Thad’s Three Things: Bills at Ravens
‘The Bills have always done a good job against Henry and Jackson. In eight starts against a Sean McDermott defense, the two have combined for only one 80 yard rushing game. Jackson is yet to reach even 170 yards passing (albeit with 2 of 3 Lamar starts in some sort of brutal weather).’

‘”Smart, fast and physical,” Babich explained. “…we had these made for the guys. Said, if you believe in it, wear it. If you don’t, give it back.”‘

‘”They play extremely hard,” Allen said. “They’re extremely well-coached. They do a great job in stopping the run… Hamilton’s flying around, making plays. Their DBs are always in good positions, and again, two-time MVP Lamar at quarterback, so we gotta make sure that we’re holding onto the ball and scoring when we have our opportunities.”‘

Ryan O'Halloran: Devin McCourty says Josh Allen is why football 'so awesome, great'
‘“I remember it was a lot of more fun playing him when he was a young pup than it was playing him at the end of my career,” McCourty said. “You see a guy come in and is super talented, has all the gifts you want and everybody is complaining about the mistakes he makes – too many turnovers, tries to make too many plays – but you saw a progression, year by year, of less mistakes and even more big plays. It’s been fun to watch and see his growth.”’
Bills linebackers coach Al Holcomb infuses his 'Al-isms' into lessons – and they're paying off
‘In the meantime, Holcomb seems to have gotten the most of his reserves. Playing in Milano’s place, second-year pro Dorian Williams leads the team with 30 tackles. Baylon Spector, a third-year pro stepping in for Bernard, had 10 tackles in Miami and six tackles Monday against Jacksonville.’
Bills injury report: CB Kaiir Elam a full participant; LB Terrel Bernard improving, but ruled out
‘Cornerback Kaiir Elam (neck) was a full participant in Friday’s practice and does not have an injury designation for the game.’
Voice of the fan: Josh Allen is cooking, and the Bills' 3-0 start has been downright delectable
‘Beane has now prepared quite the bill of fare: a fusion of one of the best offensive lines in the league, re-signing right tackle Spencer Brown, who has yet to allow a pressure in three games, and having endless mid- and late-round draft picks and free agents step up whenever necessary.’
Ravens the 1st of 3 straight big Bills tests
‘But if the first three weeks weren’t the most difficult, the next three should put that perfect record to test: all on the road, all against three opponents it’s easy to envision in the playoff field come January. If they get through the next three at 6-0, or even 5-1, it’ll be easy to anoint them as AFC favorites, or at least on par with Kansas City.’
How a phone call led to the Bills bringing back a coach who’s meant everything for their offense
‘“I got a call from Sean, and he asked me about Aaron,” said former Bills Pro Bowl center Eric Wood. “I was like, you guys will get along. And I think he’s the best offensive line coach in the league, and I think you should hire him.”’
Bills OL Alec Anderson carving a niche as a jumbo tight end, but when will he catch a pass?
‘Over the last three seasons, Anderson has gone from the practice squad to making the 53-man roster last year — but didn’t play in a regular-season game — to now being the team’s most versatile backup. An offensive tackle at UCLA, Anderson is listed as Buffalo’s primary backup at left guard, right guard and center and even played five snaps at left tackle when reserve Tylan Grable injured his groin late in the game Monday.’
