Rochester Democrat and Chronicle

‘The Bills’ defense has been outstanding this season, but missed tackles have been an issue for this team going back a few years and Sunday, they were egregiously bad.’

‘Daboll was riding high in 2022, his first season as head coach in New York, as he led the team to a surprising NFC wild-card appearance and then a stunning victory over the Vikings before they were thumped out of the playoffs by the Eagles. But this season has been a disaster for the G-men.’

‘The Buffalo Bills and Jacksonville Jaguars traded haymakers for 60 minutes and the Bills came out the far more battered and bruised team, both on the scoreboard and in the medical tent.’

‘I thought Jags coach Doug Pederson out-schemed McDermott in several areas. The Jags defense had answers for almost everything Allen tried until the fourth quarter. And his offense also did a great job on third down – 10-of-17 – on the way to 29 first downs and 38 minutes, 12 seconds of possession time.’

‘Bills players and head coach Sean McDermott was asked if they should’ve taken their Transatlantic flight sooner, and if fatigue contributed to the stagnant start.’

‘Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen yelled out “LeBron James” twice during an audible in the second quarter against the Jacksonville Jaguars in London. The audible could be heard on the NFL Network live broadcast.’

‘Sal’s prediction: Bills 31, Jaguars 20.’

‘NFL Network is televising the game, and in most cases, if you have a certain tier of subscription with Spectrum you will be able to watch the game. But if you don’t have NFL Network as part of your subscription, there is no local network coverage available.’

‘Rousseau apparently hurt his foot in the victory over the Dolphins last week and he was unable to practice in the Bills’ two workouts back in Orchard Park and then Friday’s walk-through at The Grove, the facility where the Bills are staying outside of London.’

‘“When you look at it as a whole, yeah, you’re basically stunned like, ‘OK, this is an undertaking,’” Rowe said Wednesday, one day before the Bills made their way to London, where they will play “host” to the Jacksonville Jaguars Sunday. “But from our standpoint we’ve had a good core group of people. There’s been a lot of people involved; it’s not just Matt and I.”’

‘Now, after the disappointment Jackson felt at the end of training camp when he was told that Benford had beaten out him and Kaiir Elam for the right to start at CB2, Jackson is likely the new starter in place of White beginning Sunday in London when the Bills take on the Jacksonville Jaguars.’

‘“I don’t know if the fans can expect to see me yet,” he said on the Von Cast. “But if I was a betting man I’d say you can expect to see Von Miller in London. This is my first chance to play in London. I want this to happen and I’m pushing for this to happen. I think you can go ahead and check that box and you guys will be seeing me play in London.”’

‘Ahead of Buffalo’s London-based contest against the Jacksonville Jaguars, Gov. Kathy Hochul directed New York’s liquor authority to extend its deadline for special permits Tuesday, which would allow sports bars and restaurants throughout the state to start serving alcohol as early as 8 a.m.’

‘Here are some bars in the Rochester area that will be open for the game.’

‘Could this team be 10-1 when it visits Philadelphia in Week 12?’
