‘This move could be an indicator that defensive tackle DaQuan Jones is ready to return from Injured Reserve, as he battles back from a pectoral injury suffered in a Week 5 loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars.’

Bills playoff scenarios come into focus
‘Just a few weeks ago, most sites that calculate NFL team’s playoff chances had the Bills pegged at below 20% to get into the postseason. But with the help of a three-game winning streak, they can actually clinch a berth this weekend with a win and a little help.’
Opinion: Simon: Bills put us through some major pre-Christmas stress
‘Six days after obliterating a very good Dallas defense, the Bills offense wasn’t the same but they made enough key plays, including a game winning field goal drive late in the fourth quarter, to compliment another strong performance from the Bills defense. Josh Allen completed just 15 passes and was off target on a few throws. Stefon Diggs managed a mere 29 yards on five catches and the running game produced only 105 yards on 30 carries.’
Tyler Bass’ late field goal lifts Bills over Chargers in Los Angeles
‘It was Josh Allen leading the way for Buffalo with 252 scrimmage yards and three total touchdowns. Meanwhile, Tyler Bass kicked the go-ahead 29-yard field goal in the game’s waning moments to help the Bills improve to 9-6 on the 2023 season.’
McDermott proud of teams ‘gritty performance’ against the Chargers
‘”I thought our guys settled in and responded.” McDermott said after the 24-22 win over the Chargers. “I think we did a good job in the red zone third down as well and and had some big plays on those third downs as well to help us out.”‘
Allen: ‘This is our playoffs’
‘”They came out and they played hard. They had a really good game plan,” Allen said. “It’s tough, because when you’re playing a team with nothing to lose, that’s a dangerous team. That was a dangerous team we played today. We gutted it out and we found a way.”‘
Opinion: Arrow Up/Arrow Down: Bills at Chargers
‘After a terrific performance just a week ago, the Bills ran for 105 yards on 30 carries, averaging just 3.5 yards per run.’
Chargers are proof to Bills fans, it could be worse
‘Despite not being the most mobile, Herbert does everything he can to lift the Chargers out of obscurity. He makes multiple throws every week that can make anyone’s jaw hit the floor. Yet, the Chargers have done everything to screw it up around him. Brandon Staley developed into probably the worst coach in the NFL.’
Opinion: Capaccio: Bills at Chargers: Sal’s keys, notes and stats
‘The Chargers have fired their head coach and replaced him with an interim head coach. They’re coming off an embarrassing defeat on national television. They would love to bounce-back and show the country that wasn’t indicative of who they are. The best way for the Bills to not let that happen is to jump on them early, let them know it will be a tough night, and give them no hope to all the upset.’
Bills place Jordan Phillips on Injured Reserve
‘The move means Phillips in ineligible to play in any of the final three regular season games, and must also sit out the Wild Card Round of the players, should the Bills make it to the postseason. He would be first eligible to return in the Divisional Round of the playoffs.’
McDermott: Bills have to be ready for Chargers’ best on Saturday
‘”There’s some unknowns, we’re not really sure what to expect schematically, there’s not much table quarterback. So we have to go out there expecting their best,” said McDermott during his weekly appearance on the “Extra Point Show” on WGR. “Typically teams bounce back from situations [like this], and we’ve got to be ready to play.”‘
James Cook misses Wednesday’s practice due to illness
‘Cook was the only new addition to the team’s official injury report, which saw 15 total players listed. This included six players who were full participants and another six who were limited.’
James Cook named AFC Offensive Player of the Week
‘Cook put up an impressive stat line of 221 yards of total offense, 179 rushing yards, and 42 receiving yards. Along with that, he recorded a receiving touchdown and rushing touchdown. This play earned him the AFC Offensive Player Of The Week award for the first time in his career.’
Opinion: Bills grades: Week 15 vs. Cowboys
‘What can you say about an aspect of the game that wasn’t really used? Dalton Kincaid had some tough drops. Gabe Davis didn’t locate the ball on a fly route and fight back to it. Stefon Diggs had a sick one-handed grab. Josh Allen threw a dot to James Cook for a touchdown.’
