AFC Notes: Bills, Dolphins, Patriots

Bills

Bills OC Ken Dorsey said that they will keep a similar gameplan as last week’s game for  Week 16 in order to plan for the snow. 

“It’ll be kind of similar to this week. We’ll do the same thing just so we’re not putting ourselves in tough situations,” Dorsey said, via Alec White of the team’s official site. “We always try and make sure we’ve got those contingency plans.”

Dorsey said that Josh Allen allows them to keep a balanced offense despite weather conditions. 

“Whether it’s windy, rainy snow, whatever it might be. I think that’s a big advantage for us to be able to do those different things that keep us balanced instead of forcing us into a one-dimensional game,” Dorsey said.

As for the Bills’ Week 16 game against the Bears, DC Leslie Frazier had high praise of QB Justin Fields

“He’s extremely dangerous,” Frazier said. “And he’s got a good arm as well… He’s not just a one-dimensional quarterback.”

Patriots
