What a season it’s turning out to be for Sean McDermott’s Buffalo Bills. The Bills made their way to a first AFC East title since 1996. They won the race against the Miami Dolphins to secure a spot in the playoffs. They built on that success with an impressive display against divisional rivals New England Patriots in Week 16.
Josh Allen was impressive once again but it was experienced wide receiver Stefon Diggs who grabbed headlines with a standout performance on Monday night. On 9 receptions last night, Diggs registered 145 receiving yards with 3 receiving touchdowns to his name.
The Bills have been on the receiving end of some criticism in 2020, but there’s one certain analyst to reckons that McDermott’s boys are actually the ‘real deal’.

On the latest segment of ESPN’s Get Up, former Indianapolis Colts and Green Bay Packers star Jeff Saturday gave his two cents on the emergence of the Buffalo Bills in 2020.
He said, “I think this team is scary. I mean, you looked at Josh Allen last night, and I say the way that they beat the Patriots was probably the most impressive, you know, you think about Belichick and what he wants to do, he wants to take away your number one option, which is Stefon Diggs. Well, they couldn’t do that.”

“So when you talk about beating a Bill Belichick team, throwing it away the way that they did, it was a very impressive victory. Again, I think, you know, Patriots were inept on an offensive note, no real challenge to win. But ultimately, the way the Bills beat them was very impressive in my opinion,” Saturday said on the show.
