‘They know they can beat this team, have everything rolling for them, and know the Patriots are down and have nothing to play for. They should approach this game with a desire to show the entire country, on national television, that they aren’t just AFC East Champions this season, but that the division will go though them for the foreseeable future.’

‘While Nsekhe and Johnson are the only two players listed as “questionable” for the Bills, the Patriots listed twenty players as “questionable” for the game.’

‘The first injury report of the week was released for the Bills and Patriots on Thursday, and both of the Bills’ top-two offensive tackles are dealing with groin injuries. Starter Darryl Williams was limited, while he backup Ty Nsekhe did not practice.’

‘When you consider how many detractors Josh Allen had when he was taken No. 7 overall by the Bills in the 2018 NFL Draft, Daboll deserves tremendous credit for helping develop Allen into being one of the sport’s most complete quarterbacks. Most teams looking for head coaches tend to either have a young quarterback or a draft pick they plan to use on a quarterback, so Daboll projects to be one of the most appealing coaching candidates this offseason. The 45-year-old has worked under Sean McDermott since the 2018 season, and also has experience on the staffs of Bill Belichick and Nick Saban.’

‘”I think they’ve both done a phenomenal job. I’d hate to lose either of them, but I would highly recommend both of them that they’re ready to take the next step. I think they’ve show that they can lead and do the coordinator job at a high level, both of them. You’d hate to lose both of those guys, but when you win and you have sustained success like we’ve been able to have the last two seasons, that’s what happens.”‘

‘”His arm is just— I mean, he has a top-five arm… he’s super strong, and he knows how to use his body to help him get a lot of throws off and stuff like that, so I would say 100-plus.”‘

‘With his sixth-career AFC Offensive Player of the Week honor, Allen moves past Hall of Fame running back Thurman Thomas (five) for the second-most Offensive Player of the Week awards in Bills history. He just trails Hall of Fame quarterback Jim Kelly for the most in team history with 10.’

‘Cuomo said on Tuesday that the New York State Department of Health was looking at an “experimental model” that would allow fans back at Bills Stadium this winter. He explained that the state is working with the Bills, and that it’s all a work in progress.’

‘”Those were some of my best years. Just from the city, the team. I live an hour away from Philadelphia so that was always like home to me. Lot of my most memorable moments and great times are from the Philadelphia area. I played with so many great players there like Mike Vick, [Brian] Westbrook, [DeSean Jackson], [Jeremy] Maclin, I could name guys forever. Philadelphia was always a special, special place. When I got traded, it hurt me a little bit deep. Andy Reid has always been great to me and my family. He took a shot on me in the second round and it worked out. Very thankful and grateful for that.”‘

‘“We are talking to the Bills,” Cuomo said. “We are researching teams and protocols across the nation. The Department of Health is looking at an ‘experimental model’ of working with data and testing to see if there’s any way we could safely allow some fans into the game. We’re working with the Bills. It’s all a work in progress.”’

‘This billboard is a result of Bills fans winning the NFL on FOX “Ultimate Fan Bracket” back on Twitter before the 2020 season in September. As a result, Bills fans were awarded a billboard that could be placed anywhere in the world, and, of course, they chose Foxborough, Massachusetts.’

‘Due to the Covid-19 pandemic, there is no actual Pro Bowl game this year. Instead, there will be week-long virtual event with celebrities, NFL Legends, current players, and streamers playing as the Pro Bowl rosters on the Madden NFL 21 video game. Therefore, players on the Super Bowl teams could still take part.’

‘We’ve always sat back and watched parade-after-parade-after-parade in all these other places. I think about that little kid sometimes in Boston who shows up to all of their championship parades with his sign that says how many times his teams have won a title since he’s been born. It’s nauseating.’

‘”Large gatherings should concern everyone,” said New York Governor Andrew Cuomo over the weekend and after the “Bills Mafia” turned out by the thousands at the airport to welcome home the AFC East champs.’

‘Following Saturday’s win, Adam Zyglis – a cartoonist for The Buffalo News – drew a photo of Allen literally digging the Patriots’ grave for their 20-year stretch of dominance over the division. Of course, the drawing makes an appropriate mention of “Diggs” – Bills wide receiver Stefon Diggs, who had 11 catches for 147 yards on Saturday.’
