‘After scoring a touchdown in the second half, Allen celebrated by pointed up to the sky.’

‘BillsMafia wanted to support Allen and his family and had the idea to start donating money to Josh’s favorite charities, the Oishei Children’s Hospital in Buffalo.’

‘I just wanted to give you a rundown of the cliches we get when we ask about a statement win. But I don’t believe the players feel that way and they shouldn’t. The Seahawks came into Orchard Park at 6-1 with the leading MVP quarterback at QB. They left a decisive loser in a game the Bills control from the opening kickoff. In the standings this game actually counts less than many of the others because it’s an NFC team. But to handle a team that is going to the playoffs and is in the conversation for the Super Bowl is impressive and the Bills should get confidence from the win.’

‘It’s pretty obvious the Bills head coach doesn’t trust his defense. But does he feel that way about his quarterback? Every Seahawks game is a shootout and they usually win (6-1). But does Sean McDermott believe he has the quarterback and the offense to go head to head with Seattle and outscore them? I think it is the worst the shot. The Bills did not think their defense was good enough to go full go against the Chiefs and they ended up trying to squeeze out a win. They did not. It will be fascinating if McDermott believes Allen can win a shootout against Russell Wilson.’

‘”That’s part of the goal when you take over a new program. It’s a full team effort,” added McDermott. “It’s been a process, not to throw that word out there, but it has been and that’s to be expected.”‘

‘”We understand how well the Seahawks are playing and how well Russell Wilson is playing,” said Allen. “We gotta make sure we’re doing our part to keep them off the field as much as possible.”‘

‘Seattle has scored four touchdowns in every single game this season.’

‘Later in 2018, Worley signed with the Oakland Raiders. After sitting out a 4 game suspension for violating the NFL’s personal conduct policy, Worley got on the field and started 9 games in 2018 for Oakland. After a second year with the Raiders, Worley signed a one year, $3 million dollar deal with the Cowboys. His time in Dallas was short. The Cowboys defense was horrendous and Worley’s numbers were not good and he was released after week 7.’

‘”We’ve had our moments,” laughed the Bills defensive coordinator. “I’m not going to lie to ya.”‘

‘”That’s exciting because I think there is better football yet to be coached and played,” added McDermott. “I know where at the halfway point and everyone wants to write that story but there is a lot of football yet to be coached.”‘

‘On Monday the Bills offensive coordinator in Daboll met with reporters over Zoom to break down his assessment of the Bills offense and what players like Allen, Jon Feliciano and Zack Moss add for Buffalo.’

‘After a strong start, the Bills offense sputtered.’

‘Now it’s not a post season win, or a Super Bowl but it’s a step we haven’t seen a Bills team take in years.’

‘A week ago the thought was that the defense found a spark against the Jets. Realistically they just found the Jets. The Patriots walked up and down the field against the Bills and Buffalo made Damien Harris and Jakobi Meyers look like stars. This defense has been bad all year and the second half of the Jets game just looks like a mirage.’

‘”I honestly don’t know what to feel right now… it’ll probably take me a good 24 hours to realize everything that happened,” said Zimmer post game.’
