Do long trips spell trouble for Buffalo Bills?

There’s been some hubbub about the total travel distance the Buffalo Bills will rack up this season to get to games outside Orchard Park (notice I didn’t say “away” games, that’s what we call “a hint”). Now most of the articles about Buffalo traveling close to 20,000 miles this season are comparing it to other […]

Bills news: Buffalo’s schedule will be released tonight

As the NFL’s offseason continues, the date when the schedules for all 32 teams are released has become a popular offseason highlight as fans mark their calendars for which home games they’ll attend and plan for the road trips they want to make for the coming season. We already know the Buffalo Bills will make […]

Buffalo Bills to play Chiefs on Thanksgiving, Broncos on Christmas

The Buffalo Bills will distinctly be part of your Thanksgiving and Christmas holidays this year — for those who celebrate — as the NFL has placed Josh Allen and Co. in each of marquee spotlight during the 2026 season.

Are the Buffalo Bills still one of the NFL’s favorite primetime shows?

The Buffalo Bills used to live in the NFL’s Sunday afternoon shadows. Since 2020, Buffalo has transformed into one of the league’s most watched teams on a national scale. As Josh Allen’s rise turned the Bills into a contender, the television exposure followed right behind it. From Sunday Night Football spotlights to Thursday night dominance, […]

Regular stats don’t quite capture how bad Buffalo Bills run defense was

Under Sean McDermott, the run defense was always a distant second priority to the pass defense. While I do vehemently defend the notion that pass defense is more important, things can get out of hand. The 2025 season was when I think many of us felt the run defense needed some attention. The recent addition […]

Bills schedule release: Which game are fans most looking forward to in 2026?

The NFL Schedule Release became a proper noun about a decade ago, and the league has decided to morph that transformation into a week-long hullabaloo with time and date info on specific games trickling out before the actual release show, in primetime, on Thursday. When the schedule is actually released, it’s always a blast evaluating […]

Amari Cooper trade results: Bills final pick used in the 2026 NFL Draft

The Buffalo Bills traded for wide receiver Amari Cooper at the 2024 NFL trade deadline. It feels like forever ago, and in a lot of ways it was. Cooper didn’t play great in Buffalo, but he still had a little gas in the tank. Cooper was out of the NFL in 2025 after retiring from […]

How Brandon Beane’s drafts have compared to other top GMs

I recently laid out how Brandon Beane has drafted as the Buffalo Bills general manager relative to NFL-wide historical expectations for every single draft pick. The natural follow is to then compare Beane’s results to other perceived top GMs in the NFL, over the same time period. I used 2018 – 2023 in the initial […]

Buffalo Bills sign tight end Shane Zylstra, release kicker

Buffalo Bills have made another post-draft signing, this time it’s on offense — former Lions tight end Shane Zylstra has been added on a one-year contract. On Monday, the team agreed to terms on a one-year deal with former Chiefs edge rusher Mike Danna. The signing’s corresponding move — to keep the Bills roster at […]

How good have Brandon Beane’s drafts really been?

Assessing the quality of Brandon Beane’s drafts is a hotly debated topic among Buffalo Bills fans, and one to which I assume they ultimately want a definitive answer. I’ve set out to provide that answer, and it goes far beyond how I personally feel the draft work of the club’s president of football operations and […]

Buffalo Bills fans are divided with Lions as opponent in the home opener

On Monday afternoon, it was officially announced that the Buffalo Bills would host the Detroit Lions on Amazon Prime’s first Thursday Night Football game of the season on September 17. This game will take place during the second week of the 2026 season, as the Bills play their first regular season game at the new […]

Mike Danna could help fix the run defense for Buffalo Bills

The Buffalo Bills have signed OLB/DE Mike Danna, formerly a member of conference rival Kansas City. With the Bills’ coaching change being what it is, a defensive facelift was a pretty predictable outcome for this season. What do the Buffalo Bills see in Danna? Kansas City has won a big game or two during Danna’s […]

Where should Skyler Bell go in your 2026 Dynasty Fantasy rookie drafts?

For dynasty fantasy football players, the moment the clock strikes zero on the NFL Draft at the end of April, the strategizing begins for their annual rookie drafts. 10 team or 12 team, superflex or not, tight end premium or not, PPR or standard…whatever the structure, players all over the world are locking in as […]

Bills news: Buffalo bringing in two-time Super Bowl champion pass rusher

The Buffalo Bills continue to tinker with their roster during the offseason, and the latest signing is a veteran pass rusher and two-time Super Bowl champion: Mike Danna (pictured below).

Buffalo Bills sign OLB Mike Danna to one-year deal

The Buffalo Bills are adding a pass-rusher to their defensive line, as the club has announced it has come to terms with veteran edge-rusher Mike Danna, who visited with the team late last week. Danna, 28, spent the first six seasons of his career with the Chiefs and faced the Bills nine times since his […]

Is the Buffalo Bills 2026 roster better than 2025?

After the first non-AFC East winning campaign since 2019, the Buffalo Bills can reasonably look for clear improvement in many key areas of their roster for the 2026 season. Let’s go position-by-position, identifying which position groups are better or worse than last year’s iteration for the Bills. QUARTERBACK: Push — Sure, there’s a new backup […]

2026 NFL Draft: What I would have done in Brandon Beane’s place

I genuinely liked this 2026 draft for the Buffalo Bills. And I mean that. After going through every pick and asking myself what I would have done instead, I’m honestly not sure my class is better than Beane’s. That’s a real compliment to the GM and his scouting staff. But I’d be lying if I […]

Like all NFL teams, the Buffalo Bills are at the point in year where team building takes priority. Each year around this time, Bills players take part in a tug-of-war for little more than bragging rights.
