Jim Kubiak: What stood out about Bills’ QB against Browns

‘The smoke from this hype quickly dissipated as rookie Josh Allen emerged, leading the Bills franchise like an experienced veteran. Nathan Peterman proved his value, finishing strong with an 8 for 8 fourth quarter in Buffalo’s first win of the preseason. The Bills overall QB grade was 94 percent, collectively going 20-for-29 or 172 yards with two touchdowns and zero interceptions.’

Inside the Bills: How ‘Embedded’ came to be

‘The idea for the show came from the footage the team shot from the victorious locker room in Week 17 of the 2017 season in Miami. Assuming the Bills beat the Dolphins, there was a chance they could end a 17-season playoff drought. Camera crews were set up in South Florida, at (716) Food and Sport and in New York City, where the Sabres were preparing to play in the Winter Classic.’

Bills vs. Browns was highest-rated program of summer

‘The Buffalo Bills’ 19-17 victory over the Cleveland Browns led by quarterbacks Allen and Nathan Peterman had a 23.8 rating on WKBW-TV (Channel 7) from 7:30 p.m. to 10:45 p.m., making it easily the highest-rated program of the summer here.’

Bengals’ Andy Dalton: An improbable hero to a devoted Bills fanbase

‘”Things just work in an odd way,” Boyd said. “God set things up for a reason. I’m thankful to make the play for our team, first of all. But second of all, it helped a lot because it showed how much respect (Bills fans) had towards me and Andy because of that play. They stood by us and congratulated us, because we did something to help them do something that they haven’t done in a long time.”‘

Josh Allen should get start for Buffalo Bills in third preseason game

‘A quick scan of the veterans available includes Derek Anderson, Mark Sanchez, Matt Moore, Scott Tolzien, Christian Hackenberg, Mark Sanchez, Kellen Clemens, Josh Johnson, and T.J. Yates among others. That’s flat out depressing, but if the Bills were planning to carry three quarterbacks into the regular season, they may have to consider one of these players.’

Jordan Poyer says Buffalo Bills defense settled down after bad start

‘”(We need to be) more disciplined, being more disciplined in our gaps, shedding blocks and then tackling,” Poyer told NYup.com after the game. “Tackling, for me anyway, tackling was a huge deal. I need to continue to work on it and continue to pride myself on getting better.”‘

ESPN’s Darren Woodson: Buffalo Bills QB Josh Allen ‘destined to be an absolute superstar’

‘”Josh Allen’s play absolutely jumped out at me today,” Woodson said on SportsCenter. “The one thing you know about him is his arm’s electric. He’s a big-time football player. A big-time athlete that can run around the outside of the pocket. He can sit in the pocket. He can make every throw on the football field. He needs more reps. Once he gets those reps, this kid is destined to be an absolute superstar.”‘

13 Buffalo Bills who helped or hurt themselves against Cleveland Browns

‘You can put Marcus Murphy’s name in Sharpie when writing out your 53-man roster projections. Murphy continued to run the ball well in Buffalo’s offense. The back finished the second preseason game with 39 yards on four carries. In addition to running the ball well, Murphy showed what he could do on special teams by returning one punt for 39 yards.’
