Opinion: Bills did what they needed to Sunday: Win

‘As head coach Sean McDermott might say, there are lots of things that need to be corrected. But a 1-0 start is a whole lot better than an 0-1 start to the season. Especially given this is a short week with a big early season matchup coming against the Miami Dolphins on Thursday night.’

Opinion: Capaccio: Arrow Up/Arrow Down: Cardinals at Bills

‘Sure, there were a couple flags thrown that either shouldn’t have or maybe considered ticky-tak, but the bottom line is the Bills committed too many penalties as a team, and especially too many in critical situations, including wiping a touchdown off the board. They were called for a total of nine penalties for 65 yards.’

Bills fans happy with season-opening win despite ‘sluggish’ start

‘”I was really concerned the first half, and I thought that some of the refs’ calls were undesirable. But I was really happy they pulled it out. The second half was so much better. The defense came alive in the second half,” said Bills fan Theresa from Rochester after the victory.’

Josh Allen & Greg Rousseau dominate as Buffalo Bills leap into season with a win

‘At the two-minute warning the Bills found themselves trailing 17-3 and on the verge of starting the season with an ugly loss to the Cardinals. Until then, Allen had thrown just two passes in the game. The team responded with a scoring drive to bring the deficit down to seven points heading into the half. They then started the second half with a touchdown, quickly making a game that felt out of reach tied.’

Bills overcome poor start to grab victory in season opener

‘Penalties and turnovers just part of the equation that put them in a 17-3 hole with 2 minutes, 40 seconds to go in the second quarter against the Cardinals. Then came the double-dip that flipped things around for the home team.’

Carucci Take 2: Josh Allen wasted no time in putting the Bills on his shoulders

‘This win was all about Allen. Not only because of his two touchdown throws. Not only because of his two TD runs, the second of which had him going airborne into the end zone and injuring his left hand in the process. Not only because he converted two fourth downs with his legs. It was about Allen’s sheer will to win, his ability to overcome a slow and ragged start by the entire team and lead the Bills back from a 17-3 deficit with three unanswered touchdowns.’

Bills rally to hold on against Cardinals

‘Rookie Keon Coleman led the Bills with four catches and 51 yards receiving, including a 28-yard catch the fourth quarter that set up a touchdown. Rousseau’s final sack also forced a fumble that set up a go-ahead TD.’

‘“It’s a blessing, I’m just happy to be out there with the guys that I’m out there with, because that’s what it’s all about, you know,” Rousseau said following his single-game career high performance. “One day it might be me. The next second, it’s somebody else making the plays. So just feeding off of each other’s energy. It’s just a blessing to be out here, just grateful for the opportunity.”’
