‘But one area where the Bills have struggled to get going is with Diggs. The team’s clear No. 1 receiver has not had a 100-yard receiving performance since Week 6 against the Giants. Through his first six games, Diggs caught 49 of 66 targets for 620 yards (103.3 per game), five touchdowns and two drops, numbers that were on pace for career highs. In his past seven games, Diggs has caught 38 of 66 targets for 373 yards for three touchdowns with five drops.’

Cowboys' Micah Parsons likens Josh Allen's play style to a 'crazy frat guy,' expects Bills QB's very best
‘”Obviously, Josh, you have to put him in a different space because he was a cover of Madden,” Parsons said Thursday. “He’s up there with the greats. So I never told Josh this, but I’m a little jealous because he was on the cover of Madden. I think growing up I think that’s everyone’s dream.”‘
Bills defense to be without Micah Hyde, A.J. Epenesa in Week 15 vs. Cowboys, per Sean McDermott
‘Hyde previously missed one game this season — Buffalo’s 24-22 loss to the Broncos back in Week 10. He had otherwise played 80% of the team’s snaps or more in every game before getting injured this past weekend against Kansas City. He is an extremely important piece on the back end of Buffalo’s defense, and an especially important one in the wake of all the injuries the Bills have dealt with this season on the second and third levels.’

McDermott: Prescott, Cowboys offense playing with clarity
‘”Credit to coach [Mike] McCarthy and Brian Schottenheimer, their offensive coordinator. It looks like [Prescott’s] playing with just more clarity. Maybe they’re keeping it simpler for them, I don’t really know,” said McDermott during his weekly appearance on the “Extra Point Show” on WGR. “He just seems like he’s more comfortable in the system or comfortable in the pocket, knowing where he wants to go with the ball. Then on top of that, he uses his legs well when he needs to – third downs and red zone, two-minute, in particular.”‘
Micah Parsons compares Josh Allen to 'that one crazy guy at the frat' ahead of Bills-Cowboys showdown
‘”Josh reminds me a lot of that one crazy guy at the frat. I probably would have hated to meet Josh in college. He’s the one that makes his friends get all the way drunk and you just be like ‘Ah, I ain’t going out with this guy,'” Parsons joked. “He just does anything. He’s that wild dude on the field. He wants to dip his shoulder, he’s going to talk trash, and he’s going to get rowdy. You shoot the beer pong and he ace the cup and it’s on and popping. I would love to have a bar and grill out with Josh, for sure. Just not this week.”‘

Inside the Bills: How Stefon Diggs is still contributing despite a recent dip in production
‘Although Diggs hasn’t put up huge numbers, there have been positives for the offense the last four games, three of which have come under interim offensive coordinator Joe Brady, who took over for Ken Dorsey after the loss to the Denver Broncos in Week 10.

‘“Somebody made a big hit and I was running to the ball and they ran into my ankle,” Elam said. “It was just one of those things. I was competing for a starting spot and doing so well, I didn’t want to sit down. They didn’t put me on (injured reserve), and I just had to keep battling through.”’
