Why James Cook is the NFL’s best running back you haven’t heard of
‘Cook, though, is secretly putting together one of the most hidden great seasons in NFL history. He is a big reason the Bills won last week against the New England Patriots and why they’re a strong contender to finally win a Super Bowl.’
Bills' Josh Allen confirms that he broke his hand in Week 1 of his MVP-caliber season
‘Allen, who was back on the injury report this week with elbow and shoulder injuries, confirmed the report about his hand prior to Buffalo’s Week 17 matchup with the New York Jets.’
Ryan Fitzpatrick Pleads Case for Prime to Go to Buffalo for First Playoff Game
‘Richard Sherman was aligned on the Buffalo pick, but wants a more intriguing game: the Bills hosting Joe Burrow and the Cincinnati Bengals after a miracle playoff run to the playoffs by the Bayou Bengals.’
Bills offensive tackle Spencer Brown continues to point out hypocrisy in Josh Allen vs Lamar Jackson MVP debate
‘”I just feel bad for a guy that’s done everything right,” Brown said. “This is his [fifth] consecutive year putting up 40 plus touchdowns and everyone’s going to say that statistically the other guy should win. If you rewind back to last year, Josh had every statistic and [Jackson] still won… we were counted out a lot. [Everyone said] ‘Everybody left, we didn’t have anybody, we weren’t supposed to win the division, we weren’t supposed to make the playoffs.’ Now we’re talking about the two seed. There’s just a lot that goes into it and I just feel bad for Josh and what he has to deal with.”‘
Ryan Fitzpatrick begs Roger Goodell to send Prime Video to Buffalo for Bills wild card game
‘”Roger, I played in the NFL for 17 years,” Fitzpatrick said. “You know how many times I went to the playoffs. Roger? None. Zero. Send me home to Buffalo. Send me to Buffalo to watch them beat up on the Broncos, Roger – I beg of you.”‘
McDermott: 'Every game is important in the NFL'
‘”It’s big for us, and it’s big because it is one of the goals that we set during the start of the season of playing well at home, and then playing well in the division. It is important for us to play well at home, in front of our fans in particular,” said Bills head coach Sean McDermott during his weekly appearance on the “Extra Point Show” on Friday.’
Bills LB Matt Milano, CB Rasul Douglas set to return
‘Linebacker Matt Milano and cornerback Rasul Douglas do not have injury designations for the regular season home finale. Milano missed last week’s game against the New England Patriots with a groin injury, and Doulgas has missed the past two games after hurting his knee.’
Carucci Take2: Importance of No. 2 playoff seed will be in play when Bills face Jets
‘They’re out of the running for the top spot, which Kansas City earned, along with a first-round bye, by beating Pittsburgh on Christmas Day. With a 12-3 record, the Bills are assured of being no lower than the No. 3 seed. A victory Sunday or in the season finale at New England moves them to No. 2.’
Buffalo Bills injury report vs. Jets | Week 17
‘S Damar Hamlin (ribs), DB Cam Lewis (shoulder), WR Curtis Samuel (ribs) and S Taylor Rapp (neck) will be limited in Friday’s practice and will all be listed as questionable for Week 17.’

Inside the Bills: Why DaQuan Jones is a 'foundational' piece of the defense
‘“He’s the foundation of what this defense is about,” West said of Jones. “Not only being a one-technique and bringing the physicality, the get-off, the penetration, but the rush. He’s the closest one to the quarterback, to the ball, that affects the ball. But also, his veteran leadership is the foundation of what this defense is and what this defensive line is.”’
PlayAction: Logic says Jets should cut their losses with Aaron Rodgers after season
‘Rodgers will count $49 million in dead space against the salary cap if the Jets release him and decide not to spread out the pain of his cap hit over the 2025 and 2026 seasons.’
Bills notebook: Josh Allen 'just a little sore'; Thursday injury report
‘Now, Allen is dealing with a right elbow and right shoulder injury that he sustained in the win over the New England Patriots on Sunday. Allen was a full participant in Thursday’s practice, and he was projected as full on Wednesday, when the Bills did not practice but gave estimations for the injury report.’
Jim Kubiak: Josh Allen was seemingly subpar vs. Patriots, but don't be fooled. Here's what we learned
‘Allen’s value in this game superseded his QBR, his passer rating and even his performance grade because of the Patriots’ strategy. Allen’s presence actually dictated the defensive schemes, whether he was making plays or not. This opened the door for the Bills to run the football – and once offensive coordinator Joe Brady settled into a balanced attack, the Bills’ offense excelled and rushed the football for 172 yards.’
Bills playoff seeding scenarios: Buffalo can clinch No. 2 seed Sunday
‘One more win ensures the Bills host at least two playoff games, should it advance to the divisional round of the postseason.’
