Two Bills Drive

'That Von Miller penalty might be the worst I've ever seen. Seriously. Both guys were laughing. That's inexcusable in that spot. Inexcusable.'

'The Bills did a good job of bending but not breaking in pass defense Sunday against the Broncos’ receiving duo of Demaryius Thomas and Emmanuel Sanders, holding the pair to 13 receptions on 24 targets for 173 yards and no touchdowns. They also took away the big plays, not allowing a reception longer than 29 yards. But Atlanta will pose an even bigger threat to the Bills’ secondary composed of all newcomers. Rookie Tre’Davious White will face his biggest test yet against all-pro Julio Jones, who some believe is the league’s best receiver. If the Bills lock him down, there’s still Mohamed Sanu and Taylor Gabriel to deal with. But the biggest factor of all may be Ryan – far and away the best passer the Bills have faced yet. We’ll see what the secondary is made of in this game.'

'K Stephen Hauschka – No kicker in Bills history has had at least three field goals in a game that were 49 yards or longer, or two in a game that were 53 yards or longer. Hauschka did that Sunday, going 4 for 4 from 27, 49, 53 and 55 yards, all to the scoreboard end of New Era Field.'

'I can't recall Dedes having a better game than he did Sunday. He put the game in perspective, was sharp on player identifications, smartly set up Archuleta for key comments and even gently corrected his analyst's biggest mistake.'

'The Buffalo Bills' 26-16 victory over the Denver Broncos Sunday had a season-high rating of 36.9 on WIVB-TV (Channel 4).'

'"That would make me proud of Buffalo," Wes said before the game while tailgating with his family and friends, many of whom grew up — and at least one who served in the Army — with his late brother, Staff Sgt. William R. Wilson III.'

'McDermott did not want to, as he said, “look in the rearview mirror” and preferred to move forward and begin talking about Buffalo’s game against the defending NFC champion Falcons Sunday.'

'“Even though I’m thankful the BILLS won today, I’m really upset and sad about what’s happening. And I imagine many of you are too. I love the game of football and all that it means to the players, fans and cities across THIS country … but with all that’s going on it’s hard. The only time I will ever take a knee is to pray and to thank the Good Lord for what he’s given me. We all have our issues. We all need to try and appreciate and understand each other and help each other and that goes for our PRESIDENT TOO. I don’t have all the answers. But I do know that we need to UNITE not SEPARATE. I hope next week we can STAND, LOCK ARMS and become ONE FAMILY.”'

'Deon Lacey took any momentum the Denver Broncos had when he stopped the team's fake punt attempt at the end of the third quarter.'

'Jefferson was cut when the Bills trimmed their roster to 53 players. But he proudly watched his former teammates with both the Bills and Broncos join the anthem demonstrations this week after President Donald Trump said NFL owners should "fire" any "son of a bitch" who decides to kneel. A week ago, six players kneeled. After Trump's remarks, more than 200 NFL players made similar statements by kneeling or raising a fist during the national anthem.'

'Dixon, a Sylvan Beach native who went to Christian Brothers Academy and Syracuse University, is the punter for the Broncos.'

'According to Bills defensive tackle Kyle Williams, McCoy and Kelly have since talked. But unfortunately, Kelly decided to make the issue public before doing that.'

'"I will never step foot in the that place again, I will never watch an NFL football game again until this ends," Nikischer said.'

'"I like LeSean McCoy, don't get me wrong, but I totally, 100 percent I disagree with what he did," Kelly said. "You want to kneel? Fine. But when you go and do what he did yesterday, that sort of bummed me out. And I lost a lot of respect for him. … You want to kneel? That's your prerogative. I would never do that. I will always stand, thank the good Lord for everything I got. But when you disrespect the way he did and just go by his everyday duty in the national anthem being sung? Uh-uh. I won't go for that."'

'But I do know that we need to UNITE not SEPARATE. I hope next week we can STAND , LOCK ARMS and become ONE FAMILY.'
