as a single-wing quarterback to maximize their offensive potential heading into the playoffs.’

Josh Allen limited for second-straight day

‘Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen was listed as “limited” for a second-straight day of practice on Thursday, as he deals with a foot injury suffered in the fourth quarter of the team’s 33-27 overtime loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Sunday.’

Bills fans donate more than $40,000 to Visually Impaired Advancement

‘”Hopefully, this donation is a small step in the greater fight of fighting blindness and getting those with visual impairment the help they need so something like this never happens again,” Schinabeck said.’

Bills Mafia raises about $40K for local nonprofit for visually impaired, within 24 hours

‘This after a Facebook post was made about the first donation coming from a Bills fan, in Massachusetts.’

Josh Allen limited in Thursday’s practice with left foot sprain

‘And while he didn’t look limited in what he could do and was moving around well during individual drills (the portion of practice the media can watch), his status for Sunday’s game against the Panthers is still up in the air as the Bills continue to monitor his progress.’

Josh Allen limited again in Bills practice with foot injury

‘Thursday at practice he was slinging the ball to his receivers alongside backup quarterback Mitch Trubisky. There didn’t seem to be any signs of an injury, although I am sure he is dealing with some nagging pain.’

Josh Allen limited in practice for second straight day

‘Barring anything out of the ordinary or major, Buffalo won’t make his game status official until either Friday or Sunday’s game against the Panthers.’
