On this episode of Talking Buffalo, Patrick Moran is going over his biggest Buffalo Bills takeaways after watching back the film from their 44-32 victory over Tampa on Sunday, including why the Bills would be best served to leave Keon Coleman on the inactive list beyond just this game.
Coleman was a healthy scratch for the Bills following him reportedly being late to a team meeting on Friday, the third publicly known instance that's led to discipline from Sean McDermott. From what Patrick and surely most of you saw from the receivers and offense in general on Sunday, they may legitimately be better off without him. Snap counts where shared nearly equally by five different receivers and all had a hand in Buffalo's offensive explosion. Patrick explains why Josh Palmer, Khalil Shakir and Tyrell Shavers should be the first three three receivers going forward, with Gabe Davis back in the No. 4 role he had early in his career and Curtis Samuel as the inside/outside No. 5 with versatility. Hell, Keon shouldn't even be the next guy up at this point, a distinction Patrick thinks should fall on Elijah Moore.
Patrick also goes over some of the reasons he felt this was a Joe Brady redemption game and why he's not dwelling on any Josh Allen mistakes when he puts up the kind of numbers he did on Sunday.
It was a mixed bag on defense and Patrick goes over a lot of it, from the good (Terrel Bernard, Christian Benford, Cole Bishop, Jordan Poyer) to the bad (Joey Bosa, Greg Rousseau, Matt Milano) and if some changes could be on the way for the defense. That plus special teams deserves some love, a quick turnaround in getting ready for Houston and much more.

On this episode of Talking Buffalo, Patrick Moran is joined by Joe From Queens for a ton of live reaction not long after the Buffalo Bills earned a badly needed victory over the Tampa Bay Bucs, 44-32 in one of the wilder games of the season.
If superb offense, borderline pathetic defense and 10 lead changes are your thing, you're in luck with this one. The guys talk about the good, bad and ugly of everything from Buffalo's perspective in this one.
Offensively it was a bit of a head scratcher for the Bills. Josh Allen threw two interceptions and a handful of other mistakes that definitely left points on the board. Yet it didn't matter as he accounted for more than 350 total yards and six touchdowns. "Everybody Eats" was back too as several guys enjoyed meals in the Buffalo passing game, including a big day from Tyrell Shavers and over 120 receiving yards from the Bills running backs.
Defensively was kind of disastrous and the guys discuss how this unit is little more than a reputation defense at this point---a dog that's far more bark than bite.
They also discuss of the biggest plays and players that shaped this game, where they think Buffalo is headed following this, the controversial Keon Coleman benching and tons more.

On this episode of Talking Buffalo, Patrick Moran provides a Buffalo Bills vs Tampa Bay Bucs preview, including keys to a Buffalo victory, five bold predictions for this game and why this is must-win for the Bills in some ways.
The Bills are 6-3 and sitting in very decent shape, record-wise. However, if they want to realistically have a shot at the No. 1 seed in the AFC or even more importantly, stay right in the race for a sixth straight divisional title, they absolutely can't afford to drop this game to the Bucs or any home game remaining for that matter. Patrick highlights four players where the pressure to win this game and start playing better is turned up the most.
He also takes a look at a very talented and battle tested Tampa team that comes to Highmark Stadium with a lot of confidence, fueled by quarterback Baker Mayfield, who right now is very much in the mix for 2025 NFL MVP.
From there Patrick lays out three keys to a Buffalo win on Sunday, including pressuring Baker Mayfield, finding a way to stop the deep ball he loves throwing and making the Buffalo offense more of a threat in the passing game themselves. That plus five bold predictions for the game, will Patrick actually pick against the Bills and much more.

On today's Talking Buffalo, Patrick Moran is joined by both Matthew Fairburn of The Athletic and Kris Baker of Sabres Prospects to discuss how the Buffalo Sabres can weather the storm of injuries and illnesses that are already threatening their season as well as their popular hockey show and other topics.
The Sabres have been competitive so far this season but both on ice injuries and significant illnesses off it already have the season in peril. From injuries on face offs, face laceration infections, blood clots and life threating health scares to significant others, Buffalo has been anything but healthy. It's a big reason why they're currently sitting at the bottom of the Eastern Conference. The guys go over everything beyond their control what's went wrong and if this team is incapable of not falling off to a point contending for the playoffs later in the season becomes insurmountable.
Patrick also asks them about Alex Tuch and if the guys think it's only going to get harder to see sign him to an extension as the season goes on. If they can't, what can they get for him in a trade and how demoralizing would being unable to lock him up be to the organization?
They also spend a little time talking a few other topics, including the Buffalo Bills, a team both guys obviously follow pretty closely as well. That plus how's life with the Baker Fairburn Hockey Show and much more.
You can follow Matt on Twitter at @MatthewFairburnand of course check out his coverage of the Sabres at The Athletic,Follow Kris Baker @SabresProspects and be sure to check out the Baker Fairburn Hockey Show wherever you get your podcasts.

