‘In last Sunday’s victory over the New England Patriots, Allen picked up his 75th career win which tied Russell Wilson for the most wins by a quarterback in his first seven seasons. With a win against the Jets, Allen can surpass Wilson and have the most wins all time by a quarterback in his first seven seasons.’

Game Predictions | Buffalo Bills vs. New York Jets | Week 17
‘The Bills got too close for comfort against the Patriots, having a bit of a sloppy divisional home game with Josh Allen going from white hot to rather ice cold. The Jets also stopped their offensive momentum vs. the Rams. Something has to give, and it’s easy to trust Allen over Aaron Rodgers this season.’

Ryan O'Halloran: Bills' Brandon Beane believes top lieutenants ready to become general managers
‘For the Buffalo Bills, who are 12-3 entering Sunday’s game against the New York Jets, a fifth consecutive AFC East title could lead to head-coaching opportunities for offensive coordinator Joe Brady. In the front office, general manager Brandon Beane believes two of his top lieutenants – assistant general manager Brian Gaine and director of player personnel Terrance Gray – deserve interest.’
Rasul Douglas, Matt Milano set to return to Bills' lineup; four others questionable
‘Safeties Damar Hamlin (rib) and Taylor Rapp (neck), wide receiver Curtis Samuel (rib) and defensive back Cam Lewis (shoulder) are all questionable for Sunday’s game. All four have been limited all week.’
Damar Hamlin-backed HEARTS Act signed into law by President Biden
‘The Cardiomyopathy Health Education, Awareness, and Research, and AED Training in the Schools Act of 2024 (HEARTS Act) was signed into law by President Joe Biden on Monday.’
And the people were filled with joy when the child said 'Go Bills!'
‘When Joseph and Mary are told there’s no room in the inn, the two respond in unison that they will rest in a stable, where Mary will give birth to a son, whom they will name Jesus. That’s where Mary stops, but Shepard continues: “Go Bills.” The quip drew a surprised laugh from the audience, despite it being in an area dominated by Baltimore Ravens fans.’
Erik Brady: The Chargers' free kick against the Bills in 1976 was memorable. The game was not
‘Courier-Express beat reporter Jim Baker called it “one of the most inept quarterbacking performances ever witnessed in a Bills’ uniform.” (Mind you, Nathan Peterman would not be born for 18 more years.)’
Buffalo Bills injury update: A strong player returning, but defense still hurting
‘Rapp and Hamlin have each missed the last two games and were limited this week in practice which has been an ongoing trend. Lewis has started in place of Rapp, but he is now dealing with a shoulder injury which has clouded his availability. He has been limited in practice.’
Return of Taylor Rapp should help a leaky Bills pass defense against Aaron Rodgers
‘To decipher Rapp’s value, look no further than the games the Bills have allowed the most passing yards. Rapp was playing injured or out in four of the five games Buffalo allowed more than 250 yards through the air, including the last three games.’

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.”‘
