‘According to the Bills, the first 150 folks who donated to Dalton’s foundation — details of which you can find here, the Daltons’ goal is “to provide daily support, opportunities, resources and life-changing experiences to seriously ill and physically challenged children and their families in Cincinnati and Fort Worth” — managed to generate more than $3,000 in donations for the Andy & Jordan Dalton Foundation.’

‘How exactly the Bills are planning to give the Bengals their free wings — hopefully they aren’t going to buy wings and then ship them to Cincinnati, because that sounds awful — is unknown, but it’s a nice gesture. It’s not everyday you break your historic playoff drought thanks to a heroic touchdown by Andy Dalton and Tyler Boyd of all players. So, wings (and more than a few drinks) seems like an appropriate way to celebrate.’

‘The touchdown seemed so obvious on the field that an official working the game almost sounded confused when he found out the score had been overturned. That official, deep judge Mark Hittner, was talking with Taylor and Bills coach Sean McDermott when the replay reversal was announced in the stadium.’

‘Don’t read the replies there unless you love reading swear words. The folks who saw that tweet weren’t the only ones who disagreed with the call. There were plenty of folks who believed the Pats were getting a good deal on the play in question.’

‘”Man, it’s a joke, dog,” he said, via ESPN.com’s Mike Rodak. “Man, I don’t know what to say on that. I’m laying there. He snuck me with my back turned. He could have broke my neck. I mean, I got a son to raise. All that. People don’t think about that when they just react. … The guy did what he wanted to do. He is what he did. Dirty shot, so what does that make him? Dirty player. Simple.”‘

‘Things got real crazy during the final minute of regulation — and we nearly got a rare Colts 8-7 victory. Instead, silliness occurred and it went to overtime.’

‘If Taylor can’t go, at least Peterman will face a friendlier pass defense this time around. The Bills don’t rush the passer or cover receivers nearly as well as do the Chargers, so that should give him a better chance to get into a rhythm and avoid costly turnovers. If Taylor can play, hopefully for Buffalo he can do a bit better than he did against New England.’

‘White, who entered concussion protocol as a consequence of Gronkowski’s elbow drop, was cleared to return to practice on Thursday. He also spoke for the first time about the league levying just a one-game suspension for what everyone agrees was dirty and dangerous.’

‘A beer at the game would literally cost more than twice the price of your ticket.’

‘Pats coach Bill Belichick apologized to Bills coach Sean McDermott for the hit after the game, calling it “bulls–t.”‘

‘”I just didn’t understand why there wasn’t a flag [against White for defensive holding just prior to the interception],” the tight end explained. “… And they’re calling me for the craziest stuff ever.”‘

‘McDermott told reporters that he’d have to review the film before deciding if Taylor would return to the lineup, which is exactly what happened when the Bills beat the Chiefs last Sunday. Now, however, the extent of Taylor’s injury could mean that McDermott doesn’t have a choice and will have to turn to an embattled rookie and hope he can help the Bills to the playoffs for the first time since 1999.’

‘The Chiefs may have to file a complaint against the Bills for fielding a literal robot against them, as wide receiver Zay Jones accidentally flexed his hydraulic systems while standing up after diving for a deep pass from Tyrod Taylor. In the glitchiest glitch to ever glitch, Jones glided to his feet, and people are kind of freaking out.’

‘I’ve said it before and I will say it again – you can do a helluva lot worse than Taylor in this league, he can win with a little around him and be a winning quarterback. He’s clearly not Buffalo’s QB of the future, and I still expect him to be dealt in the offseason … but he just might sneak the into the playoffs before then.’

‘Taylor’s contract has all sorts of weird language. He has an out after this season that would result in about $8.6 million of dead cap space. Given how things are going now, the Bills may want to move on from him, although La Canfora reports the Bills will try to trade him first before waiving him. However, given Peterman’s outing, it’s clear he isn’t ready to start. The Bills could go QB in the draft, but that’s a roll of the dice as well. Taylor certainly seems to have a lot of leverage, but it’s obviously up to the Bills to decide if they’re ready to move past him after this year.’