On this episode of Talking Buffalo, Patrick Moran is joined by SB Nation's Matt Warren for some Buffalo Bills positional analysis, including a discussion on a few positions that could potentially see changes going forward as early as this coming week.
As they've done every week throughout the season, Patrick and Matt get together mid-week to go over the Bills most recent performance position-by-position to discuss the good and bad before Matt ultimately hands out a grade for each. Unfortunately for Bills Mafia this past week was a failing one as the Bills absolutely stunk up Hard Rock Stadium in their three score loss to the lowly 2-7 Dolphins.
Could this lead to some changes internally? The guys discuss is Gabe Davis could be just about ready to join the active roster and if so, does that come at the expense of an underwhelming Keon Coleman? Also should Shaq Thompson start at linebacker if his calf if good to go this week over either Matt Milano or Terrell Bernard and also should Max Hairston go back to a platoon with Tre White if Christian Benford's back on Sunday or has Hairston done enough the wrestle the job away.
That plus a discussion about an interesting new book, frustration towards Brandon Beane if a NFL Network report is accurate and much more.

On this episode of Talking Buffalo, Patrick Moran offers his biggest takeaways from the Buffalo Bills colossal disaster loss in Miami on Sunday after spending time going over all of the statistics as well as watching back the game take, including a plea for the reigning MVP quarterback to stop taking all the bullets at the podium after these type of losses.
Josh Allen did not play well enough to give Buffalo their best chance to win on Sunday, let's be very clear about that. He had two turnovers in this game in the second half, both in Miami territory that were on no one but himself. Essentially that took Buffalo out of the running to come back late. That said, Allen stood at the podium yet again and burdened all the accountability to what was an ugly loss to a team that's been very bad all season. While it's been admirable and unselfish for the Bills leader to be the most accountable player on the team, Patrick would like to see, to use a wrestling term, a bit of a "heel turn" from Allen and start calling out some of his teammates, his coaching, the game plan and specific play calls. Guys like Tom Brady and Aaron Rodgers may be considered jerks in a lot of ways but they were never afraid to point the fingers at others and it often helped spark their team.
Of course, the passing game often looked in shambles despite Allen going over 100 yards and at the root of it is once again Keon Coleman. He had a 35 yard touchdown against a third string cornerback but some of the routes he ran on film look less than 100%. Is there true discourse between quarterback and receiver? Sure seems like it at this point, how long does Buffalo continue to try and force Keon to be a big part of the offense because where he was drafted?
The defense had its struggles too and the linebackers were often a big part of it. What in the world has happened to Terrel Bernard and Matt Milano? It's ugly out there for them. That plus why ego could be keeping the Bills back from unlocking their best potential and much more.

On this episode of Talking Buffalo, Patrick Moran is joined by Joe From Queens for a ton of heated live reaction on the Buffalo Bills going down to Miami and and putting forth an absolutely disgraceful performance against the Dolphins, losing 30-13 to put their AFC east division title hopes in extreme jeopardy.
There's a myriad of factors that contributed to the Bills stunning loss at Hard Rock Stadium and despite doing a lot of good things and trying to carry the offense on his back by himself, Josh Allen was guilty of two horrific turnovers in the second half that were on no one but himself, both in Miami territory too.
The fault hardly ends there and the guys have a ton to say about it. From a defense that's actually reliant on guys like Jordan Phillips and Jordan Poyer to be meaningful contributors to an offense featuring receivers that flat out can't get open, to an offensive coordinator calling passing plays on fourth and a yard and a team that didn't look ready to overcome any adversity at all, it was just ugly and perhaps humbling.
They also talk about what to expect going forward, including Dalton Kincaid having a hamstring injury that makes this roster even thinner, Joe's Mt. Flushmore and plenty of fire for Brandon Beane. That plus did this kill any Super Bowl vibes and much more.

