‘”No chance. That was just weird… I’ve seen better kicks than that on ‘College GameDay.’ What the heck was that?” said Buck.’

‘When Allen was asked to throw, he was successful, going 19-of-25 for 215 yards and two scores. Yet nothing was easy. Time and again, Allen was forced to stand in the pocket and wait for a receiver to uncover. Oftentimes, it didn’t happen.’

‘On a third-and-11 from the Jets’ 12-yard line with under 30 seconds remaining in the second quarter, New York only rushed four but got home as the pocket collapsed on Allen. The Bills QB, in perhaps the most unconventional escape, scrambled in between Buffalo left tackle Dion Dawkins and Jets defensive end Michael Clemons.’

‘Dion Dawkins pulled off the rare feat of being penalized between quarters.’

‘Here’s how you can tell the game was poorly officiated: When the league’s broadcast partners, which are essentially paid a handsome wage to present a product to the masses in its finest light, are unable to excuse what is taking place before their eyes.’

‘“It’s amazing how late he waits, he gets almost out of bounds…and he throws it, he can throw it as far as he wants,” Peyton said.’

‘The sequence triggered scrutiny in this era of increased head-injury awareness, but the NFL and NFLPA announced Friday that the Bills handled Allen’s hit properly.’

‘Diggs and Allen, who were close during their time together as teammates with the Bills, shared a quick hug moments after the final whistle on Sunday:’

‘Allen was extermely slow to get up and eventually went to the blue tent where he was quickly cleared to return to the game on the very next drive. Allen was briefly replaced by Mitch Trubisky after a quick Houston turnover, but only ended up missing one play.’

‘The easiest part about the job, however, has to be knowing that the game is played with a football. It’s right there in the name of the sport.’

‘Even NFL RedZone’s Scott Hanson couldn’t believe what he was seeing from the Bills.’

‘Allen completed 30% of his passes. According to ESPN’s Alaina Getzenberg, that’s the lowest completion percentage for a quarterback with at least 30 pass attempts in the last 30 seasons.’

‘According to Breer, the Bills face salary-cap issues that would make it hard to swing a trade for Adams. If he was traded ahead of Week 5, Adams would be owed more than $13 million by his new team—a price tag that drops by nearly $940,000 each week. Adams is also under contract for two more seasons and is owed $35.6 million in both 2025 and ’26.’

‘A team source even admitted that during the 2023 season is when the Bills started to notice a shift of Diggs’s role on the team. The specific game that stood out is when the Bills lost to the Denver Broncos.’

‘Miller, once one of the league’s best defensive players, has made eight Pro Bowls and three All-Pro teams in his career. He has logged five tackles and three sacks while playing 35% of the Bills’ defensive snaps through four games this year.’
