Bills Today | Why Colin Cowherd thinks Buffalo is the best team in the NFL
‘”Their defense leads the NFL by a mile in fourth quarter takeaways, so they’re playing great situational football. Since Week 9 they score more than the Chiefs, they have more touchdowns to interceptions ratio that’s better, their point differential is better, their turnover differential is better and they’ve got fewer penalties in the last three weeks. This morning, Buffalo is the best football team in the NFL.”‘
Beane was right about Allen, Diggs
‘Allen’s struggles seemed an indictment of Beane and McDermott, who traded up twice to take a non-Power 5 conference QB at No. 7 overall in 2018. But both stuck with their quarterback even as “experts” suggested the selection could be “career suicide.” And this year, they were vindicated.’

Position grades: DBs continue Bills’ takeaway trend
‘Defensive backs (5.0): Johnson’s pickoff changed the game and was the big play of his three-year career. Wallace was beaten for a 19-yard TD by James Washington on a skinny post route. It was a good route and a sharp pass into a tight window by Roethlisberger. But Wallace also had two pass breakups, and made a good reaction to the ball in the air on his interception. Roethlisberger was just a tad late recognizing where to go with the pass, another example of the good coverage disguising by safeties Jordan Poyer and Micah Hyde. Roethlisberger did not complete a pass longer than 20 yards. Tre’Davious White had textbook deep coverage early on an incompletion for Chase Claypool and made a heads-up play to bat down a third-down pass near the line. White and Siran Neal got picked on the fourth-quarter TD pass to JuJu Smith-Schuster.’

He’s come in and he just continues to outperform, outshine and prove to us day in and day out that he’s a different guy and he’s our guy.”’

Next task for Broncos’ depleted secondary: On short week, prepare for Josh Allen, Bills’ high-powered passing attack
‘After a rocky rookie season in which he was 5-6 in 11 starts, Allen took a huge step forward last season in leading the Bills to an AFC wild card berth.