On this episode of Talking Buffalo, Patrick Moran has a full preview of the Buffalo Bills traveling to Miami to face the Dolphins, including the lowdown on both teams, three keys to a Bills victory, five bold predictions and a final score pick with explanation.
The Bills are back on track after a road win at Carolina and beating the three-time defending AFC champion Kansas City Chiefs in Orchard Park this past Sunday. Meanwhile Miami is 2-7 and just fired their general manager over the past week. It's a mismatch on paper and Patrick explains why there's good reason for that. For a lack of a better wording, the Dolphins stink---on both sides of the ball.
That said, this is the NFL and we just watched Carolina go on the road and knock off the Green Bay Packers last Sunday. Patrick goes over three keys for the Bills that will guard against them being upset at Hard Rock Stadium. From there it's five bold predictions----is Keon Coleman finally going to put together a big game? Patrick seems to think so. That plus a final score guess, will the Bills cover the 9.5 spread? That and much more

On this episode of Talking Buffalo, Patrick Moran is joined by broadcaster and recurring guest Steve Bermel to talk Buffalo Bills, when/if the Bills will admit to having a Keon Coleman problem and discuss if Brandon Beane could at least be flirting with approaching hot seat territory.
Quite frankly it feels unnecessary negative to discuss anything with the Bills in anything but a positive light since they came back from their bye to smack Carolina on the road and then handle the three-time defending AFC champion Kansas City Chiefs this past Sunday as home underdogs. The Bills are back to sitting pretty at 6-2 and very much alive in the race for the best record in the AFC.
Only it doesn't quite feel so great about this team because of the injuries, because there's a few players that just can't get it going and mostly because the trade deadline just came and went without the Bills making a move. The guys discuss Buffalo not making a trade and Patrick doesn't really buy Beane's comments to the media on Wednesday. While both guys acknowledge there's almost no change Beane's getting fired anytime soon regardless of how this plays out, Patrick thinks it's fair to ask if Beane at least deserves to have the heat cranked up on him should this roster fall short yet again in January in its goal to reach the Super Bowl.
They also talk about Keon Coleman and his role with this team. How much you should expect from Keon is up for debate but one thing's for sure---the stats are ugly and if you're expecting anything more besides a willing blocker who catches a few passes per game for a few dozen yards, you're likely disappointed.
They also talk about the latest injuries the team is dealing with heading to Miami. That plus the Sabres have become OT merchants and much more. Follow Steve on Twitter @SteveBurmel.

On this episode of Talking Buffalo, Patrick Moran is joined by Matt Warren of SB Nation to go over the Buffalo Bills positionally with analysis and grades stemming from their win last weekend against Kansas City in addition to a NFL trade deadline that featured some final day fireworks but no trades by Brandon Beane.
There were a few whopper blockbuster trades on deadline day, including the Jets sending Sauce Gardner to the Colts for two firsts plus AD Mitchell and then Quinen Williams to Dallas for a first, second and Mazi Smith. A handful of other deals were done but none by Buffalo. The guys have plenty of takes on Beane standing pat and a riveting rumor that broke over the final hours that Buffalo may be in on a Von Miller return and/or Deebo Samuel.
Then it's back to their weekly feature where the guys go over the last game from a positional standpoint and talk about what went right and wrong for each with ultimately an assigned grade. Could the tight end room receive a rare A-plus from Matt, who gave out two of them the week prior from the Carolina game. Which positional group graded out the lowest? Who were a few under the radar studs and duds from the Chiefs game? That plus a look at Sunday's matchup in Miami and much more.

On this episode of Talking Buffalo, Patrick Moran is joined by WUFO sports director and Buffalo Bills reporter Muki Hawkins for a conversation focused around the Bills recorded live from Imperial Pizza in South Buffalo.
Muki joins the show for the first time to go over some of their biggest takeaways from the Bills huge 28-21 win over the Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday at Highmark Stadium. Muki was in the press box and locker room to cover the game and shares what the vibes were like Sunday night both in the crowd and among the players and team personnel afterward.
They discuss a defense that played perhaps it's most complete game of the season, spearheaded by a pair of youngsters in Max Hairston and Cole Bishop. On the offensive side of the ball the unit had success cause their stars played like stars---guys like Josh Allen, James Cook, Dalton Kincaid and Khalil Shakir.
They also talk about the horrible injury to Michael Hoecht, who was making a huge impact in his two games with the Bills. That plus how they think the team will look forward, potential additions before the Tuesday 4pm trade deadline and much more.

