Orchard Park, N.Y. (WGR 550) - The Buffalo Bills secured another much-needed victory on Sunday with a 31-10 blowout win over the Dallas Cowboys at Highmark Stadium in Orchard Park.
A second win in-a-row for the Bills puts them at 8-6 in the AFC standings with only three games remaining in the regular season. It also keeps Buffalo well in the playoff race, as they sit in a tie for the last two Wild Card spots in the conference.
Bills head coach Sean McDermott praised his team's performance on Sunday, and expressed his gratitude for everyone who made the victory possible. He believes that even though the odds were stacked against them, they were able to still push through.
"Some guys got banged up. Some guys were able to play through some things. I'm just extremely grateful to lead these guys. Just what a good group of men and women on our staff, as well," said McDermott during his postgame press conference with the media.

The Bills were able to gain over 351 yards of total offense on Sunday, with 221 of those yards belonging to running back James Cook alone.
In the first three quarters, the Bills ran the ball 69% of the time. Despite the lack of throwing plays, McDermott was quick to praise his wide receivers, and believes they carried their own weight whenever the ball came their way.
"It takes an unselfish approach, especially for a wide receiver to not get as many balls in a game like this," McDermott said. "When the ball does come your way [and] the opportunities you get, you've got to make the most of them. I thought they did that."
