‘Allen and the five-time defending AFC East champion Bills (12-3) are one win from locking up the conference’s No. 2 seed entering the playoffs.’

Bills seek to lock up AFC’s No. 2 seed in closing home schedule against the Jets
‘Key matchup – Bills pass rush vs. Jets O-line. The Bills, who rely mostly on a four-man pass rush, rank 25th in the NFL in by averaging 6.59% sacks per pass attempt. They face a veteran quarterback in Rodgers and a line that will be without starting left tackle after rookie Olu Fashanu (left foot) landed on IR this week. Max Mitchell and Carter Warren were competing this week to replace him.’
Bills offensive line makes its MVP choice clear with Josh Allen’s Christmas gift
‘The O-line gave Josh Allen a monogrammed diamond necklace as a Christmas gift. It’s in the shape of a jersey and has Allen’s number (17) and “MVP” monogrammed on the front. Inscribed on the back are the names of Buffalo’s offensive linemen.’
Is this Josh Allen's MVP season?
‘Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson’s performance vs. the Houston Texans on Christmas Day improved his odds to +180. Philadelphia Eagles running back Saquon Barkley is behind them at +1800 and Cincinnati Bengals’ QB Joe Burrow may be listed at +10000 odds but has a compelling statistical argument for the award, especially if the Bengals sneak into the playoffs.’
Bills could lose offensive coordinator Joe Brady to Chicago Bears
‘It’s no secret that Joe Brady has been a Godsend for the Buffalo Bills. When he took over as interim offensive coordinator last season, the Bills went 6-1 to finish the season and won the AFC East and have gone 12-3 up to this point in the regular season. A combined record of 18-4 while Buffalo has been one of the best offenses in the NFL despite all the turnover in the offseason is a big feather in Brady’s cap that could see him leave Buffalo to become a head coach. And as it was pointed out on the broadcast of the matchup between the Seattle Seahawks and Chicago Bears on Thursday Night Football, Chicago could be his destination.’
Bills Pro Bowler recruiting Cleveland Browns star Myles Garrett to Buffalo?
‘Dion Dawkins recently posted a video on his Instagram showcasing his season highlights, which Garrett commented on saying “He’s like that.” Dawkins replied telling Garrett that “Iron sharpens iron.” Could this be Dawkins hinting at Garrett to request a trade to the Bills in the offseason? And if it is, Brandon Beane needs to pull the trigger.’
Bills could have two less names to worry about against Jets on Sunday
‘Sitting 4-11 after mustering only nine points in a loss to the Rams last week, the Jets appear to be half-strength heading to Orchard Park with Davante Adams and Sauce Gardner both skipping practice again on Thursday.’
Bills star fires back at ESPN for mind-numbing take on QB Josh Allen
‘What a hilariously stupid take. And Bills offensive tackle Spencer Brown agrees, as he responded to Scott’s words on X. “They just let anybody on TV,” Brown said.’
Milano, Douglas listed as full participants on Thursday
‘The Thursday injury reports are out for both the Buffalo Bills and New York Jets ahead of their matchup this Sunday at Highmark Stadium.’
Opinion: Same old Jets: Another losing season
‘There have been numerous issues with the Jets, including an offensive line that couldn’t keep 41-year-old quarterback Aaron Rodgers from taking a beating.’
Bills' path to New Orleans this February may have to go through Kansas City first
‘Thanks to the Chiefs’ 29-10 win over the Pittsburgh Steelers on Christmas Day, Kansas City has officially clinched the No. 1 seed in the AFC, meaning the team will, once again, earn a first-round bye to open the playoffs in January. It is the fourth time under quarterback Patrick Mahomes and head coach Andy Reid where the Chiefs have clinched the conference’s top seed entering the playoffs.’
There's no love lost between Buffalo Bills left tackle Dion Dawkins and the New York Jets
‘”These are like some of the hardest games of the season against the Jets, Patriots, and Dolphins, no matter when it is, no matter the order it’s in, they are the hardest games of our season every single year,” Dawkins said. “It’s always great competition, the rivalry is great, the intensity is up, and I like to think and live in the aura that we hate each other, and that keeps us going.”‘
MVP meaningful to all the Bills, not just Josh Allen
‘“We’ve seen him as [the MVP] for a long time now, but I think it would mean a lot to the guys in here that he’s finally getting recognized for it,” said tight end Dawson Knox. “Especially the offensive line. They work their tails off for him. They go under-noticed and under-credited every week.”’
'Time certainly does fly' | Taron Johnson prepares for his 100th game as Bills get set to face NY Jets
‘”He’s been awesome,” QB Josh Allen said. “What he’s done for this football team, and the rock that he is. I wouldn’t say he’s the most vocal guy, but he is a leader on this team. And guys look up to him, the way that he works, the way that he carries himself each and every day in this building, it’s infectious. He’s a great teammate, a great friend… He’s definitely one that helps set the tone when people get here of how to be a Buffalo Bill and got a lot of love and respect for Taron.”‘

Mark Gaughan: The Josh Allen Experience is a blast for Bills' backup QBs
‘“It’s been a lot of fun,” said Trubisky, who has a unique perspective because he served as Allen’s backup in the 2021 season. “It’s been a blessing coming back here, just to be teammates with him and all these guys. It’s a great culture and a great place to come to work every day.”’