On this episode of Talking Buffalo, Patrick Moran is joined by Joe From Queens for plenty of live reaction just moments after the conclusion of the Buffalo Bills holding off the Kansas City Chiefs in another regular season thriller at Highmark Stadium, 28.21.
With the NFL trade deadline less than 48 hours away at kickoff, the Bills with a couple of significant injuries and being a rare home underdog, were the Bills able to knock off the Chiefs in the regular season for a fifth consecutive time? The answer was---yes. Buffalo's defensive effort was superb against a Kansas City offense that came into the game red hot, especially considering the injuries Buffalo's defense racked up, including another devastating one to Michael Hoecht. Offensively there was balance as Josh Allen threw well, Dalton Kincaid went over 100 yards receiving and James Cook once again topped 100 yards rushing
The guys discuss the good, bad and ugly of it all and don't hold anything back, as usual with this show.
Joe also has his weekly Mt. Flushmore, this week consisting of the worst Chiefs related moments at Highmark Stadium history. That and plenty more.

On this episode of Talking Buffalo, Patrick Moran previews the Buffalo Bills huge matchup against the Kansas City Chiefs in Orchard Park this Sunday as well as offering three keys to a Bills victory, five bold predictions and a final score guess for the clash.
In what's become an annual regular season tradition, all eyes around the NFL will be focused on the Bills versus Chiefs and Patrick talks about how there's plenty of stake for both teams, as the loser will have a far bigger uphill battle winning this own division let alone getting the top seed in the conference. While Buffalo's actually had Kansas City's number in the regular season over the past four years, Patrick admits that he thinks this year the Chiefs currently have the better roster as things stand and explains why.
After going over both teams and things to look for, Patrick provides three keys to a Buffalo victory, including a passing game that must be up to task as it's certain KC will try to limit Buffalo's rushing attack. From there it's five bold predictions for the game including Bills fans seeing Max Hairston and not Tre White in the secondary late when the game could be hanging in the balance. Lastly, it's final score prediction time and does Patrick think the better team on paper wins or the team that always seems to play their best when regarded as the underdog? That and plenty more.

On this episode of Talking Buffalo, Patrick Moran is joined by Spectrum News sports anchor Andy Young for a Buffalo Bills vs Kansas City Chiefs primer in advance of their huge matchup this weekend over a conversation recorded live from Imperial Pizza in South Buffalo.
It's always a big game atmosphere when the Bills and Chiefs play and their meeting in the regular season for a fifth consecutive season. The guys cover the game and discuss both teams from every angle possible, including why it feels there's at least a little more at stake for both teams in this matchup than their normal regular season matchup, as the loser could find it very (very) difficult to win their division title let alone knock down a number one seed in the conference.
They discuss some of the things going on with the Bills, including how they hope to replace Ed Oliver, Gabe Davis being moved from IR to the practice squad and what could happen at linebacker at Sunday if all the Buffalo linebackers are good to go--spoiler alert---it may not be what you think.
Patrick and Andy also talk about a few reasons Bills fans should feel really good about this game despite Kansas City being favored. They also talk about why beating Kansas City will be as difficult as ever and much more.
Big shout-out and thank you once again to Imperial Pizzafor being a gracious host and for their excellent wings. They now have two locations, 1035 Abbott Road and also 1665 Main Street.

On this episode of Talking Buffalo, Patrick Moran is joined by Matt Warren of SB Nation for his weekly appearance to discuss the Buffalo Bills positionally and evaluate them with grades based on their dominating performance in their Week seven blowout win over Carolina in addition to taking a look at Buffalo's next opponent, Kansas City.
The Bills for the most part looked good. How good exactly? We go over everything positionally and Matt assigns a grade. We also spend a good amount of time getting ready for the crucial game against Kansas City and explain why it means a little more to both teams this year than the past few regular season matchups. That plus what the Bills may do before the trade deadline and much more.

On this episode of Talking Buffalo, Patrick Moran is joined by popular football analyst Chris Trapasso to discuss several of their biggest takeaways from the Buffalo Bills after their Week eight shellacking of the Carolina Panthers, 40-9 to win their fifth game in seven tries and put an end to their two-game losing streak.
The Bills offense was spectacular in Carolina, just not in the way most expected. The Panthers entered being pretty stingy against the run but Buffalo running back James Cook literally had a historic day rushing for the Bills, going for 216 yards in just three quarters of work--the most rushing yards by a Bill in nearly 50 years and the first time one has went over 200 yards since Fred Jackson in 2009. Chris discusses the evolution of Cook as a complete running back and the league and becoming a legitimate star.
Meanwhile the Bills passing offense was pretty lousy, particularly in the first half and Chris has thoughts on what's going on with the lack of effectiveness in that area and why Josh Allen seems to be struggling. What's the biggest components?
On the other side of the ball it was a nice influx of new blood that helped spark the defense to a successful day. Chris talks about Max Hairston and Jordan Hancock bringing speed and juice to the secondary while Michael Hoecht made a huge impact in his Bills debut following his six game suspension.
Unfortunately this win came with a big price as star Ed Oliver tore his bicep and could potentially be done for the season. What do the Bills do to try and at least somewhat replace his production? That plus if the Bills have a linebacker controversy brewing, does Chris think Brandon Beane will make a trade(s) before the deadline next Tuesday and plenty more.
Make sure to follow Chris on Twitter @ChrisTrapasso.

