Jim Kubiak: Bills QB Josh Allen’s success in empty formations another key sign of growth
‘Allen played even, smart, and was acutely aware of situations through most of the game. Ultimately, he made intelligent decisions with the football for his fourth 300-yard passing day of the season and had his highest rushing total since Week 1.

Daryl Worley: 4 reasons Bills should look to reunite Cowboys CB with Sean McDermott
‘Sean McDermott and Brandon Beane both played a role in drafting Daryl Worley in the third round back in 2016. In what should come as no surprise, Worley’s best play in the NFL came in that season under McDermott. Buffalo’s head coach praised Worley’s growth on the field as a rookie.’
Could Buffalo ‘D’ be turning a corner? McDermott pleased with defensive effort against the Jets
‘“I like how the pieces fit together yesterday in terms of the rush complementing the coverage and the coverage complementing the rush,” said the Bills’ head coach. “And what we were able to do against the run in the second half was key also.”’
Bills Activate Guard Jon Feliciano Off Injured Reserve
‘Feliciano started 16 games at right guard last season, and was expected to retain the job before he was hurt while working out on his own before the start of training camp. He resumed practicing with the team a few weeks ago.’
Bill Belichick noticed one big improvement in Josh Allen from last season, and here’s what it is
‘”Now, he’s still a dangerous runner – I’m not saying that. He can run and he does run, but I think he’s become more patient and just does a better job of dealing with outlet receivers in the coverage or secondary receivers in the pattern than he did. As he gained experience, I think that’s to be expected of any good quarterback like that. So, he can certainly make all the throws. He’s got a great arm and he can run, he’s athletic, he’s hard to tackle. But, I’d say his overall execution in the passing game has improved each of the last three years.”‘

McDermott: Milano did a good job in limited role on Sunday
‘“We just have to see,” McDermott said of Milano’s status for this week. “He’s coming off a pretty significant injury there, but I thought he did a good job. Mentally he was in a good spot today and we’ll just see how it goes throughout the rest of the week here.”’
Bill Belichick explains how Josh Allen has taken his game to another level
‘”I think that Josh [Allen] does a good job of going to some of the secondary outlet receivers based on the coverage, where that takes him and if it’s open he’ll throw it for sure, and if it isn’t then he’s, I would say, not as quick to pull the ball down to run. He finds secondary receivers and outlets, check downs, and that kind of thing.”‘
Opinion: Bills have chance to finally start burying the Patriots
‘Even before the 2020 season started, the stated goal of the Bills, from general manager Brandon Beane to head coach Sean McDermott, down to the players, was to win the division, because that’s how they’ll get a home playoff game. Whenever they mentioned it, they also specifically referenced beating the Patriots. The standard. The team that’s owned the AFC East for the last 20 years. It’s still theirs until the Bills take it from them, Beane and others said. They’re right.’
Opinion: Bills vs. The Coaches
‘Belichick’s 35 wins over the Bills are only tied for the most against the team. Don Shula had the same 35 wins, against 20 losses. The only other coaches to beat the Bills 10 or more times go back to the AFL days of the 1960s: Sid Gillman (11) and Hank Stram (10).’
