Here’s what the Bills were saying about the showdown with the Dolphins

‘“You always want to win your in-division games,” said Josh Allen. “It’s a team that we play twice a year. I know it means a lot for our fans and their fans, whatever it means for standings, this and that. At the end of the day, it’s Week 4. They all mean the same for us. This is the biggest one that we have on our schedule because it’s the next one and it’s a team that’s playing extremely well. They’re all important. We’re not going to put any more emphasis on one more than the other.”’

Buffalo Bills’ Josh Allen pours hot sauce in his soda: Yum or yuck?

‘The Bills shared a video of the team’s star QB pouring buffalo sauce straight into a Pepsi Zero Sugar drink while enjoying buffalo wings at a bar. Allen stirs the concoction with a celery stick, takes a bite, and then sips the drink when he “realizes” he’s being filmed.’

Several players miss Bills practice; LB Bernard named AFC DPOW after historic performance

‘Safeties Micah Hyde (hamstring) and Jordan Poyer (knee soreness) were both non-participants, as were defensive back Siran Neal, offensive lineman Ryan Bates and edge rusher Leonard Floyd, who are all dealing with ankle injuries. Bates was the lone player to exit Sunday’s win over the Commanders due to his ankle injury, while Floyd and Hyde each dealt with their respective ailments throughout the week but were cleared to play by the Bills’ medical staff leading up to the Week 3 contest.’

McDermott knows Dolphins are explosive, a handful to prepare for

‘”They are all as advertised,” said McDermott ahead of Wednesday’s practice. “They’re explosive, anybody that touches the ball can score. Whether it’s what you think is gonna be a two-yard run, turns into a crease and a gasher. Same thing with the passing game. Coach [Mike] McDaniel does a good job of moving guys around, creating different styles of offense. It’s a handful.”‘

Hyde, Poyer sit out of Wednesday’s practice

‘Safeties Micah Hyde (hamstring) and Jordan Poyer (knee soreness), along with cornerback Siran Neal (ankle) all set out Wednesday’s session. Meanwhile, cornerback Taron Johnson was limited with a hip injury.’

Terrel Bernard named AFC Defensive Player of the Week

‘Bernard was all over the field for the Bills in their 37-3 win over the Commanders. The 24-year-old racked up a team-high seven total tackles, two tackles for a loss, two sacks, an interception and a fumble recovery in the victory.’

Bills LB Terrel Bernard named player of the week

‘Bernard, in his fourth career start, became the first Buffalo player to record two sacks, an interception and a fumble recovery in the same game. He is the seventh NFL player in history to compile those stats in a regular season game, and the first since Brian Urlacher did it for Chicago in 2007.’

Bills brace for Dolphins high powered offense

‘”They make you do something that you really don’t want to do that’s not in your wheelhouse. That’s why they’re good. They put you out on the edge and try to get you in bad positions.”‘
