‘”I feel ok. Each day just trying to get better. It’s a big game, man, so I’m trying to get out there.”’

‘Housley has experienced what it’s like when things go well and he said, “I know the Buffalo fans and our community. You can see the energy that it’s bringing, not only to the Bills, but for us as well. It’s great that they finally broke that seal and got back in the playoffs.”’

‘For the Bills, LeSean McCoy, Matt Milano and Shareece Wright have all missed their second straight practice of the week. McCoy’s status has already been speculated to be a game-time decision with his ankle injury.’

‘“I’ve moved on from that,” Marrone said. “It’s been a while ago. They’re where they want to be and I’m where I want to be and we’re getting our team ready. I’m focused on my team and this game. That’s really all my focus is. My focus is not about what’s gone on in my past, whether it be Buffalo or Syracuse or New Orleans or the New York Jets or wherever I may have been.”’

‘Here’s the Wednesday injury report for the Bills and Jaguars…’.

‘“We’re just going to take it one day at a time right now,” McDermott said.’

‘“Because each year, that year in the league, it’s a new team,” he told me while standing in front of his locker Wednesday as the Bills get ready to face the Jaguars in the AFC Wild Card game Sunday in Jacksonville. “You learn so much about these guys, and coming here and kind of going through the transition that I did and kind of being frustrated at the beginning – not with the team – but just with the whole free agency thing, and it’s just a blessing in disguise, it really is, coming here and learning a lot about these guys.”‘

‘If LeSean McCoy isn’t able to go on Sunday, we could likely see Aaron Green activated to the active roster and dressed for the game. With Travaris Cadet on injured reserve, just Marcus Murphy and Mike Tolbert remain at running back.’

‘Gaine had interviewed with the Bills for their GM job last offseason, which eventually went to Brandon Beane. He had also interviewed with the Eagles, Bears, Jets, and 49ers for GM openings in the past. Gaine has nineteen years of personnel experience in the NFL.’

‘Streater had a heck of a training camp, and many believed he was one of, if not, the most consistent receiver in camp. At the time, Streater provided vertical speed the Bills didn’t have. Deonte Thompson now fills that role, but Streater could give some depth to that spot down the line.’

‘On watching the Ravens lose, after beating Miami: “I think it was a neat environment to be a part of with our team. Being able to watch the final moments of the Bengals game knowing how important that was for us to get in and needing that game. And then just to experience the reception we got when we came home.”‘

‘On playing against his former coach Doug Marrone: “I don’t think we need any extra incentive this week. The passion will come regardless of the circumstances. So many on our team have no affiliation to Doug Marrone.”‘

‘I’m not sure the Bills are any better a team than they’ve been the last three seasons. Their final point differential of minus-57 is their worst since 2012; from 2014-2016 the Bills were always in the positives. By point differential the Bills are one of the worst-ever playoff teams. However, teams at the “top” of that list happened to win their first playoff games. The 2010 Seahawks were a minus-92, and the 2011 Broncos were a minus-81. Both won weak divisions to get in, and both won first-round games at home.’

‘The Bills defense got in on the scoring with 6 minutes to go in the 4th. As Jarvis Landry reched for the goalline, he fumbled the ball. Preston Brown picked it up, and went 99 yards for the touchdown, making it 29-3. But. The play was reviewed and it was determined that Landry was out of bounds before the ball came out. Landry scored on the next play, and head butted Jordan Poyer sparking a brawl. Every flag and hat from the refs were on the field. Kenyan Drake got tossed for throwing a Bills helmet as far as he could, while Landry was also ejected from the game. Multpile personal fouls resulted from the play.’

‘Did I mention that the drought is dead?’
