Resurgent Bills Narrow In On 1st AFC East Title Since 1995
‘“How exciting would it be to get this thing turned around and host playoff games here?” he added. “That’s been the goal all along. And I think at the end of the day, hopefully, we can get that done this year.”’
Stefon Diggs says he wanted out of Minnesota because the Vikings were too committed to the running game
‘”(The Vikings) were kind of gearing towards a run-heavy (offense) at that time,” Diggs said, per a transcription by The Viking Age. “I didn’t know it going in. I didn’t know it was going to be that way. They only would allow me to do so much. In my eyes, it wasn’t going to be in the best interest of my career.”‘
Bills defense had ‘extra fire’ after catching JuJu Smith-Schuster dancing on logo before win over Steelers
‘”I ain’t going to lie. Seeing them dancing on our logo pre-game and seeing all that, that turns you up a little bit,” Bills defensive back Jordan Poyer said, via Matt Parrino of nyup.com. “It kind of gives you a little second itch to come out and play with some extra fire. We were hyped up on the sideline, we had a big win. And we were just having fun.”‘
MAQB: Revisiting the Bills’ Trade for Stefon Diggs
‘But they’d be getting a guy who was competitive and with a practice intensity that recalled Steve Smith, for the handful of scouts and coaches on the Bills staff who were in Carolina before coming to Buffalo. And as for whether he’d rock the boat, word came back that Diggs could be a problem if you were both losing and he wasn’t seeing the ball, but likely wouldn’t be otherwise. So the Bills added it up, saw their program as ready to invest in that kind of player and person, and it’s fair to say that the leap of faith has paid off handsomely.’
Opinion: Allen continues to set pace for record season in Buffalo
‘However, there was no panic from Allen. He didn’t spiral out of control after a subpar first half. With the help of his offensive teammates, Allen looked like a different quarterback in that second half, as he picked apart that highly-rated Steelers defense. The pass protection was better, and Allen looked to his elite level No. 1 receiver Stefon Diggs to help turn things around. When in doubt, throw it to Diggs is a smart way to operate.’

Opinion: The Big Picture: Bills fans should enjoy the ride and savor the moments

Opinion: Statements! Get your statements here!
‘Less than a week after surgically dismantling Robert Saleh’s much talked about San Francisco 49ers defense, there was Allen again, doing the Steelers in. Just a week ago I was wondering how up to the test Allen would be facing the tough schemes of the 49ers and Steelers.’
“He’s a winner”, Bills CB Levi Wallace bounces back in big way
