The Buffalo Bills’ previous preseason game against the Cleveland Browns may have been the highest-rated local TV event of the summer Authentic Matt Milano Jersey , but Sunday’s matchup against the Cincinnati Bengals topped it, and then some. Rookie quarterback Josh Allen’s first start was the highest-rated television program of the summer as well as the second-highest rated preseason game since 2000, according to Alan Pergament of The Buffalo News. The Bills-Bengals tilt had a preliminary rating of 25.7. Pergament notes that the 2014 preseason Hall of Fame game, featuring the debut of rookie receiver Sammy Watkins, continues to be the highest rated preseason matchup with an average rating of 26.4.Surprisingly, the highest ratings were achieved after backup quarterback Nathan Peterman took to the field. The ratings hit a high of 27.9 from 6:15 p.m. through 6:30 p.m., which is about when Peterman was driving down the field for his first score.We don’t expect similar ratings for Thursday night.Matt Milano Named AFC Defensive Player of the Week Buffalo Bills starting weakside linebacker Matt Milano was all over the field during Sunday’s shocking 27-6 upset win over the Minnesota Vikings Micah Hyde Jersey , and his stellar play netted Milano AFC Defensive Player of the Week honors for Week 3. Milano enjoyed perhaps the finest game of his young career, finishing with a sack, a fumble recovery, and an interception. Milano’s strong outing, which included eight tackles and one pass break-up, helped Buffalo (1-2) knock off the reigning NFC North champion Vikings (1-1-1). He became the first member of the Bills to accomplish that feat since Troy Vincent in 2004, and the first Bill to earn AFC Defensive Player of the Week honors since cornerback Nickell Robey-Coleman in Week 5 of the 2016 season. Thanks to an inspired effort from Milano and the rest of the defense Bills Rafael Bush Jersey , Buffalo limited Minnesota to only 46 first-half yards, the fewest a Bills’ defense had allowed in the first half since the Cleveland Browns managed two first-half yards in 2004.While Milano (71 percent of the snaps) and Ramon Humber (29 percent of snaps) split time at weakside linebacker vs. the Vikings, if the second-year pro out of Boston College keeps producing like he did Sunday, the playing time should continue to tilt significantly in Milano’s favor. Through three games (all starts), Milano has amassed 21 tackles (three for a loss) with one interception, two fumble recoveries, one sack Bills Star Lotulelei Jersey , and two pass break-ups. In his rookie season, Milano compiled 44 tackles with one sack, one interception, and a 40-yard fumble recovery for a touchdown in Buffalo’s 34-14 win over the Oakland Raiders.
