‘While the defensive line should be able to pin their ears back against the Giants offensive line, they also have to be very aware of Taylor‘s escapability and need to stay disciplined to not let him make plays out of structure to allow drives to continue.’

‘”Brian and I knew each other back when he was coaching at William and Mary in [Virginia]. That’s where we first got introduced to one another and stayed in touch from that point on,” said McDermott on Friday during his visit on the “Extra Point Show” on WGR. “Obviously he grew under Bill Belichick, I grew and under Andy Reid. Two good foundations from which to grow from, and Brian’s a good coach. We’re happy for him and happy for [general manager] Joe Schoen, as well. They’ve earned those jobs.”‘

‘For the Giants, starting quarterback Daniel Jones missed his second-straight day of practice with a neck injury, which means former Bills quarterback Tyrod Taylor could be in line to start.’

‘Cornerback Dane Jackson did not participate in Wednesday’s walk-through session with a foot injury.’

‘”Like I’ve said before multiple times, you never replace a player,” said McDermott on Wednesday. “I don’t like to get into comparing players, I don’t think that’s healthy. Overall, it’s the job of the person who is stepping in to do the job, and we have full confidence in that player, whoever that player is. A piece of this is those guys can’t play, they’re not able to play. A piece of it is playing for those guys too, because they were a big piece of this team, and still are, but they can’t help it so much now. So we play for them.”‘

‘Roth served as D’Angelo’s boss.’

‘Rushing Offense – F. Awful. Ken Dorsey continues shoving James Cook up the middle with sprint draws. Only 29 rushing yards as a team. Next.’

‘According to Bills head coach Sean McDermott during his weekly Zoom call with the media on Monday, both linebacker Matt Milano and defensive tackle DaQuan Jones will require surgery to address significant injuries sustained Sunday, and are out of the Buffalo lineup indefinitely.’

‘Norman spent the 2020 season with the Bills, where he appeared in nine games, starting three of them, accounting for 24 total tackles, two tackles for loss, four passes defended, an interception, a forced fumble and two fumble recoveries. His one interception also resulted in a defensive touchdown.’

‘But man, did they ever miss White and Benford. Elam is a disaster.’

‘This time, the Bills trailed early and never got the momentum on their side in a 25-20 loss to the Jaguars at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.’

‘Milano was seen on the broadcast needing assistance getting to the blue medical tent on the sidelines, and was shortly after ruled out for the game. He was also carted off the sidelines and back to the locker room for further evaluation.’

‘The Jaguars were able to control a majority of Sunday’s contest, as their offense totaled 474 yards on the day, and also controlled the game clock with 38:12 in time of possession compared to Buffalo’s 21:48.’

‘”Little bit of tempo and just trusting what we were seeing on film, and getting to a good place, I guess,” said Allen on Sunday following the loss. “We came out late in that third quarter, early fourth and felt like we had some more urgency, and we didn’t have that early on in the game. So we’ve got to be better with that.”‘

‘The Bills defense had its worst tackling performance of the season. It was especially an issue late in the game, as they were obviously tired.’
