‘That would be some of the highest winds ever recorded in an NFL game. The 1982 AFC championship game between the Cincinnati Bengals and the San Diego Chargers featured subzero temperatures and wind gusts past 50 mph as well. More recently, the Bills lost 14-10 to the Patriots in December 2021 in a Monday Night Football game featuring winds gusting up to 55 mph.’

‘Look how much has changed: Buffalo’s window is wide open again after one of the most resilient finishes in the league this season. And that could be bad news for the rest of the league as the playoffs begin next week.’

‘The move comes after Amazon’s Black Friday broadcast included various purchasing integrations via QR code. NBC is taking a similar approach, including a second-quarter “shoppable moment” with a QR code leading to Walmart’s Holiday Hub. Walmart, Hyundai and Capital One are the sponsors of the commercial-free fourth quarter.’

‘McDermott’s 2019 comments about 9/11 resurfaced this week in a feature by independent NFL journalist Tyler Dunne, where he questioned the leadership style of the seven-year head coach as the Bills sit at 6-6 on the season. According to multiple sources cited in Dunne’s feature on GoingLongTD.com, McDermott told his team that they need to come together like “the terrorists on Sept. 11, 2001.”‘

‘A Dallas Police Department spokesperson told USA TODAY Sports in an email Thursday morning that Miller, the 34-year-old Pro Bowl pass-rusher, had been charged with assaulting a pregnant woman after police responded to a call to a condominium complex in the northern part of the city at around 11 a.m. on Wednesday.

‘For all of the mishaps, mistakes and misfortunes the Bills endured – mind-numbing losses, a fired offensive coordinator and debates about “championship windows” – through the first 11 weeks of the season, they had a prime opportunity Sunday to leave much of that behind for the stretch run.’

‘Facing a second-and-goal with less than two minutes left in the first half, Allen was flushed outside of the pocket on a play that started at the Eagles’ 3-yard line. As Reddick dragged him down, it appeared Reddick’s left hand first grabbed Allen by the front collar – the stretch marks afterward proved that – and again with his right hand near Allen’s neck and back of the helmet.’

‘Allen leads the NFL in turnovers (14) and interceptions (11). He has six straight games with a pick. Allen had three of the Bills’ four turnovers (two interceptions and a fumble) on Monday against Denver. For those of us who have long pointed out Allen’s propensity to cough up the football with poor decision-making, and said it would one day catch up to him in a big way, well, we will not say we told you so.’

‘”I’m not responsible for how other people feel,” Stefon Diggs told reporters on Thursday. “Anybody in this room for this manner, a reporter, a player, even my own brother. I love my brother.

‘“Turnover wise, it’s abysmal when we lose, and there there’s no secret to that. So … it’s not like it’s broken. We’re not, we’re not a broken offense. we’re not a broken team. but the splits compared to when we win and when we lose are massive.”‘

‘Since Allen entered the league in 2018, no QB has more turnovers (94) than the two-time Pro Bowl selection.’

‘It should be no different in Western New York as it pertains to Allen, a two-time Pro Bowler and an upgraded version – at least in certain regards – of former league MVP Cam Newton. But Allen seems to need guidance, stability and help – and those aren’t insignificant issues for a player who appears to take on too much of the offensive load and/or is overly burdened with it.’

‘The Broncos defense forced four turnovers — two fumbles and two interceptions — but the offense only scored six points off the takeaways. This comes after the Broncos forced five turnovers in their Week 8 win over the Kansas City Chiefs before they had their bye.’
