‘”Additional calamities” throughout 2023 could “alter the organization’s plans,” Graham noted, but team ownership has “neither the desire nor plans to make a coaching change.” Pegula still holds McDermott in “high regard,” per The Athletic, and “doesn’t want to meddle with the strong working bond McDermott has with Bills general manager Brandon Beane.”‘

‘One player who had a pretty interesting day was Bills defensive tackle Jordan Phillips. Phillips was involved in a couple of scuffles, including one play where he jumped offsides on a “Tush Push” setup. On that “play,” Phillips ran through Eagles offensive lineman Cam Jurgens, taking him down to the ground. Eagles center Jason Kelce called Phillips’ decision “bull****,” and said that he needs to be fined.’

‘Lawson took to Instagram to apologize for the incident.’

‘Following that 37-34 overtime defeat, an altercation was caught on camera between a collection of Buffalo players and Eagles fans. Defensive tackle Jordan Phillips can be seen walking away from the sideline and toward the stands while he’s jawing with a particular Eagles fan. Lawson then came into that altercation from Phillips’ right and appeared to shove the fan. Bills players were quick to grab Lawson and escort him back to the sideline before the situation escalated further. Phillips also retreated toward the bench but continued to exchange verbal blows with the fan as Leonard Floyd ushered him back.’

‘The Eagles scored on five of their last six possessions, staying within 10 points because of two missed field goals when Buffalo could have put them away. Hurts woke up, but the Bills helped awaken him.’

‘Things are certainly looking bleak for quarterback Josh Allen and Co., but many members of Bills Mafia are far from giving up hope. Bills legendary quarterback Jim Kelly wrote an open letter to Allen and the entire team, urging them to continue to fight.’

‘The altercation continued post-game, with Clemons following Dawkins up into the locker room tunnel and the pair having to be kept away from each other by several players and staffers.’

Here’s a few offensive stats to keep an eye on ahead of Sunday’s match: The Bills command a daunting offense this season, having averaged 3.2 touchdowns per game (they’re ranked second in touchdowns overall). It’s a different story for the Jets , though, as they’ve been averaging only 1.1 per game. Will the Bills continue their march to the end zone, or will the Jets flip the script?’

‘On Thursday, Diggs cooled the flames surrounding rumors of his dissatisfaction given that he clarirfied that he hasn’t spoken with Trevon about his thoughts on the Bills season of late.’

‘”It doesn’t make sense. You’re paid. You’re the No. 1 wide receiver, what’s the worry,” Gronkowski said on “Up & Adams on Wednesday. “Josh Allen looks to go to you every single time that he possibly can. You got your stats. It’s not like you’ll be better with another team. I don’t know what the problem is. … Just suck it up, why cause these problems?”‘

‘McDermott has now parted ways with both of his coordinators (Dorsey and former defensive coordinator Leslie Frazier) in the last 10 months.’

‘Let’s dive into what Brady did running two offenses from 2019 to 2021.’

‘This isn’t the first time this year that a frustrating Buffalo defeat has led to speculation about Diggs’ standing with the team. The Pro Bowler was notably absent at the start of the Bills’ mandatory minicamp in the spring, a year after signing a $96 million contract extension. He told reporters after returning to work that “all is well,” suggesting “everybody has family issues.” And both Allen and general manager Brandon Beane echoed as much, arguing that Diggs remains a pivotal part of the Bills’ long-term plans.’

‘”We can’t turn the ball over, period, let alone four times,” McDermott said. “That’s not good enough.”‘

‘In a game that could be best be described as whacky, the Buffalo Bills committed an unbelievable penalty that cost them the game and potentially a playoff spot down the road.’
