The Buffalo Bills keep losing the wrong games, even if no loss is a good one to claim. Eight sacks and two more very ugly interceptions for quarterback Josh Allen.

Late in the third quarter, it was Spencer Brown’s turn in the blue medical tent on the Buffalo Bills sideline. The right tackle had his shoulder looked at by medical staff and then, after coming out of the tent, could be seen checking his strength as he pushed against athletic trainers. While Brown was ultimately cleared to return, it’s evident that he […]

This game was ugly. U-G-L-Y you ain’t got no alibi, ugly. The defense kept losing players to injury (yet still made some key stops) and the offense allowed a whopping EIGHT sacks on QB Josh Allen. The offensive line also got pretty banged up and even Allen himself looked hurt on a few plays. Throughout […]

Last year, Buffalo played horribly in a 23-20 loss at the Texans. Houston has not been a friendly venue for Buffalo, as […]

That means Hardman will at least miss the next four games on Buffalo’s schedule. It’s not an entirely surprising roster move given the news that the Bills brought back […]

The Buffalo Bills played a chaotic brand of dominating football against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers this past Sunday. It was the sort of game that endears quarterback Josh Allen to his faithful fans, where an ugly turnover or two prove mostly meaningless in the big picture. Most of all, Buffalo fielded a competent passing attack […]
