Bills’ Von Miller placed on injured reserve with knee injury, sidelining him for at least four games

‘On the decision to place Miller on injured reserve, Bills general manager Brandon Beane said that Miller did not suffer a setback and that the team does not want to rush Miller back into action.”He’s been doing treatment and trying to rehab it,” Beane said, via NFL Media. “The competitor in him — if he could wheel it out there tonight, he would do it. We just think in talking to the medical people that the best decision right now is to give this time, and that gives him the best opportunity to help us down the stretch.”‘

Patriots vs. Bills score, takeaways: Josh Allen, Stefon Diggs cruise past New England to take AFC East lead

‘Second down. Early second quarter. The Patriots had just scored a TD on their previous drive to go up 7-3 and now trailed 10-7 following the Bills’ answer. And then, backed up to their own 8-yard line, they stumbled over themselves. Mac Jones nearly got hit in the end zone for a safety, barely getting rid of the ball beforehand, and Cole Strange was flagged for holding, to make matters worse. The near-turnover, which also saw Jones penalized for roughing the passer, essentially killed the drive but also all of the Pats’ momentum up to that point. Buffalo easily punched the ball in on its ensuing drive with such good field position, quickly taking a 10-point advantage that would keep them in front.’

Bills dominate Patriots, earn first division win of season

‘The Bills offense got rumbling on the ground game on their next drive where rookie running back James Cook led the way with 31 rushing yards. The Bills were able to get down into the red zone right before the end of the first quarter thanks to a short run by Allen. On the first play of the second quarter, Allen found wide receiver Stefon Diggs with an eight-yard pass for a touchdown.’

McDermott happy with Bills first division win

‘The Bills played a very well-rounded game with only one turnover on the offensive side of the ball and a great presence in the run game. The defense had good numbers as well, holding the Patriots’ offense to only 10 points.’

Allen, proud of team’s mentality throughout long stretch of games

‘”I thought we played really well tonight, obviously only 24 points but our defense played fantastic ball where we didn’t feel like we have to press and make any mistakes. Obviously there’s a few plays that we’d like to have back. But again these are good wins, in division, away, it’s hard to win in this league so we’ll learn from this one and move on.”‘

Bills place Von Miller on Injured Reserve

‘“We’ve been assessing Von this week and seeing how he is, and we don’t want to rush him back,” Beane said via a pool report. “This gives us a chance to go ahead and count tonight’s game and three more on Injured Reserve, and hopefully we can get him back for the stretch run.”‘
