‘The Bills defense gives up the most points all season in any game, but they force three turnovers and give the Bills offense a chance to put up some points. This included a late forced fumble by cornerback Tre’Davious White to set up Stephen Hauschka for the game-winning field goal with 18-seconds to play.’

‘Will it continue? All I’ll say is it should be fun finding out.’

‘The wideout was just signed last week after being released by the Chicago Bears. All he did was catch four passes to lead all players with 107 receiving yards and come up with a few huge grabs the Bills desperately needed, including the longest play of the game – a 59-yard pass and catch from Tyrod Taylor on the first play after the Buccaneers took the lead in the fourth quarter. Thompson also had receptions of 23 and 27 yards on the day. It was just his second 100-yard performance of his 42-game career.’

‘“If I don’t give up that touchdown, we don’t lose. It’s that simple. I put that on myself. And then on the long third down, we are up, and then I give up the long third down and that’s the end of the third quarter and the next play they score so that loss is basically on those two plays by me and that ate me up for the last week and a half.”’

‘In addition to Matthews, McDermott said cornerbacks E.J. Gaines (groin) and Leonard Johnson (hamstring) will be limited when they take the field for Wednesday’s practice.’

‘”The minute that any quarterback takes away his strengths, and does what the people want him to do, he’ll be confused and mind-boggled. I know I wanted to progress as a passer. Wanted to do everything Andy Reid wanted me to do. Those are the moments you find out how good you really are. Be yourself, he led the league in all quarterbacks rushing since 2015. Take advantage of your god given gifts. I see him escaping the pocket and doing things we like to see, and quarterbacks should be able to do. There’s a lot of coordinators out there who would love to have their quarterbacks escaping the pocket, getting away from pressure, it’s a gift. Use it.”‘

‘”You evaluate everyone both individually and then together. You want to see the offense move. On the days that you don’t have your A game, how do you effect the team. Tyrod’s had some very very very good days, and what I’d call playoff caliber moments.”‘

‘In five games with Chicago this season, Thompson caught eleven passes for 125 yards and a touchdown. He also returned eleven kicks for an average of 20.8 yards per return, good for ninth in the league. Thompson is also ninth amongst all active players with a 24.8 yards per kick return average for his career.’

‘The next four weeks are all games this team can win. In fact, I wouldn’t be surprised if the Bills are actually favored in Vegas in every one of them. That’s already the case with the game this weekend against the Bucs, at least in the places that are taking action. The Bills are three-point favorites where you can find it. But the game is mostly off the board due to the uncertainty of Tampa’s QB situation. Jameis Winston is dealing with a sprained AC joint in his right shoulder. He may still start, but won’t throw all week. If Winston can’t go, it’s old pal Ryan Fitzpatrick that will get the call under center.’
