Bills already make a decision on Keon Coleman’s availability against Chiefs
‘Coach Sean McDermott said Monday that wide receiver Keon Coleman will not play in the game, though that was expected. There has not been a decision made on whether Coleman will go on injured reserve, but for now, it seems like with the bye coming after Kansas City, the Bills are trying to avoid that.’
Bills back at home for most highly anticipated game of NFL season: What to know
‘For the first time since 1993, the Bills have won eight of their first 10 games. In a weird slice of symmetry, that season, Buffalo played the Chiefs in their 11th game, that one was in Kansas City, and Joe Montana outdueled Jim Kelly in a 23-7 Chiefs victory.’
Turnover-happy Bills’ D avoids Indy ‘trap game’
‘Even on a day when Buffalo let another star running back, in this case Jonathan Taylor, run wild at times, it was a solid day for the Bills’ ‘D.’ Taylor racked up 114 yards on 21 carries, but more than half of those (58) came on one big play. And even that drive, Indy’s first score of the game, showed a bend-but-don’t break quality with the Colts settling for a field goal in the red zone.’

Bills Week 10 PFF grades: Former UDFA leads way for defense, reserve OL steps up vs. Colts
‘Josh Allen did not play his best game on Sunday as evidenced by two poorly thrown interceptions. Despite this, Allen also did Josh Allen things in the game. His throw to Mack Hollins before halftime was a play that few quarterbacks can make in this league. His running ability was also on display in the game with a touchdown score and big run on Buffalo’s final drive of the game. Despite not being at his best, Allen still produced 330 total yards of offensive for the Bills. In addition to his 80.1 overall grade, Allen had a passing grade of 70.0 and a run grade of 86.0.’
Bills open All-Pro Matt Milano’s window to return from IR, won’t play against the Chiefs

Milano will not play against the Chiefs Sunday and the Bills have until the day after the Dec. 1 game against the San Francisco 49ers to activate him to the active roster and keep him on IR for the remainder of the season.’
Upon Further Review: Bills won chess match with Joe Flacco just enough times to force miscues
‘On the Johnson interception, the Bills showed two-high safeties (Cover 2) and then brought safety Damar Hamlin on a delayed blitz while shifting to a Cover 3 (three defensive backs high) zone. Flacco was so sure of his decision that he released the ball quickly, but almost immediately after it left his hand, he knew it was a mistake.’
Bills brace for latest showdown against Chiefs knowing it won’t ease past playoff woes against KC
‘Successful as the Bills have been in winning three straight regular-season meetings in what’s become an annual matchup between AFC contenders, what stands out is Buffalo coming up empty in the games that truly matter.’
Bills linebacker Matt Milano cleared to begin practicing 3 months after tearing left biceps
‘The move opens a 21-day window for Milano to be activated off injured reserve. The AFC East-leading Bills (8-2) enter their bye week after hosting the Chiefs, meaning the earliest the eighth-year player can return is for Buffalo’s home game against San Francisco on Dec. 1.’
Buffalo Bills WR Keon Coleman out vs. Kansas City Chiefs
‘Coleman is dealing with a right wrist injury suffered in the Week 9 win over the Miami Dolphins. The injury forced him to miss the team’s win over the Indianapolis Colts last week, but McDermott said that Coleman going on injured reserve is still not expected. The team’s bye week follows the game against the Chiefs.’
Bills open up 21-day window for linebacker Matt Milano; WR Keon Coleman to miss showdown vs. Chiefs
‘McDermott said that the Bills will open the 21-day practice window for linebacker Matt Milano while adding that he will not face the Chiefs. Milano has yet to play this year after undergoing surgery to repair a torn biceps back in August. Like Milano, rookie wideout Keon Coleman will also not be available for Sunday’s game. Coleman, who was inactive for this past Sunday’s win over the Colts, will continue to miss time as he deals with a wrist injury.’

Bills get troubling news regarding Keon Coleman
‘After missing Week 10, rookie wide receiver Keon Coleman has already been ruled out for Week 11 by head coach Sean McDermott. Coleman is battling a wrist injury he sustained in the final moments of the Bills’ Week 9 win over the Miami Dolphins when former Bill Jordan Poyer laid a hit on him that was flagged for unnecessary roughness.’
