Thad Brown: Bills waste Allen brilliance in another agonizing loss

‘Disturbingly, the caliber of offense doesn’t matter. Whether it’s the trash group led by Mac Jones in New England, Russell Wilson’s middling offense in Denver or Jalen Hurts and the 10-1 Eagles, the Bills always end up allowing enough yards to get them beat.’

Eagles pull out overtime win vs. Bills in high-scoring slugfest

‘The Bills won the coin toss, got the ball first, and once again put together a good drive. But they couldn’t get into the end zone, and were forced to kick a field goal. From there, the Eagles offense, which was in a rhythm at that point, easily stormed down the field once again. Jalen Hurts ran it in from 12 yards out, and Philadelphia won its fifth straight game, defeating Buffalo 37-34.’

Bills’ defense fails to close out game vs. Eagles in another ‘gut-punch’ loss

‘”You’re either on one side or the other. We’ve been fortunate enough around here for a long time to be on the winning side, and then it seems like this year, every game comes down to the last two minutes,” he said. “It’s either the offense has the ball or we have the ball, and these are the results. So, again, like you said, it’s unfortunate. We could have 9 or 10 wins right now, but that’s in fantasy land, and in real life, we understand what our record is. This is the NFL, I’ve been doing it for a long time, and it’s tough.”‘

Bills’ Jordan Phillips, Shaq Lawson confront fan during loss to Eagles

‘Lawson, Phillips and other Bills players walked from the sideline toward the front row of stands at Lincoln Financial Field and started jawing at Eagles fans. Phillips got close to the face of one fan before Lawson walked up and seemingly made physical contact with the spectator, according to video circulating on social media.’

Nick Sirianni’s memory lane: Eagles coach, Jamestown native recalls lessons learned during career

‘Fran Sirianni was the coach at Southwestern Central for nine years. Each of his three sons – Mike, Jay and Nick – followed their father into coaching. “He’s the biggest influence I’ve had,” Nick said. “Just working hard if you want to accomplish something and I find myself thinking about the things he would say and I use those all of the time. He would always tell me, ‘From every place you go, take a little something that – make sure you write it down to form your own coaching philosophy.’ I’ve always taken that with me from each place I’ve went to. There are just so many things that happen when you grow up in a household like that and have parents like that.”’

Bills Mailbag: Is Joe Brady a better fit for Josh Allen’s personality?

‘I think Allen is in a tough spot with the offensive change. He campaigned for Dorsey to get the job, and likely feels somewhat responsible for him getting fired. On the other, Allen sure didn’t look like he was having any fun the last couple months, and his “I feel like I’m (expletive) back!” comment on the sideline against the Jets sure felt like he was getting some frustration out. Brady’s approach, at least publicly, does make him seem a bit more easygoing than Daboll or Dorsey, but it’s important to point out we don’t know his style on the practice field or in the meeting room.’

Buffalo Next: Bills fans-themed movie made on thin budget gets national interest

‘“We intended to make a movie for this region and this fan base, and that’s what we’ve been up to working like crazy people,” said Rubin, who served as the editor-in-chief of National Lampoon for 10 years. “But we weren’t totally surprised by the interest. People really understand the story on a national level.”’
