'RB LeSean McCoy has four TDs in last two games against Falcons.'

'“I try to take the good things from everybody,” he tells me. “Obviously, you're going to have staples of your game no matter what they are, and my work ethic and the way that I practice I hope is a staple. And then I use input from the coaches, whether it's Bill Kollar, who was my first one, to Coach Waufle now, use the input into my game and how to improve it. I try to take all the good things from all of them.”'

'White is just the third Bills rookie cornerback to be honored as Defensive Rookie of the Month. Leodis McKelvin was the first to be honored in November of 2008, and Ronald Darby was given the honor in September of 2015.'

'“I know that I belong in this league,” said White. “If I continue to take that approach and continue to practice hard like I do and continue to be a team player and accept the coaching, I’ll be fine.”'

'The Bills may be the toughest test thus far for the Falcons, but it will certainly be the toughest test so far for Buffalo as well.'

'"Like I texted him, he said some things to the media that he probably could have said to me, but it doesn't really matter to me," McCoy told reporters. "I like Jim Kelly. He texted me and I just told him, 'Hey, you're human. People have their own opinions. And what you said? You don't have to apologize for it. I don't think you're wrong. That's how you felt, I understand. You're human.''

'"It's something I can teach my kids someday," Hyde said Wednesday after practice with the Bills. "It's about feeding your family. I'm not going to say I'm an expert at gardening, but I have the basic fundamentals of how to start. No matter how much money you have, no matter how poor you are, you can always feed your family."'

'“We’ve touched the subject a little bit, a little bit of common ground,” McDermott said Wednesday. “Two years ago I was in a similar position, the game was slightly different, albeit like all games are. Last year, with his experience, there’s a lot we can learn from those experiences, of being in big games and what we learn from those situations. We’ve touched the subject, with respect to that as well, ‘hey, what would you have done differently, in terms of as a team, what was said.’'

'"Dan was one of those coaches that just had it," McDermott said. "He had a great way with players. Having that great way with players, he still had a tough-minded approach to the game, which being a defensive player and then defensive coach, and head coach now, I really appreciated.'

'Injury wise, injury updates, the following players will not practice starting with Cordy Glenn still with the foot and ankle. Kyle Williams will not practice, as well as Lorenzo Alexander due to scheduled rest days. Marcell Dareus will be limited in practice, and Jerel Worthy is out of the concussion protocol at this time. Finally, congratulations to Stephen Hauschka, the AFC special teams player of the week, for a tremendous effort in last week’s game against Denver.'

'The Falcons announced that single-game tickets and standing room-only tickets will go on sale at 9 a.m. Friday on a first-come, first-served basis at the guest services desk inside Game 2 of the new Mercedes-Benz Stadium.'

'"There are a lot of issues that are really important to talk about, and we’ll spend some time and we have as a team talking through some of those.”'

'"Man-to-man against the league’s top receiver is super aggressive and not highly advised."'
