5 reasons Bills fans say they are rooting for Tom Brady

‘I get this. The Chiefs beat the Bills twice during Buffalo’s best season in 20 years. They beat them in the AFC Championship game and they did it in a cocky and arrogant way with cheap shots the entire night. Right now the Chiefs are the mountain the Bills have to scale in the AFC.’

Brian Daboll named AP’s assistant coach of the year

‘The honor sums up a season where the Buffalo Bills exploded on offense. Daboll oversaw a group that helped the team win 15 total games, grabbed an AFC East title and ranked second overall in the NFL averaging 396.4 yards per game. The offensive coordinator coached an offense that drastically increased their points per game average from 19.6 (23rd) points in 2019 to 31.3 (2nd) in 2020.’

Visualizing success keeps Chiefs’ Travis Kelce at top of his game

‘In the Chiefs’ two playoff wins that advanced them to Super Bowl LV on Sunday against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Kelce caught 21 passes for 227 yards and three touchdowns. Thirteen of those receptions, for 118 yards and two TDs, came in a 38-24 victory against the Buffalo Bills in the AFC championship game that set the stage for Kansas City to try to capture back-to-back Lombardi trophies.’

Three matchups to watch for Chiefs vs. Bucs in Super Bowl LV

‘Pierre-Paul, 32, had 9.5 sacks this year and has 89 in his 11-year career. He’s a prototypical edge rusher, at 6-foot-5 and 275 pounds. Barrett, 28, is just 6-1 and 251. He had only 14 sacks his first five years then came out of relative nowhere to lead the league with 19.5 in 2019. He credits a trip to a “Pass Rush Summit” conducted by ex-Denver teammate Von Miller in the 2018 offseason with expanding his arsenal of moves. Hall-of-Famers Bruce Smith and Warren Sapp attended the camp in the Missouri Ozarks.’

Tyreek Hill: Why Bills’ Justin Zimmer most impressive defensive player he played in 2020

‘“When I caught that ball for 71 yards, I thought number 61 was actually about to clean my clock, which is crazy,” Hill said. “If he would have hit me I probably would have been out for the rest of the year. I probably wouldn’t play football no more. That dude was actually rolling. For him to do that, for a big guy to run all the way down the field. That was great. I’m gonna say him.”’

757 in the Super Bowl: Green Run’s Keith Goganious played for the Buffalo Bills in Super Bowl XXVII and XXVIII

‘“The one thing I’ll never forget was just the fact this was the third time the Bills were going back to the Super Bowl, and my first time. It’s the one game that you always talk about when you’re a kid. I was making sure I was going to bed on time and I listened to players like Bruce Smith (from Norfolk’s Booker T. Washington High), Cornelius Bennett and Darryl Talley about what to do. You want to make sure you’re productive and ready to play that game. And then there’s the awe that came before the kickoff, when you’re standing there looking around and the jets come flying above. Then you’re like, ‘Oh, my God, we’re in the Super Bowl.’ But once the game got going, it was a regular game. I was just blessed to be in that situation. And to be playing in that game with Matt Darby was special. We go all the way back to Brandon Middle School.”’

Do the Bills need to add another running back?

‘In 19 games the Bills played this season, we failed to see either Singletary or Moss emerge as the clear cut starter. Moss was starting to gain some momentum towards the end of the season but missed the Bills final two games after suffering a season-ending injury in the Wild Card round. In 13 games played the Bills rookie running back rushed for 481 yards on 112 attempts [4.3 yards per carry]. Moss added four rushing touchdowns and one receiving touchdown.’

Cole Beasley to be featured in Super Bowl Commercial

‘The ad begins with Beasley and Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa talking about pizza toppings. Beasley defending his love for pineapple on pizza, Tagovailoa disagrees, but then Beasley takes a shot at Tagovailoa saying “It’s as sweet as that feeling of making it to the playoffs.”‘
