Week 17: Bills vs Jets Preview
The 12-3 Buffalo Bills welcome the 4-11 Jets to New York for their second matchup of the season. Both teams have gone down different paths since their week six meeting, with the Bills going 8-1 since then and the Jets going 2-7. A victory on Sunday would secure the two seed and cap off Buffalo’s first undefeated record at home since the 1990 season.
Bills vs Patriots Recap
The Buffalo Bills survived a slow start against a resilient New England Patriots team to win 24-21 and move to 12-3 on the year. Drake Maye led the Patriots on back-to-back scoring drives to start the game and build a 14-0 lead. Buffalo fought back with 24 unanswered points, assisted by an improved second-half defensive effort that forced three turnovers.
Week 16: Bills vs Patriots Preview
The Buffalo Bills return home after their victory over the Detroit Lions to face the 3-11 New England Patriots. This is the first of two matchups over the final three weeks of the season for the AFC East rivals. With the two teams heading in different directions, Buffalo needs to keep its focus and continue its solid play for the remainder of the season. New England wants something positive to end a disappointing season under first-year head coach Jerod Mayo.
Bills at Lions Recap
The Buffalo Bills knocked off the Detroit Lions 48-42, ending their 11-game winning streak. Buffalo never trailed in the game, with scores on their first three drives before heading into halftime up 21-14. The second half saw two punts and 55 combined points scored. The Bills capitalized on a fumble that allowed them to stretch their lead to 35-14 and a little breathing room. Jared Goff did his best to bring the Lions back to within a score, but Detroit could not capitalize on two onside kick attempts in the fourth quarter.
Week 15: Bills at Lions Preview
The Bills head to Detroit for a highly anticipated matchup between two of the best teams in the NFL. Buffalo is looking to rebound from their worst defensive performance since the 2021 season after their 44-42 loss to the Rams in Week 14. The Lions are on an 11-game winning streak and have overcome a rash of injuries while maintaining a one-game lead in the competitive NFC North.
Bills vs Chiefs Recap
The Bills handed the Kansas City Chiefs their first loss of the season to move to 9-2 and close the gap in the race for the AFC’s number-one seed. The Bills finished the game with back-to-back 10+ play-scoring drives, chewing up almost twelve minutes of the game clock for a final score of 30-21. The Bills ended the game instead of giving Mahomes an opportunity to lead a game-winning drive. This was the fifth straight game in which the Bills scored 30+ points.
Week 11: Bills vs Chiefs Preview
Bills vs. Chiefs week is here. Like many others, I have had this game circled since the schedule was released earlier this year. Josh Allen and Patrick Mahomes are the two best quarterbacks in the NFL, and their matchups have proven to be must-see TV. If the Bills have any hope of obtaining the number one seed in the AFC come playoff time, this is a game they need to win.
Bills at Colts Recap
The 8-2 Bills won a turnover-filled affair in Indianapolis for their fifth straight victory and their best start to a season since 1993. Buffalo jumped out to a 10-0 lead fueled by turnovers but quickly saw themselves down 13-10 after a turnover on downs and an interception. They scored 10 points in the final three minutes to take the lead and go into half at 20-13. They wouldn’t look back, stretching the lead to 30-13 before a late touchdown by the Colts to make it 30-20 and hit the over for the gamblers out there.
Week 10: Bills at Colts Preview
The 7-2 Bills travel west to Indianapolis to face the 4-5 Colts. Buffalo will be looking to extend its winning streak to five as Joe Flacco will try to end Indy’s losing streak and close the gap between them and the Houston Texans in the AFC South. The Bills are off to their best start to a season since 2020 and a chance to go 8-2 for the first time since 1993.
Bills vs Dolphins Recap
The Bills escaped a nearly perfect game by Tua Tagovailoa and the Miami Dolphins with a 30-27 victory. The Bills started slow and found themselves down 10-6 at halftime after a Jalen Ramsey interception on a bobbled pass by Keon Coleman ended a promising Bills drive that led to a 14-point swing. The Bills scored points on all four drives of the second half, where we saw five lead changes before Tyler Bass broke a 27-27 tie with a career-long 61-yard field goal with five seconds remaining.
