‘The Bills are obviously taking a cautious approach with Singletary because rushing a player back from a hamstring injury can be highly detrimental. It’s an injury that needs to heal properly or else the risk of doing further damage — and potentially missing more time — increases.’

With his wife in remission for cancer, Kyle Peko grateful for promotion to Buffalo Bills
‘“I tell everyone that she’s the strong one,” he said. “She’s kept me positive through all this. I was the one who wanted to stay home and not come back to Buffalo when we found out, but that wasn’t her plan, she wanted me to be here. Ultimately, I think her being so positive and getting my butt over here, that’s why I’m in this position.”’
Can the Bills beat the Patriots? Sure, but they’ll have to be almost perfect
‘Do the Bills, who have lost 30 of the 33 games they have played against Brady, have a chance in this game? Sure, everyone has a chance in the NFL, the old “on any given Sunday” mantra is still alive and kicking. Team USA had a chance against the Soviets, and Buster Douglas had a chance against Mike Tyson, too, and look what happened.’
Jack Eichel is fan of Josh Allen but Boston-area native not sharing Bills-Pats pick
‘“He’s got a lot of pressure on him with where the Bills have been,” Eichel, who is entering his fifth professional season, said of Allen, who is into his second. “I thought he did a good job stepping in last year. It was a bit of a learning experience for him, but I thought he got better as the year went on. I love watching him play. You can tell he wants to win so bad, and he’s a really good guy.”’
The film doesn’t lie: Bills’ LB Tremaine Edmunds didn’t have a good game against Bengals
‘We all expected big strides from the 21-year-old in his second NFL season, but in these first three games, Edmunds has been a ghost. He has 19 tackles, only one for lost yardage, and two pass breakups.’
Buffalo Bills defensive tackle Harrison Phillips out for season with knee injury
‘The Bills have Jordan Phillips as part of the defensive tackle rotation with starters Star Lotulelei and Ed Oliver, but they will clearly have to add someone to the 53-man roster. Kyle Peko is currently on the practice squad and he could be an option.’
Allen orchestrates game-winning drive as Bills beat Bengals to stay undefeated
‘Given the way the Bills dominated the first half, this one should have been over long before it was but, they are, after all, the Bills. Nothing is ever easy.’
Roth: Bills let Bengals hang around too long and nearly paid the price
‘But this was also a correction to the rising stock that was Josh Allen. He made a half dozen poor decisions and the offense went into a funk. Another stellar effort by Buffalo’s Top 10 defense was nearly squandered. Let a team hang around, and bad things happen.’
Maiorana: Buffalo wins a game so many previous Bills teams would have lost
‘This group, the third of the Sean McDermott era, is wired differently. It does not quit, does not let adversity drain it of life. And that characteristic, more than any other, is why the Bills recovered from a lousy second half where they blew a 14-0 lead and pulled out a pulsating 21-17 victory over the Cincinnati Bengals.’
Bills report card: Allen throws another horrific pick but deserves credit for comeback
‘Look, picks are going to happen. Even that guy in New England throws them once in a while. But this particular type of interception, the one that very nearly sent the Bills tumbling to what would have been a mortifying, soul-crushing type of loss, has to stop, here and now.’
Expectations are soaring for the Bills, who must now live up to them
‘Bills 27, Bengals 14.’
Downfield blocking becomes a point of pride with Bills’ skill position players
‘“Everybody wanted to go celebrate with (McKenzie) on that little jet sweep Sunday, but I was the first one to go get Dawson Knox and make sure that he knew I understood what he did and how crucial he was on that play,” said Allen. “It’s extremely important for us. We take pride in what we do. Our receivers know that the run plays, they’re not getting the ball but they’re still doing their job and blocking down the field.”’
Jordan Poyer, Micah Hyde provide Bills with safety net
‘“Well, that’s up there,’’ said McDermott when asked where finding a stellar safety tandem ranked on his to-do list. “Just in terms of … the types of people they are and then the types of players that they are, the fabric of what they can do and their versatility.’’’
Just when you thought Tyler Kroft was ready to play, the tight end suffers an ankle injury
‘The Bills signed Kroft to a three-year, $18.7 million free agent contract on the second day of free agency, targeting a player who already had a history of injury problems.’
Bills haven’t forgotten Andy Dalton’s heroics, but they’ve got a game to win Sunday
‘And “No,’’ he said with a laugh, “I’m not expecting the same kind of ovation I got last time.’’’
