‘Buffalo ranks 10th in yards per game and 8th in points per game. Both massive jumps from last year where they ranked in the bottom third of the NFL in both categories.’

‘Brian Daboll and Josh Allen put on a clinic in the national spotlight against a highly respected 49ers defense.’

‘The Bills offensive coordinator put on a clinic last night. He was matched up with Saleh, who has been the popular name to get a head coaching shot next year.(Likely Detroit). But Saleh does not want to have any owners or GM watching the tape from Monday night. His top 5 defense had not answers for Daboll. A smart team is going to try to steal the OC from the Bills in 2021.’

‘”My dad was a huge Niners fan, his family huge [fans],” Allen said. “I remember watching games going back to when I was four or five years old, tailgating and cherishing some of those moments because they were really cool growing up.”‘

‘When speaking about Josh Allen ,Saleh said Allen reminds him of a young Cam Newton and that he was much more than he expected when he turned on the tape.’

‘I know they have had an incredible amount of injuries that have taken stars off the field (Kittle, Jimmy G, Nick Bosa) but even with a compromised lineup the variance in their play has been substantial. They’ve beaten the Rams twice and lost to the Eagles. They blew out the Patriots in Foxboro and got blown out at home by the Dolphins. This isn’t the team that should have won the Super Bowl in February, but even with the changes you don’t know what you are getting week to week.’

‘The Bills love to be creative, but how do trick plays come to life for Buffalo?’

‘Klein had a career high 14 tackles and another 1 and a half sacks (career high 5 on the year) 3 tackles for loss and a pass defended to help the Bills beat the Chargers and move to 8-3 on the year. This week Matt Milano returns from injury which could impact the amount of time Klein is on the field against the 49ers. But the versatile veteran could also spend time paired with Milano and take snaps away from Tremaine Edmunds.’

‘”That’s a credit to them and credit to the coaches,” said McDermott. “It takes time to get comfortable with what we’re doing and the game of the NFL.”‘

‘McDermott added that he was encouraged by Milano’s rehab but would have to see how his pec would respond after practicing this week.’

‘”We feel if we go out and execute like we’re supposed to and take care of the ball like we’re supposed to good things tend to happen,” said Josh Allen.’

‘”Being in the right place mentally. Being around the right people,” said Diggs. “Limiting the distractions and part of that is being happy.”‘

‘”Kyle Shanahan is one of the best coaches in the NFL,” Poyer continued, “just the window dressing, all the stuff behind the scenes makes it really hard for defenses.”‘

‘The Bills head coach says it’s similar to what the team faced early this season during the COVID shutdown but joked, ‘the stakes are a little higher now.”

‘Under Sean McDermott’s defense in Carolina, Klein was a middle linebacker, now in Buffalo he’s on the outside. It might seem like a subtle move but it’s anything but.’