Week 9: Bills vs Dolphins Preview
The 6-2 Bills welcome their division rival, the 2-5 Miami Dolphins, to Buffalo for their second season meeting on Sunday. The Bills were victorious in their first meeting, the week 2 Thursday Night game in Miami, 31-10. Both teams have had different paths to this matchup, with the Bills coming in on a three-game winning streak after the 31-10 victory in Seattle. Miami has lost four of their five games since the Bills loss.
NFL Trade Deadline: Do the Bills Need to Make Another Move?
The Bills traded for Amari Cooper on October 15th in a necessary move for the offense. We have already seen the benefits of this move, even if they haven’t been reflected in the box score. His addition has balanced out the receiver room and allowed the receivers on the roster to slot into the roles they should have been in all season. I don’t know if Brandon Beane needs to make another move, but if he is going to, here are some names that should interest Bills fans.
Bills at Seahawks Recap
The Bills handled their business in Seattle and are returning to Buffalo with a 3.5-game lead in the AFC East after their 31-10 victory. I expected a shootout in this game, but only one team got the memo. The Bills started the scoring early, and the defense never let the Seahawks join in and were benefactors of some timely miscues.
The Bills Trade for Amari Cooper
All of the attention was on Davante Adams and the Bills “monitoring” the situation over the last week before seeing the Jets finalize a deal with the Las Vegas Raiders this morning. At some point in the last 24 hours, the Bills changed course, or quite possibly went in the direction they had been going all along, and made a deal with the Cleveland Browns today for wide receiver Amari Cooper.
Week 6: Bills at Jets Preview
Week six is upon us, with the Bills traveling to New Jersey to face the Jets on Monday Night football. Both teams will be looking to avoid a third straight loss, with the winner taking over first place in the AFC East. The Jets made headlines on Tuesday by firing head coach Robert Saleh and replacing him with defensive coordinator Jeff Ulbrich. Both teams continue to be linked to disgruntled Raiders receiver Davante Adams. The Bills have been dealing with questions surrounding their offense and the quality of their receiver group for most of the week after another disappointing effort in their 23-20 loss to the Texans. No moves were made this week, but one has to think that another offensive dud will change the course of action on Tuesday morning.
Bills at Texans Recap
The Bills continued their trio of away games with another slow start on offense and another loss. Sunday afternoon's 23-20 defeat by the Texans has left fans with more questions about coaching decisions, wondering what happened to the high-flying offense we saw the first three weeks of the season and whether Brandon Beane needs to make a deal.
Week 5: Bills at Texans Preview
The Bills are looking to get back on track after suffering their first defeat of the season as they head to Houston for the much-anticipated matchup against the 3-1 Texans. All eyes will be on former Bills receiver Stefon Diggs after his trade this spring and pointed comments about his role with the team during the second half of last season.
Bills at Ravens Recap
The Bills started their three-game road trip with a night to forget in Baltimore Sunday night. There aren’t many positive things to take away from their 35-10 loss to the Ravens. The 25-point defeat is the worst regular season loss since their 41-15 defeat to the Indianapolis Colts in 2021. For the first time this season, the Bills were punched in the mouth and unable to respond while being outcoached and outperformed in all facets of the game.
Week 4: Bills at Ravens Preview
The Bills are coming off their most impressive win of the season Monday night and will head to Baltimore for a Sunday Night Football matchup against the 1-2 Ravens. This is the start of a three-game road trip for the Bills and will be a good test on both sides of the ball.
Bills vs Jaguars Recap
The Buffalo Bills showed up Monday night looking like a team prepared to send a message to the rest of the NFL in their 47-10 route of the reeling Jacksonville Jaguars. Josh Allen and the offense scored a touchdown on all five of their first-half possessions to take a 34-3 lead into halftime.
