‘Nothing is out of reach, to say the least, but it did just get harder.’
Buffalo Bills announce TE Dawson Knox suffered fracture of his hand in loss to Titans
‘Knox was a big player in the team’s 2-pt conversion in Monday night’s second half in which he threw a pass to QB Josh Allen that put them up 31-24 late in the 3rd quarter. Knox left the game right after that play and didn’t return with the hand injury. After the game, Allen said he initially didn’t want that play to happen.’
Dawson Knox dealing with broken hand as Bills hit the bye week
‘Knox left Monday night’s game against the Titans with a hand injury late in the third quarter and did not return. He’s now dealing with a broken bone in his right hand but the timetable for his recover is still up in the air.’
Why losing before the bye week is good for Bills
‘FIve of their next six games are against teams currently with a losing record, and the team with the winning record, New Orleans, is 3-2. So a loss like this could galvanize the team like it did a year ago, and they could very well come back and rattle off six straight wins to climb to a 10-2 record.’
Buffalo Common Council: Build Bills Stadium Downtown
‘“If you’re a Buffalo elected official and you’re not cheering for the Bills to be in Buffalo, what are you doing?” asked Councilmember Rasheed Wyatt, who introduced the resolution. “We made a mistake some years ago by letting the Bills go to Orchard Park. The economic base that the Bills can bring and the businesses impact downtown could be off the chart.”’
Bills reminded Super Bowl run won’t come easy
‘Not only did I think going for it on fourth down with the right call, I think 32 of 32 NFL head coaches would agree. In fact, any head coach that would try a field goal in that spot should be fired the moment the ball went through the uprights. Especially in this game, where the Bills defense had failed over and over. Kicking a field goal means leaving the win in the hands of Lady Luck. If the Bills lose the overtime coin toss, there’s a good chance they would have never seen the ball again.’

3 things we learned from Sean McDermott heading into the 2021 bye week
‘”And then offensively, for the amount of time we were going backwards, meaning pass setting, I thought for the majority of time we gave our quarterback time to deliver unaffected, but there were moments where we were affected in the passing game. There were other moments where I thought we could have moved the line of scrimmage more in the running game, especially against some of the looks we were given there. So again, improvement for this week as work and then next week as well.”‘

‘Get through it and march on’ | Bills aim to use loss as motivation after the bye week
‘”I think it’s a double-edged sword,” Morse said. … “We get extra time to work on what we need to work on. At the same time, that bad taste is going to be our mouth a little bit longer than we’d like. … But we’ll get through it and march on. This team is resilient.”‘
Bills set points scored record for first six games + other numbers to know from Week 6
‘203 – After putting up 31 points on Monday night, the Bills now have 203 points scored on the season. It’s a club record for the six games to start a season breaking the mark of 200 set by the 1964 AFL Champion Bills.’
Bills peak at No. 2 in NFL power rankings | Week 7
‘With the way the Bills played against the Steelers to start the season, the initial rating seemed spot-on. Since then, Buffalo has played like one of the best teams in the NFL, winning every game outside of Monday night’s loss to the Titans. Honestly, Buffalo’s rating could be higher, especially after the way the win in Kansas City went. This team has an incredibly high ceiling, and the confidence will only increase as it fixes the issues that were on display in Tennessee. The Bills still have the potential to be the best team in the AFC, if not the league.’
