‘”He’s playing at a high level, and probably an all-time high level. He’s big, he’s fast, he breaks tackles. Then the combination of what they’ve added outside with Julio Jones and A.J. Brown, to what was an already good receiving corps, makes it a tough combination with what they can do at the line of scrimmage and what they can do in the passing game.”‘

‘The Bills offense needs to keep their foot on the pedal and look to continue to make plays down the field. They should be available.’

‘Only one player was listed as a non-participant due to an injury – running back/special teamer Taiwan Jones, as he deals with a hamstring injury. Jones was seen on the stationary bike during the early media-viewing portion of practice on Thursday.’

‘So far through five games with the Bills, the 21-year-old has already outperformed his early expectations, registering 18 total tackles, four tackles for loss, three quarterback hits, three sacks and his interception.’

‘Allen is atop a list of 10 players I want to take seriously as candidates. If you go strictly by the odds, that number is nine, with that many players coming in at +1200 or better. That’s really tight, and clues us in as to how competitive and fun the battle for this award should be.’

‘With the Bills leading at halftime, it was the 14th-straight regular season game in which Buffalo took the lead to the locker room, which is a NFL record.’

‘That said, the Bills were called for 10 penalties for 103 yards. Some poor calls or not, that’s far too many.’

‘Johnson is currently playing on the final year of his rookie contract after being a fourth round pick (121st overall) of the Bills in the 2018 NFL Draft out of Weber State. In three games played this season, Johnson has already registered 15 total tackles, a sack and a forced fumble.’

‘The Bills averaged 31.3 points per game last season, but in the two games they played against the Chiefs, including the AFC Championshp, they scored 17 and 24 points. Things need to be different Sunday night, especially since the Chiefs are currently giving up the second most points in the NFL at 31.3 per game. If the Bills can’t get their high-powered offense into the end zone more often in this one, we’ll be wondering when – and if – they will ever be able to.’

‘Linebacker Matt Milano (hamstring), defensive end A.J. Epenesa (foot), and running back/special teamer Taiwan Jones (hamstring) all practiced in a limited capacity on Friday, but are questionable to play in the game.’

‘”I think it goes back to respecting each week, respecting every opponent each week and just trying to grow as a football team,” McDermott said with Sal Capaccio and “Sneaky Joe” DiBiase. “We certainly acknowledge where we were last year with this team and at the end of the season how it ended our year. That’s the human part of it. The other side is we have to focus on one week at a time and get ourselves ready to go this week.”‘

‘Milano was working off to the side with trainers, as most of the rest of the team was on the field just outside the ADPRO Sports Training Center.’

‘It is the first time in Edmunds’ career that he has been named the AFC Defensive Player of the Week. He is the first Bills defensive player to earn the weekly honor from the National Football League since linebacker A.J. Klein in Week 12 last season against the Los Angeles Chargers.’

‘There will be plenty of talk about the dominance of this Bills defense through these first four games, and it certainly deserves plenty of recognition. But a broken down Ben Rothelisberger, a Tua Tagovailoa/Jacoby Brissett combo, Taylor Heinicke and finally Davis Mills on Sunday are far from measuring sticks.’
