Report: Jon Bon Jovi says world would be ‘better off’ if Trump bought the Buffalo Bills
‘“I was really shocked at the depths [Trump] went to. He wasn’t even qualified to buy the team, because you have to submit your tax returns, and he never filed the paperwork. Instead, he did this dark shadow assassination thing, hoping to buy the team at a bargain basement price. But I just couldn’t understand how this misinformation was being put out there. It was seriously scarring,” Bon Jovi told The Guardian.’
McDermott reflects on 2020 season
‘”Here’s what I know from experience,” McDermott said. “If you sit here and say, ‘All we need to do is this much more to make it to the Super Bowl,’ you’re wrong. You gotta start over. Yes, you carry a lot of things over, but every year you gotta start over. You gotta rebuild the football team. You gotta grow as an individual. You gotta take it upon yourself just because we had success to ask yourself the hard questions. You gotta take the growth mindset approach. That’s what you do when you’re a winner. That’s what you do when you’re hungry to be the best, and that’s what we’re gonna continue to do as long as I’m the head coach here. You gotta do that.”‘
Bills find franchise quarterback in Josh Allen
‘”Josh Allen is a very good quarterback and one we can win with in years to come,” Head Coach Sean McDermott said. “Josh’s development this season was a huge step in our growth as a team, was a huge step in his growth as a player on and off the field. I bet if you pulled anyone inside this building, in particular, you’d get a unanimous vote that Josh Allen certainly proved himself and what he can do. Does that mean he’s perfect? No. Does that mean he has work to do? Yes. Just like all of us.”‘
10 things we learned from Sean McDermott’s final press conference of the 2020 season
‘”We accomplished a lot,” McDermott said. “We won a division, won 13 games, hosted and won two playoff games. There’s one game after the game that we just played. Do we make it a goal to make it to the AFC Championship Game? No. The goal is to win the World Championship. So we came up short, disappointed in that but extremely grateful for what we were able to accomplish this season. Believe me, we’re going back to work. We’re already back at work to assess where we are and how we can move our team forward. I feel good about what we’ve done, not satisfied.”‘
