‘While we don’t know the specific diagnosis or extent just yet, a pectoral injury can be serious and longer-term. DaQuan Jones missed twelve games last year with his torn pec. If the Bills lose Bernard for that length of time, along with Matt Milano already out long-term, it will be a significant blow.’

‘The Bills defense looked to make a statement against a fast and furious Miami offense. After a few good stops, the defense cam through with cornerback Christian Benford tipping a ball into Ja’Marcus Ingram’s hands where he returned it to the Miami 47-yard-line for 23 yards.’

‘They did all of that with a secondary that included two sixth round draft picks(Christian Benford and Damar Hamlin and two undrafted free agents(Cam Lewis and Ja’Marcus Ingram). The Bills find talent wherever and whenever they can and then coaches develop those players on the job. That’s how the best teams in the NFL keep winning.’

‘Rousseau started hot out of the gate with a six-tackle performance, which included a career-best three sacks of Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray. One of those sacks also resulted in a forced turnover in the third quarter of Buffalo’s 34-28 win at Highmark Stadium.’

‘The Bills will need to make them work for everything they get, and not give up free, big plays. Every snap they force Miami to take is another chance to make a defensive play.’

‘”Typically against the Dolphins with their high-powered offense, it’s about points, not yards, and then taking care of the football,” McDermott explained. “You look at the games that we’ve played, the first game last season, we were able to take the ball away and score, and score touchdowns rather than field goals. In the second game, we had yards, but not as many points. So it’s points over yards, and making sure we take care of the ball.”‘

‘The Bills quarterback wore a glove on his left hand during the session, clearly visible during the media-viewing portion of practice on a beautiful, sunny day outside the ADPRO Sports Training Center.’

‘Allen has made a living making the unreal seem common, and a damn good living doing so. However, those comments mark that he will someday make that decision to fly, and it becomes more of an educated wish instead of his usual schtick.’

‘It felt, to me, like the Cardinals left some plays out there against the safety tandem of Taylor Rapp and Damar Hamlin. That bears watching, especially going to play the Miami Dolphins on a short week.’

‘”Josh injured his hand in the fourth quarter. He was looked at and went back in and functioned. After the game, he was looked at again, and he’s been cleared to practice today and cleared to play in the game,” detailed McDermott ahead of Monday’s walk-through practice in Orchard Park.’

‘For the Bills, nickel cornerback Taron Johnson did not participate with a forearm injury. He has already been declared out for Thursday’s game by head coach Sean McDermott.’

‘In the closing minutes of the first half, the Buffalo offense needed to get something going with a touchdown drive. Allen and company were able to do just that, as the Bills quarterback rushed to the right for a seven-yard touchdown to cut the deficit to 17-10 before halftime.’

‘”We weren’t very good at all. Some of it was that they were getting into third-and-manageable situations and that goes back to winning first and second down. I thought Bobby and the defensive staff did a great job at half time addressing it and making some adjustments and I think we came out better in the second half. We played a little bit more our style of defense and were a little bit more aggressive and just playing and having some fun out there as opposed to waiting and reacting to what they were doing.”‘

‘”Don’t blink, we’ve been here before,” said Allen on Sunday following the win in Orchard Park. “We knew we were getting the ball at halftime. We get the ball, find a way to score points before and after the half. And coach [Sean] McDermott preaches that all of the time, that’s good situational football by all of our guys.”‘

‘After a very careless lost fumble, where Josh Allen had all day to throw and then didn’t protect the ball, he totally took over the game, accounting for four touchdowns.’
