‘“Anytime you can get reps, it definitely helps,” Andreessen told The Buffalo News. “Whether it’s rookies, second-year guys or third-year guys, the more you see someone play, the more comfortable you see them get and the more plays they’re able to make.”’

Big money on the line: Several Bills within reach of lucrative contract incentives in Week 18
‘Individually, however, there is plenty at stake. Sports business website Spotrac.com does a great job each year publishing a collection of which players are close to hitting individual contract incentives that are often quite lucrative. The Bills have quite a few of those in sight. That could factor into coach Sean Mc- Dermott’s decision making on who to play, and for how long, in Week 18 against the New York Jets.’
How the Buffalo Bills are managing this week with just two rostered quarterbacks
‘“We’ve been basically in walkthrough mode, other than yesterday a little bit,” Bills coach Sean McDermott said Friday. “Josh didn’t practice, so Mitch took the snaps with the starting offense, and then he turned around and took snaps to service the defense as well.’
Bills QB Josh Allen ‘good to go’ for final regular-season game at Highmark Stadium
‘The injury to Allen’s right foot will not prevent him from facing the New York Jets, Bills coach Sean McDermott announced Friday, but it will likely be for only one snap to extend his NFL-best streak of 139 consecutive starts. If Allen plays just one snap, he’d finish his eighth NFL season with 3,668 passing yards, 25 passing touchdowns, 579 rushing yards and 14 rushing touchdowns.’

My View: Everybody has their own special rituals on game day
‘On game day, my son-in-law believes that he has to stay home in order for the Bills to be triumphant on the field. When he watches the game from the comfort of his home, the Bills tend to win. My son-in-law also believes that he must wear the same undershirt and the same pants that he has worn for every Bills game this season. Our home team wins more often when he wears this familiar attire.’
Jim Kubiak: Josh Allen was indecisive, stubborn vs Eagles. He can’t do that again
‘What Hurts did was classic game management. He didn’t take costly sacks; he escaped under pressure; and he threw the football away time and again to preserve field position, situations and most importantly, to avoid negative plays that hurt his team. This is why the Eagles beat the Bills. Hurts protected the football. He was decisive, and his actions rarely if ever hurt opportunities. Allen, conversely, was sacked five times for a whopping 51 yards. He dropped and recovered a fumbled snap, and he unnecessarily fumbled, trying to do more than the play called for.’
McDermott plays it close to vest on Bills player usage in latest injury update
‘McDermott already ruled out linebacker Terrel Bernard earlier in the week due to the calf injury he suffered in last week’s loss to Philadelphia, and he added that safety Jordan Poyer (hamstring) and DaQuan Jones (calf) with both be sidelined. Both of them sat out the Eagles game and did not practice this week.’

‘White will make $1 million in incentives for playing time if he keeps his defensive snaps count above 65%. He’s currently at 69.9%. If he raises that 75% of defensive snaps, it jumps to $1.5. He also has one interception. One more and he gets $250K.’
Why the 1993 comeback game behind Frank Reich might be Highmark Stadium’s top game
‘The Bills knew they’d be in for a battle, but no one could have foreseen just how badly things would be. Warren Moon got off to a blazing start completing 19 of his 22 first-half passes for 218 yards and four touchdowns as the Oilers gushed to a seemingly insurmountable 28-3 lead. And when cornerback Bubba McDowell picked off a Frank Reich pass and raced 58 yards to the end zone two minutes into the third quarter to make it 35-3, Buffalo’s plight was downright hopeless.’

Josh Allen headlines greatest individual performances in Highmark Stadium history
