Bills move to 3-0 after bananas game, late touchdown vs. Rams

‘The Bills get moving, but another Allen sack leads to third and 22. A scrambling throw to Beasley converts the first down for a gain of 23 to keep the drive alive and continue making this game more amazing than the play before. After Allen commits a facemask to set up 3rd and 25, the Bills convert with some help from the officials. A 16 yard pass to Beasley made it 4th and 9. The Rams were then called for pass interference against Davis. It was an incredibly questionable call, but maybe makes up for the interception call earlier. The Bills scored on the next play with a diving TD catch by Kroft. It gives the Bills the lead with 15 seconds to play.’

Tyler Kroft comes up clutch in Bills win over Rams

‘“You talk about Tyler Kroft, you talk about one hell of a dude,” said center Mitch Morse. “A guy who kind of had a B.S. deal given to him the first year, with injury and a guy who has taken everything with grace. A guy who’s only mentality was to take it day-by-day and come be the best player he can be.”’

Bills find wins in ways other teams can’t possibly imagine

‘It’s hard to frame this win because we don’t yet know what the Rams will be. If L.A. starts 8-1 while piling up 30 point weeks with the L.A. team we saw in the second half, then this game gets chalked up to a pretty good Bills team surviving an inevitable onslaught. If the Rams start dropping games and getting hammered like the L.A. team we saw in the first half, then there are many concerns with the Bills.’

Jerry Hughes: “This team is different”

‘Today, he says you can see how things have changed. Hughes watched his team give up 29 straight points to the Rams, only to see Josh Allen and company fight back to get the win. Hughes says, “It’s different now.”‘

Lesson learned: Allen used playoff loss for Rams win

‘”I took a lot from that game,” said Allen. “I wasn’t trying to force the ball into the endzone. I was taking what they were giving us. I knew we had time. I wasn’t trying to panic. Especially in that situation, they look to the quarterback to be cool and calm. That’s what I was trying to be.”‘

The ‘Josh Allen experience’ reaches new heights

‘Just when it seemed like the Bills had no chance to win, Allen completed a 3rd and 22 to Cole Beasley. He then capped off his 10th fourth-quarter comeback with his second touchdown pass of the day to his back up tight end.’

‘Allen is one of the most exciting and interesting players in the NFL. He has the big arm. He can move. He is not afraid to run over a defender. But unfortunately for Bills fans, the hero ball Josh is also great drama. His second half alone had more fascinating plays that many quarterbacks have in a season. On the final drive alone he converted on a 3rd and 22, got a facemark penalty while he was being sacked and threw the game winning touchdown pass. The networks will be loving Josh for a while.’

Bills stay perfect with an imperfect game, beating Rams 35-32

‘With the win, the Bills stay perfect on the year, although it was far from a perfect game. Iffy refereeing and some key mistakes allowed the visiting Rams to nearly pull off what would have been one of if not the largest collapse in Bills history.’

‘Buffalo’s quarterback staged a game-winning drive of improbable proportions that included overcoming 3rd-and-22 and 3rd-and-25 situations along with a fourth-and-goal to win the game on a pass to Tyler Kroft from the three-yard line with 15 seconds left in regulation.’

‘It was a good day to be a Bills tight end. Both Lee Smith and Tyler Kroft scored their first touchdowns of the season. Smith caught the Bills first touchdown of the game and his first since Week 5 of last season. Kroft caught two three-yard touchdown passes from Allen, one in the second quarter and one in the fourth to win the game for the Bills. Kroft caught the game-winner on Dec. 15, 2019 in Pittsburgh to beat the Steelers.’

What Sean McDermott, Jerry Hughes + others said about Buffalo’s 3-0 start to the season

‘”The fight, it’s the fight in the guys, no matter who’s taking the field. Whether it’s special teams, offense, or defense, you got 11 guys who are going out there to play. We don’t have our 12th man right now cheering us on, so we bring that energy and we are coming to fight for all four quarters. Just the way that Brandon Beane and Coach McDermott come together to find guys who are that competitive. It’s fun to watch all of this come together.”‘

‘These guys are dogs’ | An inside look into the game-winning drive

‘”I mean, I’m cool with that. The guy wants to win. He’s got a lot of fire in him and that spreads throughout the team. We feel that. Any time you’ve got a guy like that, you’re going to run through a wall for him. I mean, he’s a dog. You love that out of a quarterback because there’s not many quarterbacks like that. A lot of them shy away from the physicality of the game and he does not. He’s just a baller and a grinder. We’ll put everything on the line for him. I’ll put my body on the line for him because I know he’ll do the same.”‘
