Did Sunday’s play earn Duke Williams, T.J. Yeldon another chance in postseason?

‘A former Auburn standout and an all-star in the Canadian Football League last year, Williams’ NFL career consisted of three games in October before Sunday. A Mr. Football winner at Daphne High School before playing at Alabama, Yeldon joined the Bills as a free agent in March after four seasons with the Jacksonville Jaguars — the first two as a starter. But he hadn’t played since Oct. 6.’

Buffalo’s ageless Frank Gore: the bell-cow back who’s doing the impossible

‘That Gore should feature prominently in these epic milestones – and not, say, former Chiefs dynamo Jamaal Charles or former Titans dazzler Chris Johnson or former St. Louis Ram bruiser Steven Jackson – beggars belief.

‘When quarterback Josh Allen does well, the Bills typically do, too. Look at Allen’s numbers in the 10 victories Buffalo posted (64.9 % completion rate, 7.4 yards per attempt, 15 touchdowns, six interceptions, 95.9 QB rating) compared to his numbers in Buffalo’s six losses (48.6 % completion rate, 5.5 yards per attempt, five touchdowns, three interceptions, 67.8 QB rating). Obviously, a quarterback’s performance is a big predictor of success in any given game, but if Allen is able to find checkdowns and avoid forcing throws, the Bills’ chances of pulling off the upset should be much higher.’

Buffalo-Houston Playoff Matchup Conjures ‘Comeback’ Memories

‘Texans coach Bill O’Brien steered clear of any questions regarding the past. “Oh, man, that was 30 years ago almost. Holy smokes,” he said. “I think this is about this week, and this is about the Houston Texans versus a very, very good Buffalo Bills team. So I’m not going down that road.”‘
