‘This makes two times that an opponent stood up to the Bills and whipped them in the fourth quarter. The Steelers did it in the opener, scoring 17 points in the final quarter of a 23-16 upset. And the Titans did it Monday night, outscoring the Bills, 10-0, in the fourth for the win.’

Jim Shultz: The real super powers of the Buffalo Bills
‘When Bills fans talk with one another about their team, no one cares if the other fan voted for Biden or Trump. They don’t care if they carry a vaccination card in their pocket or an NRA membership.’
Bills Take Step Back After Being Manhandled In Music City
‘The soaring expectations of over-reaction Monday following last week’s convincing win over one Buffalo nemesis, the Kansas City Chiefs, gave way to the deadening thud of over-reaction Tuesday, after the Bills were pushed around in a 34-31 loss to another nemesis, the Titans.’
Buffalo Bills say TE Dawson Knox fractured hand in loss to Tennessee Titans
‘There is not significant concern over the injury, and Knox will be aided by the Bills being on their bye week before a Week 8 matchup with the Miami Dolphins. All three of Buffalo’s next opponents have only one win apiece (Dolphins, Jaguars and Jets).’
Bills’ Dawson Knox suffers fractured bone in hand in Week 6 loss to Titans, per report
‘Knox suffered the injury prior to throwing a two-point conversion to Allen with 31 seconds remaining in the third quarter, giving the Bills a seven-point lead at the time.

Report: Dawson Knox broke bone in his hand
‘Garafolo does note that the Bills hope Knox will not miss much time, especially with the bye week coming up for Buffalo, but a timeline for a possible return is still not known at this time.’

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.’
