Bills Today | Josh Allen explains what it takes to improve as a quarterback

‘”They definitely both present their challenges. Physically just reverting to old habits, and making sure you’re staying on top of your mechanics and everything sequencing correctly. I got a guy Chris who owns Biometrics that came out last week. I did some more digital mapping of my mechanics. Just making sure I’m staying on top of that and allowing my muscle memory to kind of take that in and stop reverting back to old ways. As far as mentality or understanding defenses, and really understanding how the league goes that’s just kind of going on with repetition. The more that you play, the more that you’re around, the more that you learn. It’s a fun process to be a part of. Again, it’s asking questions that might make you feel uncomfortable, but making sure that you’re learning everything you need to know and trusting your coaches like I said, is really the main thing for the mental aspect of the game.”‘

Bills 2021 mandatory minicamp storylines to watch

‘If you go back and look at what Buffalo has done each season under McDermott and Brandon Beane, there’s always been a veteran cornerback in the mix. This year it looks like the Bills are trusting in fourth-year cornerback Levi Wallace to serve in that role as he competes for that starter job again. His main threat is second-year CB Dane Jackson, who has been solid once again during OTAs. He made big plays when his number was called last season and Beane and the Bills have taken notice.’

Bills minicamp will be last tune-up before training camp

‘These minicamp practices will provide a chance for the entire offensive and defensive units to be on the field and everyone working together again for the first time since their AFC Championship loss to the Kansas City Chiefs back on Jan. 24.’

Daboll discusses NFL interviews, O-Line and backs

‘Daboll: “Playing well is the biggest thing, but continuity and communication does help. You can have something come up from a year-and-a-half ago in a particular game when you made an adjustment and had a different call and you can draw from those experiences. It’s the same with a coaching staff that’s been there for a while … it’s different than the first year, or the second, when you’re just getting together. It’s the five guys (on the offensive front) who are playing the best and working the best together (who play).”’

Bills Today | Brian Daboll recognized as one of the top offensive playcallers

‘Josh Allen’s emergence was one of the most fun storylines of the 2020 season, with the Bills generating the second-most points in football despite playing their home games in cold weather, and in a division with good defenses in Miami and New England. Stefon Diggs went from a really good wide receiver to a player who led the league in receiving yards, while mid-round UCF prospect Gabriel Davis added seven touchdowns from his WR4 spot. Daboll should be on the shortlist for head coaching positions next offseason if the Bills continue ascending in a crowded AFC.’

Bills Mailbag: How many quarterbacks should be kept on the 53-man roster?

‘The point about Webb being a valuable member of the organization, even as a practice-squad player, is a good one. The team likes the knowledge and leadership he brings to the quarterback room. He’s competing with Fromm for the No. 3 quarterback role. Whoever wins it will have to do so by convincing the coaching staff that keeping three quarterbacks on the active roster gives the team a better chance than, say, keeping seven wide receivers instead of six, or 10 offensive linemen instead of nine. It might be an uphill climb for both of them.’

Josh Allen, Tanner Gentry, Jacob Hollister basking in reunion with Bills

‘“I remember him showing me his highlight tape, one of the things being a sick hurdle,” Hollister said before being cut off by Allen, who shouted “loser” and then apologized for the interruption. “Right then and now I was like, ‘How are we the only team that’s offered this kid?’’
