‘“I mean, the effort our defense put forward, I’m speechless,” said grateful center Mitch Morse. “The guys were on fire, they played with intensity, the game plan was sound, they were confident in it, and we needed them for four quarters tonight. Kudos to them, they played their tails off. We wouldn’t be in this position without them.”’

Bills report card: How Taron Johnson made one of the biggest plays in Buffalo history
‘It is clear the Bills have no faith in their run game. How else would you explain Brian Daboll calling 25 pass plays and just one run in the first half? Not that there’s anything wrong with that, ordinarily, because this Buffalo offense functions best when the ball is in Allen’s hands. But it felt like the Bills needed to make a better effort in the first half because the Ravens never had to worry about the run and they seemed ready to cover everything in the pass game because of it.’

Beyond Allen and Diggs, these 6 Buffalo Bills need to have big games vs. Ravens
‘No one can argue that Edmunds isn’t one of the best athletes on the team, a physical freak at 6-foot-5 and 250 pounds. In this game, Edmunds will need every ounce of that athleticism because there will be several plays where he’s going to need to make a play on Lamar Jackson, and if he fails, bad things might happen.’

Josh Allen and Lamar Jackson at the forefront of an NFL quarterback revolution
‘Not surprisingly, the players themselves don’t really care all that much about this storyline, and Allen could very well have been the spokesperson for the group when he said the other day, “I mean, it doesn’t affect me or I don’t really care about that too much. I’m just trying to be the best quarterback for the Bills that I can be. It’s cool, but our attention, my attention, is towards the Ravens and trying to figure out how we can put our best foot forward.”’

With Zack Moss out, it’s time for Devin ‘Motor’ Singletary to speed up
‘He took the remaining 16 offensive snaps in the fourth quarter as Buffalo finished off the 27-24 AFC wildcard victory over the Colts, and now, starting with Saturday night’s AFC divisional round showdown against Baltimore, Singletary will likely have to carry the sizable burden for as long as the Bills remain alive in the playoffs.’

‘“We did a lot of good things in that ball game,” said defensive coordinator Leslie Frazier. “That was a different team and a different year; they’ve grown since then and they’ve added some wrinkles to their offense that we’re gonna have to adjust to. We realize we can’t just look at what we did last year and say that was good enough.”’

The Bills survived the Colts because, again, Josh Allen was best player on the field
‘Well, it’s not rigged, and as great as Allen has been, no one can say boo when Green Bay’s Aaron Rodgers eventually wins the award. But really, who cares who wins the MVP? Certainly not Allen, a team guy through and through. He cares about wins, and he now has 14 of those this season.’
