Jaguars’ Marcell Dareus on ‘crazy’ Bills fans, beating his old team in playoffs

‘On Bills fans in Jacksonville: “They were going crazy. I love it. They just bring that energy. It was pretty fun. They all came out and showed up and had a great time.”‘

Why Buffalo Bills’ players, fans can find hope in playoff loss to Jaguars

‘”We can play, man,” safety Jordan Poyer said. “We can play with anybody. This team is on the rise. I’m already excited for next season. I want to play next week real bad.”‘

CBS has cancelled the Jags-Bills (National media reactions to AFC Wild Card game)

‘There have been worse NFL playoff games than this. But none immediately jumps to mind.’

Buffalo Bills fans welcome team at airport following AFC Wild Card loss

‘On Sunday night, Bills were were waiting at the Buffalo airport to greet the team following their 10-3 loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars. WGR-550’s Sal Capaccio captured the moment.’

Buffalo Bills vs. Jacksonville Jaguars: LeSean McCoy active; Matt Milano out

‘Meanwhile, Matt Milano, Conor McDermott, John Miller, Brandon Reilly, Khari Lee, Malachi Dupre and Shareece Wright will be inactive for today’s game.’

Meiler: No point dwelling on this Bills loss

‘The upcoming offseason is sure to be interesting. McDermott will almost certainly get rid of Taylor or Dennison, and possibly both. He already showed his lack of faith in Taylor by giving Nathan Peterman a start in a key regular season game, and he hasn’t been shy about lamenting the offense’s inability to get into the end zone.’

Will Tyrod Taylor return? Five questions facing Buffalo Bills entering 2018 offseason

‘Taylor has one year left on his contract. He has been a solid signal caller for the Bills. His ability to extend plays and his deep ball accuracy are strengths. But the overall effectiveness of the passing game is a major question mark. The Bills’ inability to move the ball against the Jaguars was a major reason why they lost. The Bills could bring Taylor back as they groom a future starter. It’s also possible that the Bills will cut Taylor loose and commit to a quarterback they draft in April.’

Buffalo Bills Wild Card Report Card: Jaguars win 10-3 to oust McCoy, Bills from NFL playoffs

‘For all the fans engaged in the Tyrod Taylor vs. Nathan Peterman debate, hopefully this game shows them why neither is the answer at quarterback if the Bills want to do more than be a one-and-done team in the playoffs. Taylor completed less than 50 percent of his passes and was mostly ineffective against the Jaguars’ stingy defense. Outside of LeSean McCoy, no other Bills player had more than 23 receiving yards. The passing game was a liability for most of the season, and Sunday was no exception.’

Drought Relief: Bills fans relish end of 17-year jinx

‘The walls and shelves at Jack Meredith Jr.’s workplace on the border of Geneva and Waterloo are adorned with Bills memorabilia — a miniature replica helmet, a picture of Jim Kelly on the wall and a box of Flutie Flakes, to name a few.’

Bills faithful take chilly plunge

‘The duo was inspired by the Bills Mafia — thousands of Buffalo fans who aren’t afraid to “go a little crazy” for their team.’

Jaguars beat Bills, but holy hell were those quarterbacks bad

‘Ugly? Odoriferous?’

Bills coach vows ‘there’s a lot we can build on’ – and will

‘Sunday’s 10-3 AFC wild-card loss to the Jaguar clearly was still stinging strongest about 20 minutes after the final whistle, but couldn’t McDermott look back with pride and think, yeah, as coaches we wrung out about as much from these players as anybody could?’

Where do the Bills go from here?

‘The questions that have to be answered are mostly on the offensive end, and they start at quarterback.’

Despite injury, solid game for Bills’ LeSean McCoy

‘Buffalo dominated the Jags in the first half, out-gaining them 148-84, making 12 first downs to the Jags’ five and converting five of its first eight third-down situations. The Bills ended the game with the edge in first downs, total offense and time of possession but as McCoy was quick to point out after the game, only one category mattered.’
