A great day at the office for Allen, Bills

‘This Bills team is on pace for 444 points, which would be the second-highest in franchise history. They can score points, and it’s remarkable how they’ve shared the scoring load this season.’

Allen sharing the wealth with receivers: key to Bills wins

‘The Bills are 4-0, averaging 36 points per game, when Allen throws touchdown passes to three or more different receivers. He’s thrown an average of 379 yards per game in those four matchups. In his eight other games, he’s averaged nearly 150 yards less.’

Bills still have trust in rookie Zack Moss after Monday night fumble

‘“The reason you didn’t see him is because we can’t put the ball on the turf like that and expect to win games. Zack had to learn a hard lesson,” said Bills head coach Sean McDermott on Tuesday. “My conversation with Zack was really just more importantly is he able to reset, was he able to reset during the game.”’

Daboll not focused on head coaching rumors

‘Buffalo ranks 10th in yards per game and 8th in points per game. Both massive jumps from last year where they ranked in the bottom third of the NFL in both categories.’

Vic Carucci: Josh Allen spectacular in Bills’ victory over 49ers

‘Mentioning Allen, who had a passer rating of 139.1, in the same sentence as his Hall-of-Fame predecessor is happening with increasing frequency. That’s appropriate because he keeps giving the Bills (9-3) the best quarterbacking they’ve had since Kelly.’

Jason Wolf: Steelers’ loss deprives Bills’ chance for ‘euphoria’

‘It might have been a playoff preview. And it still may. But Pittsburgh’s sudden struggles and 23-17 loss to lowly Washington (5-7) alters the dynamic. Now, the national topic du jour becomes, “What’s wrong with the Steelers?” And it’ll remain so should Buffalo win, rather than a triumph over Pittsburgh being seen as a defining victory. Now, the game against the Bills offers the Steelers an opportunity to prove this hiccup against Washington was a fluke and to “get right” against a likely playoff team.’

Analysis: 49ers’ zone coverage was no match for Josh Allen

‘“Josh has been doing a great job picking defenses apart this year,” Bills receiver Isaiah McKenzie said. “When a defense plays a lot of zone coverage, we have to do our part as receivers to find holes in the zones. It’s kind of hard because you’re not going to get a lot of run after the catch. … But we came to play tonight, and Josh came to play.”’

10 observations: Cole Beasley feasts on a favorable matchup in big Bills’ win

‘Luckily, the receiver was able to return a short time later. That proved to be huge for the Buffalo offense. Beasley entered with a favorable matchup, as the 49ers were without cornerbacks Emmanuel Moseley and K’Waun Williams. That’s after San Francisco put cornerback Jamar Taylor on injured reserve, meaning the 49ers were down to at least their fourth option at the position.’
