‘McDermott noted another problem was a lack of variety on the offensive side of the ball and that the team was too one dimensional. “I felt like we got a little bit too one-dimensional at times, and they’ve got a good defensive front,” McDermott said.’

Allen frustrated with himself yet again after loss to Jets
‘”Its the NFL these guys that were playing are a good team too. They get paid just like us. Away team facing a crowd, we let them get into it with the play that we had. We made some mistakes tonight, I made some mistakes tonight, and that can’t happen.”‘
Opinion: Arrow Up/Arrow Down: Bills at Jets
‘For the second week in-a-row, the Bills’ run defense was far too leaky, allowing 174 yards on 34 carries for a 5.1 per-carry average.The Jets were especially effective in the second half running the ball, gaining 112 yards and averaging 5.2 yards per-run.’
Opinion: Capaccio: Bills at Jets: Sal’s keys, notes, and stats
‘According to Pro Football Reference, the Bills have only blitzed 14.7% of their team’s defensive snaps, second-fewest in the NFL. However, despite that rate, they are fifth in the NFL in sacks per pass attempt, getting to the opposing QB on 8.9% of their dropbacks. They’ll want to keep getting pressure on Wilson and force him into the same mistakes he’s been making.’
McDermott: Nyheim Hines offers us position flexibility
‘“He offers the flexibility that we value,” said McDermott during his weekly appearance on the “Extra Point Show” on WGR. “On top of that, he seems, to me, at this point, a tremendous human being of high character.”’
Bills banged up on defense
‘Safety Jordan Poyer and linebacker Matt Milano both missed their second straight day as Poyer deals with an elbow injury and Milano an oblique injury.’
Jordan Poyer, Matt Milano both day-to-day due to injury
‘Neither player practiced during Wednesday’s practice. Milano wasn’t present at all during the media-available portion of the session, while Poyer was off to the side working with trainers.’
Bills trade Zack Moss, conditional sixth-round pick to Colts for Nyheim Hines
‘The Bills will have Hines under contract for the rest of the 2022 season, and two more years after that with an out clause after this season.’
Bills bring back safety Dean Marlowe in trade with Atlanta
‘Marlowe spent a total of four seasons with the Bills from 2017-20, appearing in 26 games with Buffalo serving primarily as a depth safety behind Micah Hyde and Jordan Poyer. In those four seasons, the 30-year-old registered 38 combined tackles, 1.5 sacks, two quarterback hits, and two interceptions.’
Bills to activate White; evaluating injuries to Poyer, Milano
‘White hasn’t played this season, as he continues to recover from a torn ACL suffered last Thanksgiving night in New Orleans against the Saints.’
Opinion: Ho-hum, nothing to see here
‘A 24-7 halftime lead had the Orchard Park party peaking until a neighbor called the cops. The cops, in this case, being the Green Bay Packers, who decided the only way to not end up as roadkill was to hold onto the ball tightly and for extended periods of time.’
Opinion: Capaccio: Arrow Up/Arrow Down: Packers at Bills
‘The Bills obviously did not want to get beaten by Aaron Rodgers through the air, and having a lead allowed them their safeties to hang back a bit. But it also allowed the Packers to gash them in the run game for a total of 208 yards on the ground, far too much. Green Bay averaged a huge 6.7 yards per carry.’
Allen frustrated with himself even after Bills win
‘”I got a little out of the groove and just did some uncharacteristic things, can’t make those decisions. The only way that team gets back in it is by turning the ball over.”‘
Bills shine bright under Sunday night lights with win over Packers
‘Although the Buffalo offense was spotty throughout the game, the defense remained strong to help the Bills improve to 6-1 this season and earn a fourth-straight win.’
McDermott: High expectations need to be met every game
‘”I don’t think our whole football team right now, myself included is where we wanna be. We did some things tonight that are uncharacteristic of how we do things. We’ve got a week to get those things worked out here.” McDermott said, “It’s hard to win and it’s good to win whenever you do win so I don’t want to overlook that. There was a lot of things in tonight’s game that needed work.”‘
