'A Lot Of Pride In Winning At Home'

Sean McDermott’s opening statement following Buffalo’s Week 15 win over Miami: First of all, a big-time thank you to everyone, again, that got this stadium ready to play both in the stadium and outside the stadium. It was a great team effort. Secondly, and not to be outdone, our fans did a tremendous job this year at home, 6-2 record. It’s a step in the right direction in reestablishing who we are and how we play at home. That was big for us. Finally, congrats to LeSean McCoy on 10,000 yards (rushing). 30th player in NFL history [to do so]. A great accomplishment. Tremendous.

Q: What’s that do for your confidence to do that to them after they beat New England pretty handily?

SM: We take them one at a time, really. We do, with all due respect to your question. This is a team that we’re going to face in two weeks here again and they’re a good football team so we’ve got a lot of work to do, as you saw, and we’ve got to get back at work.

Q: This is the first time you’ve won six games at home since the last time you went to the playoffs. How much does that mean to you to really establish the home field here?

SM: Yeah, that’s huge. That’s huge. We know how important winning at home is. The guys talk about it a lot. We talk a lot about defending our dirt. That’s something that’s out there, that’s a saying that’s out there now. Playing in Western New York, you’ve heard me say it before, it’s a special place to play in this stadium and in front of our fans here. Can’t say enough about it in terms of the effort that the fans put forth to come and support us and stuck by us all season long. Kyle (Williams) did a great job last night talking to the team about what it means to play here and I think the players took it to heart, took a lot of pride in it.

1st & Ten with STEFON DIGGS

Stefon Diggs had one of the best seasons ever by a Bills receiver in 2020, and he’s looking for an encore. Diggs was clearly amped up and ready to go as the Bills began their preparations for the new season, leading the huddle and supporting his teammates as they kicked off training camp in Orchard Park. Diggs recently touched on his goals for the upcoming season for both himself and the team in an informative discussion with members of the media. Here are the highlights from that discussion.

RUNNING BACKS: TOP AVAILABLE FREE AGENTS

Aaron Jones, Packers 5-9 • 208 pounds • 27 years old A fifth-round steal in the 2017 draft out of UTEP, Jones is equally proficient in the running and passing games. He rushed for more than 1,000 yards the last two years, and caught 49 and 47 passes, respectively. He’s also a touchdown machine with 30 TDs the last two years (25 rushing and 5 receiving). The son of two career Army officers, he’s a tough, driven player and the kind of guy players want on their team.

QUARTERBACKS: TOP AVAILABLE FREE AGENTS

Dak Prescott, Cowboys 6-2 • 235 pounds • 27 years old A solid starter who has a nice TD-INT ratio over his first five seasons (104-40), Prescott is an accurate thrower and very mobile. However, he’s coming off a compound fracture and dislocation of his right ankle, so it remains to be seen if this will impact his game moving forward.

Hunter Henry, Chargers 6-5 • 250 pounds • 29 years old A very talented player, Henry has had issues staying healthy, unable to complete an NFL season, including missing the entire 2018 season with a torn ACL. But when healthy, he’s a terrific all-around tight end who really connected with Justin Herbert in 2020 with 60 catches. Henry is very good at finding holes in zone coverage.
