‘McDermott on preparing to defend Murray: “I think the word that comes to mind is unique. Mobility is one thing, but a unique type of mobility with quickness, speed and a lot of arm talent to boot. It will be a big challenge for us defensively and as a team.”‘

‘The only player who didn’t practice at all either day was running back/special teamer Taiwan Jones, who is dealing with a knee injury.’

‘No media nor fans knew of the passing of his Allen’s grandmother before or during the game. It was only after the contest when Bills head coach Sean McDermott revealed the situation in his postgame press conference.’

‘This is the fourth time that Allen has been named as the AFC Offensive Player of the Week in his three-year career, and he joins Hall of Famers Jim Kelly and Thurman Thomas as the only other Bills players to earn AFC Offensive Player of the Week honors twice in the same season.’

‘”This year in particular it’s obviously been a challenge for all hospitals. There’s so much work done day-in and day-out whether it be treatments or activities or finding new equipment that rely heavily on community support. Insurance doesn’t cover everything that goes on at Oishei, and when the community steps up to make these kinds of donations it leads to a very real and lasting impact.”‘

‘“That game put him back into the top-five for the season in terms of [Pro Football Focus] grades,” PFF analyst Sam Monson said on The DA Show on CBS Sports Radio. “He had slipped out of that group. He was in there during his incredible run at the start of the year, and then the last few games had dragged his grade down and pulled him away from the very top quarterbacks in the NFL. But he jumped back into that group with that game against Seattle.”’

‘”You can’t forget about Stefon Diggs,” Marshall said. “He’s not the No. 1 wide receiver, but we don’t talk about him enough. That’s a guy that can beat one-on-one coverage over, and over, and over again.”‘

‘Even though three different offensive linemen and their star cornerback left Sunday’s 44-34 win over the Seattle Seahawks Sunday with injuries, Buffalo Bills head coach Sean McDermott said on Monday most of the injuries suffered were “day-to-day type injuries,” but added, “nothing new overall on the injury front.”‘

‘Back when the two were division rivals in the AFC East, Adams didn’t seem particularly impressed with Allen’s skill set, expressing his disdain on Twitter (props to Sporting News for digging these up).’

‘Some have a great player – or a few. But even with those great ones, the gap to the next group isn’t very wide. Oh, there’s no doubt the best quarterbacks and having a collection of some of the more superior talent will make a difference. That’s why teams win 13 or 14 games, and win multiple Super Bowls over a period of years.’

‘Josh Allen played, arguably, his best game of the season, and maybe one of the best of his career so far. The 24-year-old ended the day throwing for three touchdowns, running for another, and finishing with over 400 passing yards for the second time this season.’

‘The shocking storyline from the Bills’ 44-34 win has to be the defensive effort. Getting to Wilson five times, getting four turnovers, holding them to 3-for-12 on third downs, and holding the D.K. Metcalf/Tyler Lockett duo to 148 yards and a score is a huge win for a Bills defensive unit struggling to find the success Bills fans have grown accustomed to during Sean McDermott’s first four seasons.’

‘Getting a win over a competitive, talented and well-coached team, that’s a true contender in the NFC, should give this Bills team a huge boost. With the performances we saw from Allen, a fully-healthy John Brown and the defense, there could be a lot more to look forward to as we now hit the back half of the regular season.’

‘Holy cow was Allen good in this one, especially in the first half. The Bills’ quarterback started incredibly hot and stayed that way for most of it, connecting on 13 of 15 first quarter passes, and 24 of 28 in the first half for 282 yards by halftime. He only threw ten passes in the second half, but still connected on seven of them to finish 31-for-38 (81.5%) for 415 yards and 3 TD passes. Allen added another 14 yards and one touchdown rushing, for a four TD day.’

‘Despite the Bills having a bye week after their Week 10 matchup with the Cardinals in Arizona, the NFL’s amended collective bargaining agreement says Milano must sit out three games.’
