‘Coleman wasn’t targeted in playing 10 snaps in the first half, but his touchdown extended the Bills’ lead to 16-7 with 8:49 left in the third quarter.’

Three questions after the Buffalo Bills dominate the Pittsburgh Steelers
‘That the Buffalo Bills can overcome a messy first half, and that takeaways really, really matter. The Bills had two turnovers in the first half, and they looked hapless early against the Pittsburgh Steelers. But in their 26-7 win in Acrisure Stadium, the Bills defense evened things up. The Buffalo defense had two takeaways in five plays to start the third quarter, allowing the Bills to take and then extend the lead. Give game balls to defensive end Joey Bosa and cornerback Christian Benford for turning the tide for Buffalo. While the first-half deficiencies are worth examining, the Bills ultimately got the much-needed win.’
How Joey Bosa blew up Aaron Rodgers, plus other big plays that shaped the Bills' big win
‘Rodgers planted his back foot to prepare to throw, but he didn’t see the hit coming. Bosa got free and leveled Rodgers from behind. The quarterback fumbled. Benford picked up the ball and ran it in for a touchdown, giving the Bills their first lead in a 23-7 win over the Steelers.’
Bills Report Card: Defense puts together its most complete game of the season in big win
‘The offensive line did not give up a sack to Watt and Co. That’s a job well done, especially after Allen was sacked a career-high eight times in his last outing against Houston. Yes, the production from the passing game will need to be better moving forward.’
4 things that stood out in Bills' resounding Week 13 win against Steelers
‘“Yeah, maybe a little bit,” Allen said when asked if that hit ramped up the motivation. “Moving forward, probably don’t need that to get us going; need to find a way to get going by ourselves.”’
Bills report card: James Cook, backup offensive linemen bully Steelers
‘This is probably a little harsh because the Bills did not need their passing game Sunday, but they do not have a functional aerial attack right now, and that seems utterly insane given how explosive they have been for most of the previous six years. Those days are gone, at least until Brandon Beane can address the wide receiver position in a meaningful way.’
This monster hit on Aaron Rodgers completely changed the Bills-Steelers game (Observations)
‘Steelers quarterback Aaron Rodgers tried to buy time in the pocket for a receiver to get open, leaving Bosa with enough time to track him down from behind. The Bills’ edge rusher landed a monster hit on Rodgers, who fumbled the ball. Bills cornerback Christian Benford scooped up the ball and ran it in for a touchdown, giving Buffalo a lead it never gave back.’
How two backup tackles helped Buffalo Bills achieve something no team has ever done in Pittsburgh
‘Offensively, figuring it out meant running the ball down Pittsburgh’s throat. James Cook led the way with 144 yards on 32 carries, and Ray Davis added several tough runs where he picked up plenty of yards after initial contact. He would finish with a 9-62 stat line. Between Cook, Davis, Ty Johnson and Josh Allen, Buffalo went on to make history, rushing for the most yards ever at Acrisure Stadium by a visiting team. Cook and company deserve much of the praise, but doing so with two backups at offensive tackle, Ryan Van Demark and Alec Anderson, makes the feat that much more impressive.’
James Cook reveals what he texted reserve OL ahead of the Buffalo Bills’ record-breaking day
‘“I texted those guys, both of them, today when I woke up. Just told them, I trust in them and believe in them. Just, let’s go and get a win.”’
Steelers star Cam Heyward furious after what Bills’ Josh Allen allegedly did to him during game
‘Heyward accused Allen of an intentional cheap shot. Per Chris Adamski of the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review, Heyward said that Allen kneed him in the stomach on purpose. This led to Heyward getting into it with Allen and ultimately led to an unsportsmanlike penalty on the defensive tackle.’
T.J. Watt ‘out of words’ trying to describe Bills’ historic rushing performance vs. Steelers
‘“I’ve never seen a team run the same play as much as they ran it today and have as much success as they had,” Watt said. “I mean, I’m out of words for it.”’
Bills run over Steelers in second half to secure win
‘The play that swung everything the Bills’ way came on the Steelers’ first offensive snap of the second half. Pittsburgh held a 7-3 lead before Joey Bosa whirled around the corner and sacked Aaron Rodgers, forcing a fumble in the process. Christian Benford scooped up the loose ball and waltzed in untouched for a 17-yard touchdown that gave the Bills a lead it would not surrender.’
Sabato: Bills rebound to punish the Steelers in Pittsburgh to take step in right direction
‘Boos erupting midway through the third quarter, loud chants of “Fire Tomlin” mixed in and “Renegade” played to a half-empty stadium with 10 minutes remaining. The Bills punked the Steelers in their own stadium.’

Bills, and then Steelers, took ball out of Aaron Rodgers' hands
‘The Bills (8-4) rushed for 249 yards – more than any opponent ever at Acrisure Stadium – to control the tempo, flow, momentum and then some. James Cook ran for 144 yards and Josh Allen, as usual, chipped in with some clutch runs, finishing off one drive with a 8-yard TD on fourth down.’
