‘”Growing up, my dad (taught me) one of the main things was to control my emotions. Even the other day, Diggs and them were talking about ‘I can’t tell if you’re nervous or not, or how you’re feeling.’ Me, I just laugh. How I’m talking to you is how I am 24/7 — just a cool, chill, laid-back person — that’s just who I am.”‘

‘Poyer reportedly had X-rays on his ribs after Buffalo’s win at Baltimore last Sunday. The 10-year veteran safety appeared to be wincing in pain after intercepting a pass in the Buffalo end zone late in the game.’

‘Three Bills players either played with or against Pickett during his days at the University of Pittsburgh, and they all said the same thing about him Wednesday.’

‘”Some guys are aliens visiting from another planet, you know, and that’s just the reality of it,” Steelers coach Mike Tomlin said of Miller. “In the National Football League, you’ve got to respect all these guys, right? They’re all freaky. But some guys are even freaky in our setting, and he’s just one of those guys. He needs no endorsement from me. His resume is his resume. Kudos to Von Miller. Tip of the cap to Von Miller.”‘

‘Poyer had two interceptions in the fourth quarter, along with six tackles and three passes defensed on the afternoon, as the Bills rallied from a 20-3 deficit to beat the Ravens 23-20.’

‘Someone caught all 13 of Pickett’s passes — 10 of them went to his own teammates, while the Jets intercepted the other three.’

‘”Leadership in this locker room, the type of guys we’ve got in this locker room, just line back up and do it again,” Miller said. “Even though it was 20-3, we never felt like we were out of it. The energy on the sideline was never negative. We never felt like the game was over.”‘

‘Coach Sean McDermott said Monday that White, who tore an ACL last Thanksgiving in New Orleans and hasn’t played since, continues to rehab the injury and no decision has been made on his return.’

‘Crowder was injured while returning a punt early in the second half of Buffalo’s 23-20 win in Baltimore.’

‘Trailing 20-3 in the second quarter, Buffalo slowly crept their way back, ending with a 21-yard game-winning field goal as time expired.’

‘The team was playing poorly. They were making mistakes, and they were getting dominated by the Ravens because of those mistakes. But they fought back.’

‘The Buffalo Plus team is unanimously predicting the Bills will bounce back after last weekend’s meltdown in Miami.’

‘In terms of players who won’t be out there, DT Jordan Phillips (hamstring), WR Jake Kumerow (ankle), and rookie CB Christian Benford (hand) will be sidelined this weekend.’

‘”What loss? I don’t remember that,” Miller said. “That’s the mindset you’ve got to have, man. You’ve just got to keep pushing. You can accept defeat sometimes, you know? Because you know you shouldn’t have been beat, or you shouldn’t have lost that game if you had another crack at it, you know, it would be different.”‘

‘”I got letters to my house, Edible Arrangements to my door, it was crazy,” Jackson said. “I really, truly appreciate that from the heart — shoutout to everybody who reached out and was truly concerned for me.”‘
