NFL.com survey names Bills’ Sean McDermott Coach of the Year — Nick Wojton, Bills Wire
"“The actual award is chosen by media members across the country later this year. But a survey of 24 anonymous front office executives voted on the end of season awards well ahead of the actual vote via the league’s website.”"
This could be a foreshadowing of the actual award. McDermott is winning with great defense and has slowed down some of the best in the game. This season has been a great example of how prepared he was for this job when hired before the 2017 season.
Bills’ Ed Oliver ‘hurting’ over Jordan Phillips’ Pro Bowl snub — Matt Parrino, Syracuse.com
"“If you didn’t vote for Jordan Phillips, you’re not my friend. I’m sorry,” Oliver said. “Let’s see, he has 9 1/2 sacks. Who else has more than that? Aaron Donald, maybe (and) he’s one of the best in the game.”"
Ed Oliver has a point. Jordan Phillips, who wasn’t as upset as Oliver, has the most sacks in the AFC this season and is doing it from an interior position. That’s a great season and he should have been named to the Pro Bowl.
Bills QB Josh Allen’s selfie with fans finds home at Buffalo art museum — Marcel Louis-Jacques, ESPN
"“The Albright-Knox Art Gallery is closed while it undergoes an expansion, but it has made an addition to its exhibits: a screenshot of a selfie Bills quarterback Josh Allen took with the fans waiting for the team early Monday morning at Buffalo-Niagara International Airport.”"
This was a cool moment as Josh Allen was thoroughly impressed by the fans support at 2 a.m. in the freezing cold. He stopped and spent some time with the fans and even posted on Twitter hos special it was. Now it will be remembered in Bills hostory.
