Top 3 things we learned from Bills vs. Dolphins | Week 9
‘The kick had plenty of room to spare, so as soon as the ball soared past the upright, Bass let out an exuberant celebration as his teammates raced over to lift him up. Bass described the moment as “emotional”. “Was just focused on right here, right now, the present and being patient with everything. Man, you know you’re gonna go through ups and downs, but just continue to put your best foot forward. We did that today. So, just very emotional,” he said.’

‘”That was the biggest thing in my head, was make sure I make him miss,” Davis said. “After that, I kind of just blacked out from there. I heard the whole crowd, so I assumed nobody was around me. Thanks, Josh, for believing in me. Being able to make that pass, and being a rookie, to me that shows he has a lot of trust in me to go out there and make a play, and I’m just blessed that he was able to have that faith in me.”‘

How do the Bills sweep the Dolphins? 4 keys to victory
‘Defensive coordinator Bobby Babich is ready for the challenge the Dolphins offense brings. “They do a great job,” Babich said Monday. “Every time we play them it’s certainly a challenge. They do such a good job. They have reasons for things they do. You know, they can attack you different ways.” With quarterback Tua Tagovailoa back, expect quick-release throws and yards after the catch from the Dolphins offense. The Bills, who will have Von Miller back, need to get to Tagovailoa and be sure in their tackling all around the field. “I look at it like this, when it comes to tackling,” Babich said, “you’re either willing or you’re not willing.” On Sunday, the Bills need to prove they’re willing.’
Bills-Dolphins numbers to know: These 4 stats could shape Buffalo’s game vs. Miami

Bills-Dolphins: Who you got? Buffalo News writers make their predictions on Sunday’s game
‘I can’t find a single reason to like the Dolphins in this game. That probably means it’s a safe bet to take Miami. Seriously, though, how could you justify that pick? Josh Allen is 12-2 against Miami, and a couple of plays away from that record being perfect. Tua Tagovailoa returning last week breathed some life into the Dolphins’ offense, but now injuries on the defensive side are a major problem for Miami. If Allen does what he normally does against the Dolphins, is Miami really capable of outscoring the Bills? I can’t see it. Protect the football, which the Bills have been great at, clean up the penalty problems and improve the third-down performance. Do those three things, and a big Bills win should be the result. Bills, 38-17.’

Bills former kicker Christie helps furniture store take lighter approach to PSLs
‘“Our take is that there are millions of Bills fans out there and the stadium can only hold so many people, so not everyone is going to be able to go, whether there’s a PSL or not,” Christie said. “With that being said, come get your own seat that you can enjoy at home and a $5 coupon for a pumpkin spice latte. That’s it. We’re taking the light side of the PSL issue.”’
Voice of the fan: Josh Allen’s big plays, great DBs, the long snapper: All things I won’t take for granted
‘It is an extraordinary talent of Allen’s to avoid the first (and often the second) pass rusher from getting a sack, apparently with ease. Bills fans have just come to expect it, and it’s a minor surprise when the first guy drags him down. I, for one, have never seen any player on any team do that one thing so (seemingly) effortlessly and consistently.’
