‘The Bills will be without right tackle Spencer Brown and guard Jon Feliciano. The last time both starters were out of the lineup was two weeks ago at Jacksonville. The Bills gained only 301 total yards, gave up four sacks, and didn’t get into the end zone that day against the Jaguars. They have to have a much better performance in the same situation against the Colts Sunday.’

‘All other players on both team’s active rosters have no injury designation, meaning they are all available to play.’

‘“I am really proud of what he did this last week and master his role,” McDermott said. “On top of that, he made some big plays for us over the middle of the field. I look forward to him continuing in that effort as we continue throughout the season.”’

‘It’s unclear if Brown will be available for the team’s game on Sunday against the Indianapolis Colts, or even next Thursday on Thanksgiving night against the New Orleans Saints. If he isn’t, the Bills may go back to the same starting offensive line they used two week’s ago in a 9-6 loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars. That lineup saw Daryl Williams shifting back to right tackle with Ike Boettger and Cody Ford starting at guard.’

‘Meanwhile, the Colts have several significant players who sat out of Wednesday’s practice, including starting linebacker Darius Leonard. The veteran injured his ankle in Sunday’s win over the Jacksonville Jaguars, left the game briefly, but returned and finished the contest.’

‘Buffalo was humming from start-to-finish, scoring early and often on offense and also grabbing five takeaways from Mike White and the Jets offense. When the dust settled, the Bills flexed their muscles to the tune of a 45-17 final in East Rutherford, New Jersey.’

‘On Sunday against the New York Jets, the Bills remedied every issue that was on the list. Daboll was back to being a good coordinator. He put together a very good game plan, used a variety of personnel groupings and formations andgot players involved who hadn’t had much work through the first eight games. He also found a way to help the run game while also maintained the Bills identity as a pass first offense, which is the right thing to do.’

‘Once again, even after Sean McDermott made sure to note they had far too many penalties last week in Jacksonville, flags hurt the Bills. They were called for seven of them totaling 50 yards. But three holding calls each wiped out huge gains of 17 (run), 31 (pass), and 25 (pass) yards. That’s a total of 73 more yards of offense that were negated.’

‘Buffalo lost too many 1-on-1 matchups last week to the Jaguars, especially along the offensive line. There are different reasons for that, but a lot of it has to do with playing more physical from the snap to the whistle.’

‘“There’s gonna be games where it spikes like that, but we went overboard,” McDermott said with Sal Capaccio and “Sneaky Joe” DiBiase. “We are well-aware the crew this week has called the most penalties of any crew in the NFL, so it has to be an ongoing attention to detail for our football team.”’

‘Quarterback Jake Fromm and wide receiver Tanner Gentry will now revert back to the practice squad from the Reserve/COVID-19 list, while cornerback Cam Lewis was signed to a contract and added to the active 53-man roster.’

‘For the Jets on Thursday, five players were limited, including quarterback Zach Wilson, but head coach Robert Saleh has already announced that Mike White will start under center.’

‘Veteran New York Giants radio play-by-play man Paul Dottino will take over Murphy’s duties and call the play-by-play along the Buffalo Bills Radio Network. The rest of the Bills’ radio broadcast crew remains in the place with Eric Wood serving as color analyst and Sal Capaccio on the sidelines.’

‘With hopes of moving to 6-2 in 2021, the Bills struggled on the offensive side of the football to the tune of just two field goals, both in the first half. Buffalo was shut out after halftime en route to a miserable 9-6 loss to Jacksonville.’

‘Jacksonville’s defense gave up 21 touchdowns over the first seven games. The Bills never got into the end zone.’
