‘In the 2022 playoffs, the Bills were 13.5-point favorites over a Miami Dolphins team that was starting Skylar Thompson under center. Due to multiple turnovers and a Miami defensive touchdown, a football game that should’ve never been close was very much in doubt in the second half.’

‘The game will be the first of two played on Monday. In the NFC, the Philadelphia Eagles visit the Tampa Bay Buccaneers for an 8:15 p.m. EST kickoff.’

‘The Buffalo Bills cornerback was named on Friday as a Second-Team All-Pro for the 2023 season. It marks the first time a slot corner has been named to an All-Pro team.’

‘”Our staff has been on it from the beginning of the week here, and things can change quickly,” said McDermott on Friday during his appearance on the “Extra Point Show” on WGR. “We’ve all learned that here in Buffalo with the weather, and we’ve been preparing all week long. I think like anything else, it’s one of those things we can’t control. There’s going to be some going into it, and having to adjust, perhaps, but overall, we’ll be well prepared.”‘

‘Wide receiver Gabe Davis, cornerback Rasul Douglas, safety Taylor Rapp, and linebacker Tyrel Dodson all sat out for a second-straight day due to injury.’

‘In the final five weeks of the 2023 season, Martin led the AFC in percentage of punts inside the 20-yard line (64.75%), 10-yard line (29.4%) and five-yard line (11.8%).’

‘Harty was named the Week 18 AFC Special Teams Player of the Week on Wednesday after returning a punt 96 yards for a touchdown in the fourth quarter of Buffalo’s 21-14 win over the Dolphins.’

‘It will be the first time the Bills will welcome the 49ers and Cardinals to Western New York since the 2016 season, where Buffalo came out on the victorious end of both matchups.’

‘During his weekly Zoom call with the media, Bills head coach Sean McDermott said Monday it was too early to know the severity of any of them. However, he should have more clarity when he meets with the media again on Wednesday.’

‘When Week 12 came to an end, the Bills were sitting in 11th place in the conference standings. They were three games back of the 9-3 Miami Dolphins in the AFC East.’

‘The Bills defeated the Dolphins in an epic regular season finale with the AFC East on the line.’

‘”You could feel his vibe. You could feel the vibe of the offense out there. Just a different energy,” McDermott said. “The ball finds you, and Josh was doing a good job of, what looked like, to me, going through his progression. He was playing the position at a high high level, and he’s as good as there is when he does that.”‘

‘”We knew what was in front of us. We had a lot of internal talks, and trusted the guys in this locker room,” said Allen during his postgame comments with the media on Sunday. “At the end of the day, this is fun, this is cool. I’ll never say ‘no’ to winning the division, but the only thing that it solidifies is a home game and one more game. It doesn’t mean anything unless we go out there next week and do our job.”‘

‘The Bills needed one yard to win the division. They lined up for a quarterback sneak to get that one yard. Miami knew it was coming and stopped it, taking over at their own 37-yard line with 1:53 remaining and a chance to tie the game.’

‘The 3-seed Chiefs will end up hosting the 6-seed Dolphins on Saturday night at 8 p.m. EST in Kansas City.’
