‘The brothers got a group photo, and posed after the game following a jersey swap.’

‘”It’s something that we’ve focused on all year,” linebacker Lorenzo Alexander said of the Bills’ focus on forcing turnovers. “(Turnovers) normally come in bunches.

‘A photo of all three of them from this game has to be the family holiday card this year, right? Tremaine is a linebacker and will face his running back brother Trey. Terrell is a safety.’

‘Allen downplaying the matchup is a smart move, no matter what is at stake for the Bills Sunday. Buffalo hasn’t won 10 games in a season since 1999 and has its best team since 1995, when the team started 8-3 and last won a playoff game. The Bills haven’t started a season 10-3 or better since an 11-2 start in 1991, when the franchise reached the second of four consecutive Super Bowls.’

‘This season marks 20 years since the original release of the iconic cereal named after Bills QB Doug Flutie. With the 20th anniversary and Flutie being honored as the “Legend of the Game” in Buffalo this weekend, it is the perfect time to bring back the cereal.’

‘For the Bills, the game will mark a rare appearance on the Sunday night schedule. Since NBC started airing the Sunday night game in 2006, the Bills have only made one appearance, and that came in November 2007 when they lost a home game to the Patriots, 56-10. The Bills have the fewest Sunday night appearances of any team in the NFL.’

‘Bills defensive ends Shaq Lawson and Jordan Phillips mimicked Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliot’s signature eating motion celebration at one point, followed by Phillips doing a first down signal mocking the star RB.’

‘Hall recalled how it transpired saying, “Mike says hi to a guy with his window down and the guy goes ‘You guys look cold, do you have far to walk?’ Mike told him his car broke down. The guy goes ‘Is there a way I can help you out? There’s Tim Hortons a couple of miles up the road. Get in.”‘

‘What makes Gore special is his ability to make an impact on a game without needing 30 carries to do so. He has averaged over 4.0 yards per carry for a season on 11 different occasions. He’s averaged at least 4.6 yards per carry five times, including a career high 5.4 yards per carry in 2006. In 2012, the year he helped lead the 49ers to the Super Bowl, Gore averaged 4.7 yards per carry while earning his second of three straight Pro Bowl selections.

‘”For me growing up, he was someone that . . . runs the ball really well, [he’s] strong, aggressive,” Peterson said, via the Redskins’ official website. “Even now, I enjoy watching him and seeing that he’s being successful. It’s always a motivation to know I have another comrade two years older than me that’s still getting it done.”‘

‘According to bystanders, the boy called McCain “irrelevant” before the game, when the 26-year-old turned around and threatened to spit the boy’s face.

According to David Wilson of the Miami Herald, McCain issued a statement on Monday concerning the incident…’.

‘And it’s not just individual play of Edmunds and Milano. The defensive scheme set forth by head coach Sean McDermott and defensive coordinator Leslie Frazier dazzled and done an excellent job limiting big plays. Buffalo has surrendered 46 pass plays of 20-plus yards since the start of 2018, the fewest “explosive” plays allowed in that time frame in the NFL. Chicago is in second at 52.’

‘After enjoying a prolific collegiate career at East Carolina, Jones found himself buried on Buffalo’s depth chart during his third NFL season, with fellow receivers John Brown and Cole Beasley being one and two on the Bills in receptions and receiving yards, respectively.’
