‘With his wife, Fran, their daughter, Kimberly, and 7-year-old grandson, Georgey, looking on from a suite, Levy took the field, and the microphone, and granted some 60,000 fans the same experience his own teams had in the locker room just a short jog up the tunnel.’

Bills nearly flawless in slaughter of the Titans on Monday Night Football
‘The Titans have just been a physically tough matchup with their powerful ground game and stout defense. That is, until Monday night as the Bills ran them out of the stadium in a memorable home opener that featured yet another virtuoso performance from the firm of Josh Allen and Stefon Diggs, and a dominant defensive effort that throttled Derrick Henry and forced four turnovers.’
Josh Allen and Stefon Diggs unstoppable, Bills’ defense overcomes injuries to whip Titans
‘The Bills have been one of the most fortunate teams in the NFL the past two years when it comes to injuries, but these things always seem to even out and two weeks into a season filled with Super Bowl aspirations, the Bills are already facing some trouble.’
Jackson’s injury taints impressive Buffalo victory
‘Those losses left Buffalo with Jackson and rookie draft choices Kaiir Elam (first round) and Christian Benford (sixth) as the top three corners until White returns, with Cam Lewis and kicking team specialist Siran Neal in reserve. Buffalo also has two rookie corners on the practice squad, Kyler McMichael and Ja’Marcus Ingram.’
After blowing out Titans, Von Miller says Bills aren’t just playing to win: ‘We got a team full of killers’
‘Determined to flip the story, the Bills responded to that first score by clamping down so hard on Henry and the Titans offense that it didn’t score another point the rest of the game. Tennessee had 10 more possessions in the game and punted six times, Ryan Tannehill threw two interceptions and it lost a fumble late in the fourth quarter.’
Stefon Diggs destroys Titans in 3-TD explosion to lead Bills on Monday Night Football
‘Allen targeted his All Pro receiver 14 times and Diggs came away with 12 catches for 148 yards. Only Tyreek Hill (284) has more receiving yards through two weeks of the season. Diggs leads the NFL in touchdowns (4). According to ESPN Stats & Info, Diggs is the first player since Steve Smith in 2007 with at least 250 receiving yards and four touchdowns in his team’s first two games.’
Bills’ Dane Jackson leaves game vs. Titans in ambulance after scary hit to neck area
‘Jackson, who was down for about five minutes before he was placed on a stretcher, left the field in an ambulance to cheers from fans in attendance at Highmark Stadium. Jackson was taken to ECMC for further evaluation following what the team said was a neck injury. He’ll get a CT scan and an X-ray, but the team added that he has full movement in his extremities.’

‘It was an uneven night for the backs, but there were some positives for each back and the fullback.’
Bills embarrass Titans; Allen, Diggs put on exciting show in front of sellout crowd in home opener
‘A few other Bills injuries put a damper on an otherwise celebratory night in Orchard Park, with veteran defensive players Micah Hyde (neck), Matt Milano (stinger) and Jordan Phillips (hamstring) all leaving the game during the second half and not returning.’
Five Takeaways: Allen, Diggs propel Bills to dominant revenge victory over Titans; Injuries piling up
‘It was another showcase effort for Allen, Diggs and the Buffalo aerial attack, which lit up Tennessee in front of a capacity crowd inside Highmark Stadium. After scuffling a bit out of the gate defensively, the Bills settled in and found their rhythm against an undermanned Titans team that had no answers for Allen, Diggs and the list of other receivers at the Bills quarterbacks’ disposal.’
Sullivan: Stefon Diggs transcendent again in prime time
‘Perhaps this is what he had in mind. On Monday night, before a national TV audience, Diggs had an utterly dominating performance, one of those games when he seemed to be playing on an altogether different level from the hapless Tennessee players who tried to cover him.’
