‘Daboll is the only offensive coordinator quarterback Josh Allen has had since entering the league in 2018 and is widely viewed as extremely instrumental in the QB’s development and success.’

‘Allen has turned down the request to play this year after Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson had to be scratched due to an ankle injury.’

‘Beane said he hasn’t slept much since the team’s 42-36 overtime loss at the Chiefs Sunday in the AFC Divisional Playoffs, adding that he has yet to watch the game back, or even the ending, but that he has had plenty of discussions with head coach Sean McDermott and owners Terry and Kim Pegula about how the final thirteen seconds played out.’

‘You want a silver lining? Eh… I’m more inclined to say that the whole shebang is gold right now, with just an awful heartbreak crap lining that will fade over time. I think. There’s no guarantee they’ll ever get that Lombardi lining, but that’s why we watch. If you knew how things would play out, that’d ruin all the drama that sucks us in. It’s a harsh reality in sports life, the sudden playoff loss… especially when the win was so close. But… I can’t help but look back to see how far this whole thing as come.’

‘It sure doesn’t take long for word to spread, and $13 can add up pretty fast. The tally of new donations into the fund that benefits children treated at Oishei Children’s Hospital in Buffalo was crossing the $223,000 mark Wednesday afternoon.’

‘“I wish our execution was different, just like I said after the game.”’

‘”Last night f—— sucked,” said Bills defensive tackle Harrison Phillips said on Monday after the loss. “[It’s been] 24 hours, so it’s still in that first wave of pain, I guess, but got to have a growth mindset about the whole thing, and hope that we can get ourselves in the same position again or even better playing at home in the seasons to come. But I think everyone eventually will kind of look at themselves and see what they could have done better, how we could’ve played as a group better. So just a lot of reflection and sorrow today. Today’s a hard day.’

‘According to SNY’s Ralph Vacchiano, the Giants will have a second interview with Buffalo Bills offensive coordinator Brian Daboll on Tuesday. This comes less than 48 hours after Daboll’s Bills were eliminated from the playoffs in the final game of an epic Divisional Round weekend.’

‘Sunday night’s game had multiple lead changes in the last two minutes, a combined 974 yards of total offense, and a record setting receiving performance.’

‘The thing about Sunday night’s loss in Kansas City to the Chiefs that has me feeling the worst is thinking about the opportunity the Bills let slip through their fingers. The opportunity to host the Cincinnati Bengals for the AFC Championship Game was right there, just 13 seconds away.’

‘We should be talking about one of the greatest single game performances by a Bills quarterback in franchise history. After Josh Allen’s second go ahead touchdown pass inside the final two minutes of the fourth quarter, I was trying to figure out the exact place to build the statue of him.’

‘After running the ball so well for the last several weeks, the Bills could not really get anything going on the ground outside of Josh Allen runs. He was their leading rusher and had the most carries. Devin Singletary and Isaiah McKenzie were the only other players to run with the ball, and they combined for just 13 carries for 41 yards, averaging just 3.15 yards per carry.’

‘As wild as it may sound with Josh Allen and Patrick Mahomes as the two starting quarterbacks, the team that runs the ball better in this game, especially if they can really control the game with their running game, will have a great shot to win.’

‘After the Giants officially announced Schoen as their new general manager on Friday, the team has also conducted interviews with both Bills coordinators. Offensive coordinator Brian Daboll was interviewed by the Giants on Friday night, while defensive coordinator Leslie Frazier was interviewed Saturday morning.’

‘“We know that we are a good team, and we know that they are a good team, defending AFC champs,” McDermott said with Sal Capaccio and “Sneaky Joe” DiBiase. “Andy Reid has good football teams, and you expect to see them in the playoffs.”’
