Herm’s terms

On the Buffalo Bills: &ldquo;Young team, fairly young team with, really, a quarterback that&rsquo;s only started 18 games. They&rsquo;re living through his progress of trying to play quarterback in this league. The thing that&rsquo;s really scary is their special teams. They&rsquo;re really good on special teams, their return game. They&rsquo;re really, really good. Their punter and kicker are very good. Their special teams are really what sets them apart from other teams…
