‘”It forces you to be more prepared, to go out there and have better practices and be more locked in on the details,” Bills quarterback Josh Allen said. “Obviously, that offense is playing at a high level. Everybody knows that.”‘

‘”That’s my guy,” Wilkins said. “I love Josh. We’re cool. We’re tight.”‘

‘Bass, 26, previously won the award in October 2021 and November 2022.’

‘”I just feel like it’s not different from any away game,” Hill said. “They got a great team. I feel like the fanbase is just like any other fanbase, so it’s like a normal environment to us. True ballers are going to go in there unfazed and make plays and do what we’ve been doing all year.”‘

‘Bernard sacked the quarterback twice, intercepted a pass and recovered a fumble in Buffalo’s 37-3 win against the Washington Commanders.’

‘There’s no doubt about it — that Miami offense is legit and explosive. Through three weeks, they currently lead the league in total yards (1,656), passing yards (1,091), touchdowns (17) and points per game (43.1).’

‘We also didn’t see much of him last season, but all of a sudden, Bernard has stepped in and is making a huge difference for this defense.’

‘”I think I’ve said it from the beginning of the year, this is a guy who just seems like he’s always around the ball,” safety Jordan Poyer said. “Great instincts, commands the defense. He made some huge plays today — some plays that just kept our momentum going, and he’s going to continue to make plays for this defense. Great player.”‘

‘Taking over as defensive coordinator, his group dominated Sunday — forcing five turnovers and collecting nine sacks. Only an embarrassing Washington field goal in the last minute prevent Buffalo from pitching a shutout.’

‘”It’s one of the best groups, if not the best group, in the league,” Allen said. “Up front, they’re all big, fast, powerful, explosive, they all can get after the quarterback — so (we’re) trying to make sure they don’t take over the game, because they have the ability to do that. Making sure we’re dialed in, communicating well — and ultimately, the team that best executes on Sunday’s going to win the game.”‘

‘”He seems like he’s playing pretty confident,” Bills safety Jordan Poyer said. “He’s got really good arm strength, he can move around in the pocket, he can make plays with his legs sometimes, and he’s going to throw the football and trust his playmakers to go up and make plays.”‘

‘”I make fun of him a whole lot,” Diggs said. “I think I’m harder than anyone else is on him. I want him to have success. He’s grinding all the time, and I just tell him ‘I need you to break some more tackles, I need you to make some things happen because we’ve got two backs that, if we get in that red zone, Jimbo, you’re not going to be on that field. We’ve got (Latavius), we’ve got Damien, they run extremely hard, they’re going to punch it in.’ I said ‘My only recipe for you is (if) you want to score, you’re going to have to score from depth.'”‘

‘Klein, 32, played for the Bills during the 2020 and 2021 seasons. After brief stints with three other teams in 2022, he rejoined the Bills last November and was with the team through the rest of the season.’

‘The Buffalo Bills play on Sunday in the nations capital. Flights on Saturday from Rochester to D.C. may be impacted by heavy rain falling in the D.C. area. While the storm will be moving away from the stadium by Sunday afternoon, lingering light rain and gusty winds are likely Sunday afternoon.’

‘”The communication that we had as an offense, as a staff, it was very open and honest,” Allen explained. “(Now, we’re) just making sure we’re staying on top of those things and taking the same approach every week.”‘
