‘”We go out each & every game to play fearless. We try to go out there & not think, make plays, play fast. I think last week, after the loss in Cleveland, coach preached that a lot. He said we have to continue to go out there, we put all this film study in throughout the week so that we can go out there Sunday & play fast.”‘

‘”I always go back to when Michael Vick was on his ascension in the early years with the Falcons and there was a crowd of people saying don’t run,” Brandt said.’

‘“Very proud of him,” head coach Sean McDermott said of Edmunds during his weekly Monday press conference. “I mentioned at length about and talked at length about his youth. Just [in his] second year, middle of the second year, Josh [Allen] the same way and sometimes you forget that. But to see him take ownership and stand up and address his teammates, very mature type of approach and then he backed it up with his play.”’

‘Josh Allen would shine against the Dolphins once again, throwing for 256 yards and three touchdowns, two of which went to John Brown, who reeled in 9 catches and 137 yards in addition to those touchdowns. Devin Singletary led all players with 75 rushing yards. The Bills defense flexed its muscles as well, as they sacked Ryan Fitzpatrick seven times, all by different defenders, while allowing just 23 yards rushing in the entire game.’

‘The defense harassed former Bill Ryan Fitzpatrick all day. The blitzes were too much for Miami’s offensive line to handle and the Bills sacked Fitzpatrick seven times. They held the Dolphins running game to just 23 yards on 13 carries.’

‘Brown continued his outstanding season, and getting an Arrow Up ever single week from me. He had his third-highest catch total in a game with 9 and his third-most yards with 137. He scored 2 TDs. Brown was a problem for the Dolphins secondary all afternoon and Allen did a great job of targeting him as much as he could. He had the second-most targets of his career with 14 balls thrown to him.’

‘Simply put, the Bills offense just hasn’t scored enough points, and last week against the Cleveland Browns it finally came back to bite them.’

‘”All of us together, coaches and players, let’s do what we’ve got to do, do it how we normally do it and be decisive. It’s not getting to playing hesitant. When you play this game, because it is an aggressive game, it’s a contact sport – if you hesitate, you lose in most situations. So, I want our team playing fast, playing physical and playing aggressive with great decisiveness and clarity around what’s expected on each play in their roles, in particular.”‘

‘“He came to the building and was working out with Jamal,” White explained when asked how the relationship began, referring to former Tiger and current Jets safety Jamal Adams. “I needed some work, so I just jumped in. The relationship started from there and it’s been strong ever since. I owe him a lot for the success I’m having because of the way he trained me even before the draft, before the senior bowl, and then obviously after the draft going into camp. I’ve been training with him for the last 4-5 years. It’s been good.”’

‘Buffalo and Pittsburgh are scheduled to face-off Week 15 which will be crucial in the race for a Wild Card spot. Having the head to head tie-breaker is important but the Steelers dropping another game helps the chances that it won’t need to come down to that.’

‘“Coach sat us all down today and said, ‘play fearless,’ Allen said. “So to have that green light, and that confidence from him still, that means a lot. Not saying I’m going go out there and be reckless, those are two different terms for a reason. Just being very aware of what’s going on but not trying to be gun-shy about anything.”’

‘Although many parts of Allen’s play has raised serious doubts about him as the Bills face of the franchise, this week’s matchup is still a reminder that between Allen and the fan-preferred Rosen, Buffalo made the right call.’

‘The offense can’t sleepwalk through four quarters for a second straight game.’

‘This is the first time the Bills will play on a Saturday, that isn’t Christmas Eve, since falling to the Broncos on December 17th, 2005. Since then, the Bills have played three times on on Christmas Eve Saturday, most recently in 2016 against Miami.’

‘“We were in a two-minute play, we wanted to get it to our best ‘gotta have it’ type of play that we have,” Daboll said of huddling. “We ran it earlier in the game. We threw it to Dawson [Knox] on a little under route, where he picked it up on third-and-two. And you know, on this play, they played blitz zero and failed to connect.”’
