White named AFC Defensive Player of the Week
‘White has also been tough to throw against this year with the lowest passer rating allowed among players targeted 20 times or more.’
Hyde descibes “the play” in detail
‘“I’m a ball guy. I’m not looking at anything but the ball. I know that kicker in the past has had that high bounce. In the last couple of games they’ve been down and they’ve been going for onside kicks, so he showed that on film, and I’m not looking at anybody. I’m literally looking at the ball, trying to go up and get it. I did that and kind of just landed on my feet.”’
Catching the Eagles at the right time
‘The Philadelphia secondary has given up the third most passing yards in the NFL. Teams have been able to complete eight 40+ yard completions on the Eagles.’
Micah Hyde on boos: “You don’t want to hear that”
‘”As a player, it’s kind of difficult to hear. We love Bills Mafia, we know what they can do for us. At home games getting loud, away games traveling, making it a home game. You don’t want to hear that, you want them to be by your side, but I get the frustration at that moment. We would like them to be by our side.”‘
Bills score 22 points in the 4th quarter to beat Miami, 31-21
‘It didn’t come easily for Buffalo, as the winless Dolphins (0-6) put quite the scare into the Bills and their fans. Josh Allen started off slowly en route to 16-of-26 for just 202 yards and 2 touchdowns, but was turnover free for the game. Frank Gore ran for 55 yards on 11 carries, while John Brown reeled in 5 receptions for 83 yards and a touchdown. Cole Beasley caught his first touchdown for the Bills in the win.’
The Bills’ Tre White comes up huge in win over the Dolphins
‘White is a lockdown corner who has the talent to make big plays. White has pressure on him because the Bills traded down and took him instead of drafting Patrick Mahomes. In the end they wound up basically with White, Allen and Tremaine Edmunds. To me White is totally up the challenge and is on the verge of being an All-Pro.’
Tense, at least for a while
‘The Philadelphia Eagles comes to town next, and while they’ve been inconsistent so far this season, they do represent the second-best opponent the Bills have seen so far this season. At least that’s how I see it.’
Bills get a win we all expected
‘The passing game did not have the big day I was anticipating, and it was surprising given the fact the Dolphins defense has been awful through its first five games. They also went into this matchup down two of its starters in the secondary. Josh Allen and company were able to move the ball in the first half, but unable to finish drives by getting into the end zone. At times, it was Allen missing a target, or not seeing an open receiver.’
Can Josh Allen figure out the deep ball?
‘In two seasons with Buffalo, Allen has struggled to utilize that arm talent while to the surprise of many, taking significant steps in the short and intermediate areas of the passing game.’
Arrow Up/Arrow Down – Dolphins at Bills
‘Just seemed like Bills office of coordinator Brian Daboll got way too cute in the first half. Too many times he called for designed Josh Allen runs, then called a low percentage pass on 3rd and 1 while inside the Dolphins red zone.’
What to watch for: Bills-Dolphins
‘The Dolphins are 0-5. The Bills are 4-1. Buffalo is a 17-point favorite, but this is the NFL and we’ve all seen teams lose in this situation. In fact, the last two time the Bills were 17-point favorites, they lost.’
McDermott – We’ve been able to move the ball and play well in critical moments
‘”We’ve got to continue building a good, strong foundation the right way on both of those phases, offense and special teams, in order to get to where we’re trying to get to this year, next year and the year after, as we continue to grow and try to play better each week.”‘
Bills/Dolphins injury reports
‘In addition to Brown, linebackers Matt Milano (hamstring) and Corey Thompson (ankle) were also limited, while every other player on the team was a full particpant. RB Frank Gore received a veteran rest day.’
Mahomes injury could significantly change the Bills’ approach
‘Outside of the New England Patriots, what team is clearly superior to the Bills? Who is seen as a clear-cut favorite to represent the conference in the Super Bowl?’
