‘”That’s one thing the media doesn’t see. Everyone’s worried about what we’re doing, and we’re doing everything we can. We’re doing extra walk-throughs with our coaches. The coaches know that we’re spending time together in the offseason. We’re here all summer, all winter. We’re just trying to build that bond and continue to be ready when the time comes,” shared Bishop.’

Bills-Bears preseason game No. 2: Here's whose stock went up and whose stock went down
‘Did we mention there weren’t many positives to take out of this game?’
Buffalo Bills safeties have a rough night in Chicago: 'A lot that needs to be cleaned up'
‘“Obviously, trying to get my feet back underneath me – I’ve only been back at practice for a little bit,” Bishop said after the loss. “But I felt good. It felt good to get back out there and knock off some rust, but definitely some stuff to improve on.”’
Why the Bills should prioritize an extension for center Connor McGovern
‘McGovern has become an invaluable member of the Super Bowl contender. According to Pro Football Focus, he allowed zero sacks and zero quarterback hits in his 959 snaps last season. At 6-foot-6, 317 pounds, McGovern was viewed by the Dallas Cowboys coaching staff as too big to play the position in their offense, but he is a perfect fit for the Bills’ duo running scheme, and his intellect became an invaluable resource for Allen.’
Bills stock up, stock down after listless preseason loss to Bears
‘S Jordan Hancock: The rookie fifth-round pick led the Bills with eight tackles before exiting with a shoulder injury. Hancock was active against the run, delivering a tackle for loss and stuffing a third-and-goal carry at the 1-yard line. After being moved around the secondary during training camp, Hancock looks to have found a home at safety.’
Everything Sean McDermott said after Bills preseason clunker against Bears
‘I’ll just break it down. Line of scrimmage, we didn’t win the line of scrimmage. Fundamentally, we weren’t good enough. Too many penalties. You get out there and, you know, playing against their ones, I expect, we expect to compete with them. And that wasn’t the case early. Our twos then who were out there competing against their twos and our threes against their threes, it didn’t get much better. So, you know, we got to look at it, figure some things out and, and evaluate some of the guys as well and see where we stand there. And a lot of work to get done this week as we move forward here. So I thought we made had some momentum coming off that practice which I thought was a good practice for us. Tonight, however, not even close. So we go back and head back tonight and get back to Buffalo and have a good week of practice coming up.’

‘Although Bishop and Hamlin disappointed on Sunday night, they were not alone. Buffalo displayed poor fundamentals, tackling, coverage and more throughout the game. Exhibition or not, Sean McDermott will have plenty to say about how the team executed against Chicago.’
FOX’s Joe Davis confuses Bills legend Thomas with Yankees’ Munson in broadcast error
‘FOX broadcaster Joe Davis proved that during the Buffalo Bills’ 38-0 loss to the Chicago Bears on Sunday night. During the third quarter of the game, Davis and Greg Olsen had Bills GM Brandon Beane on set. The trio discussed Josh Allen, the NFL’s reigning MVP, to set up a video package.’
