Bills’ quarterback Josh Allen on ‘cloud nine’ over trade for Stefon Diggs
‘“It means a lot. He’s my new teammate so if he’s got that much faith in me, I’ve got all the faith in the world in his ability and what he can do,’’ he said. “Now it’s time to start jelling, that will come with time, but the sooner we can start the better.’’’
5 thoughts and a grade on Buffalo Bills signing OL Daryl Williams
‘The Bills liked what they got out of veteran swing tackle Ty Nsekhe in a time share at right tackle with Ford in 2019. But he’ll turn 35 years old in 2020 and battled some nagging injuries last season. Nsekhe makes sense as a part time plug at right tackle but now with Williams in the mix, the two can take over the position full time and Ford could swing inside, where many analysts believe he’ll be better as a pro.’
Buffalo Bills’ Josh Allen self-quarantined with Jets’ Sam Darnold, Washington’s Kyle Allen during coronavirus pandemic
‘Josh Allen, Kyle Allen and Darnold are three of seven people living in close quarters. Josh and Kyle Allen are staying in one house along with their significant others while Darnold is nearby in his own house. Quarterback guru Jordan Palmer and former USC safety Matt Lopes round out the group.’
Bills’ Dean Marlowe on ‘crazy’ Buffalo to Carolina free agent pipeline: ‘They all know what it takes to win’
‘“We (texted and) just said, ‘Let’s get to work. That old work.’ Just what we know and what we do,” Marlowe said. “I was a little puppy when we (played together). … It’s kind of like we all have the same mindset. We’re all for each other and we all know what hard work is and what it takes to win. (We know) what it takes to make a great team. The guys coming in here are going to fit fine with the culture we have.”’
Buffalo Bills will host and win at least one playoff game in 2020, says Adam Schein
‘The Bills are going to take the AFC East and win at least one home playoff game. Don’t believe me? Well, a year ago around this time, I predicted Buffalo would be the 2019 season’s Cinderella team — and they proceeded to post their best record of this millennium (10-6) and hit the postseason. So I think I’ve earned some trust in this area. And this Diggs deal has me channeling my inner Joe Namath once again.’
Josh Allen says he’s ‘floating on cloud nine’ after Bills trade for Stefon Diggs
‘Bringing in Diggs as the No. 1 receiver allows both Brown and Beasley to move into slightly more complementary roles. Brown will now likely be freed to work one-on-one on the outside, while Beasley will have even more space to operate in the underneath areas of the field. Add in the dynamism of Devin Singletary as a pass-catcher out of the backfield, and Allen is being placed in far better position to succeed heading into the third year of his career than he was as a rookie. He still has a ways to go before he’s anywhere close to being the type of quarterback who can overcome any deficiencies in his surroundings, so good on the Bills for making sure he has everything he needs while they’re able to spend enough to afford it.’
The Bills are in a Super Bowl window
‘For the first time in my adult life, uttering those words aren’t for the retweets or for the sake of scorching hot takes. Which means we’re going to have a serious conversation about the Bills entering the 2020 season with similar or better Super Bowls odds than the Green Bay Packers, Pittsburgh Steelers, Seattle Seahawks and Philadelphia Eagles.’