On this episode of Talking Buffalo, Patrick Moran is joined by Joe From Queens for tons of live reaction not long after the Buffalo Bills went to Carolina and absolutely dismantled the Panthers, 40-9 though the win may have come at a heavy price.
James Cook ran for over 200 yards and two touchdowns to pace the offense while the defensive line had an excellent afternoon to lead the defense as this game was never in doubt. The guys discuss the good, bad and ugly from it all.
Beyond the game the Bills suffered a potential huge (huge, huge) blow with an Ed Oliver bicep injury that had him ruled out for the rest of the game almost immediately and the obvious fear is that it's torn. The guys have thoughts on what that means for the current roster and if it suddenly makes finding a defensive tackle in the trade market the biggest priority over wide receiver or safety.
They also have a Josh Allen conversation, who had another roller coaster type game? Are they worried about him going forward or he simply in a little bit of a prolonged slump? That plus thoughts on lots of other things, comments from fans in the live chat and much more.

On this episode of Talking Buffalo, Patrick Moran has a full preview of the Buffalo Bills hitting the road Sunday to take on the Carolina Panthers including three keys to a Bills victory, five bold predictions for the game and a final score prediction..
The Bills return from their bye week losers of two consecutive games and try to right the ship against a pesky Carolina team that's won three in a row. Patrick gets into some of the things that have made the Panthers much improved from recent years, including a (very) strong running game spearheaded by Rico Dowdle and Chuba Hubbard and one of the best young corners in the game on defense in Jaycee Horn. As for Buffalo, Jordan Poyer could be making his first start this season at safety and Patrick examines if the offense will start using the running backs more in the passing game.
From there's three keys to a Bills victory, which includes Buffalo selling out to the run and making Andy Dalton (or Bryce Young) beat them in the passing game. As always there's five bold predictions for the game and Patrick has a few good ones, including the Bills getting their first interception of the season by a cornerback and a far more disciplined team outing. That plus will the Bills cover the (7.5) spread, the Sabres are looking good and much more.

On this episode of Talking Buffalo, Patrick Moran flips what was originally going to be a Podbag episode and turns into three primarily talking points on things that could help a Buffalo Bills team that has undoubtedly been reeling the past few weeks.
The Bills won the first four games this season even though most of it wasn't pretty. Their caliber play then caught up to them in losing back to back games heading into their bye week against New England and Atlanta that has them second place in the division for the first time in what feels forever. During their slump, at least a slump by their standards several things have gone wrong. Patrick takes a few submissions submitted by listeners and turns them into equal parts talking points that can help turn around some of their biggest problems.
It's been pretty obvious the Bills haven't used their running backs enough in the passing game. After doing some research Patrick's actually blown away by how underutilized it's been. He goes over a bunch of numbers from last year and compares it to this season's pace to conclude this offense would probably get a nice boost from having James Cook, Ty Johnson and Ray Davis more involved in the air game.
Also, there's been a ton of Keon Coleman discourse over the past few weeks. Patrick dives into that as well and concludes that what's best for the Buffalo offense may not be best for Keon personally. That plus what's the most simple and achievable way for the defense to start playing much better as they come back from their bye and much more.

On this episode of Talking Buffalo, Patrick Moran is joined by the Matt Warren (SB Nation) to go through the Buffalo Bills positionally with analysis and grades through their bye week that has them returning to face Carolina this weekend at 4-2.
Things have really shifted recently following the Bills consecutive losses to New England and Atlanta. How much of it is overreaction? How much is the typical peaks and valleys of a NFL season? How much is legitimate cause for worry? The guys discuss all that and agree on one thing---this bye week came at the perfect time. It's an opportunity for the team to reset not just physically but also mentally and perhaps even emotionally, though both guys suggest the panic level is far greater among fans than the team itself.
From there, as they do every week following the guys go through the team position by position and discuss what's worked and hasn't before Matt ultimately assigns a grade for each position. One thing that becomes obvious through the process is too many talented and well paid defenders are not playing nearly to their standard and it's hurting the team.
They also spend some time discussing the rest of the season, setting up this Sunday's game against a pesky Carolina team and much more.
