Bills vs. Bears Recap
I’ve never heard a player come out and say, “We’re not game-planning for these games,” but it makes sense. I view preseason games as a way to identify players' performance more than the teams’ performance.
AFC East Preview
Will the Bills repeat in 2024 and prove the doubters wrong? Did Miami do enough this offseason to get over the hump? Are Aaron Rodgers and the Jets for real? What will New England look like now that Bill Belichick is gone? All that and more in my final division preview, the AFC East.
AFC West Preview
The AFC West, home of the back-to-back Super Bowl Champion Kansas City Chiefs, and the most confident division prediction I will make. Surprise, the Chiefs will repeat as AFC West Champions for a ninth straight year in 2024. The real question will be how the other 3 teams fare with two new head coaches and potentially two new starting quarterbacks in the division.
AFC South Preview
Can Houston build on its surprising 2023 campaign? Is Anthony Richardson healthy and ready to be an NFL-caliber starting quarterback? Was 2023 just an off-year for the now highly-paid Trevor Lawrence? Can Will Levis and the Titans turn the page on a new era in Nashville? A surprise team will finish the season at the top of the AFC South.
BB5: Training Camp Battles
As I mentioned in the Minicamp Wrap Up, more than a few position battles remain undecided. It will be interesting to see how they unfold as the pads come on and training camp rolls into the first preseason game versus Chicago on August 10th.
AFC North Preview
This division will be the most challenging division to win in the AFC due to the grueling division matchups. It doesn't get easier outside the division, as Baltimore, Cleveland, and Pittsburgh have 3 of the 4 most difficult schedules heading into 2024 based on the opponent's 2023 records.
BB5: Same Face, New Place
In this edition of BB5, I will delve into the profiles of five new players in the division, each poised to challenge the Bills' quest for a fifth straight division crown.

Minicamp Wrap Up
No drama. Seeing full participation (Benford excused) was great after all the controversy surrounding Diggs/McDermott during last year's mandatory camp.

Draft Grades Over The Years
The rule of thumb I’ve read is that you can't truly grade a draft class until they've completed their 3rd season.

There are 3 players that I would be interested in seeing brought in to training camp
Report Cards Are In: NFL Analysts Grade the Bills Draft
A real draft grade probably can't be handed out until 3, or 4 years after the original draft year. I am more worried about the development and coaching all of the players will receive now that they are Buffalo Bills.
