Bills and Beers: A Buffalo Bills Podcast

Week 629 The End

Mon, 06 Sep 2021 23:07:09 -0500

It took nearly a year to figure out how to say this. Sorry it wasn't shorter. GO BILLS

2020 Wrap Up

Thu, 28 Jan 2021 10:19:13 -0500

A little bit KC, a little bit look back, a little bit look ahead. It's everything you'd want from a final act of a dynamite season, GO BILLS!

Bills over Ravens, Division Round: DANCING! FINAL FOUR!

Sun, 17 Jan 2021 02:37:06 -0500

We beat the Ravens, they weren't that good, we don't know who we're playing next but we're better than 28 other NFL teams right now, and that cannot be disputed. GO BILLS

Wild Card Win 2020

Sat, 09 Jan 2021 21:06:19 -0500

Playoff football is going to take some getting used to because the last month of the regular season was fun. That was not fun. But we won!! We're on to the next one, GO BILLS!

Week 17 Dolphins (2020)

Mon, 04 Jan 2021 00:29:08 -0500

At this point, it's not even fair. The wind's at our back and these Bills just continue to ROLL ON. We love it. We're speechless. GO BILLS!

Week 16 Patriots (2020)

Tue, 29 Dec 2020 01:58:31 -0500

GO BILLS. There's nothing left to say anymore other than GO BILLS. Just keep GOING BILLS!

Week 15 Broncos (2020)

Sun, 20 Dec 2020 16:05:29 -0500

WE ARE THE CHAMPIONS! Better late than never. Hamstrung by a busted keyboard (for all those who read the ep notes last week, you might have seen this one coming), we're getting this to you after the dust has settled, but one thing that will never be taken away from you or anyone else in BillsMafia: The Buffalo Bills are your 2020 AFC EAST CHAMPIONS GO BILLS

Week 14 Steelers (2020)

Mon, 14 Dec 2020 02:15:09 -0500

THE PRIME TIME BILLS!! #WINNING See if yu can guess which key n my keybard stpped wrking. G BILLS!!

Week 13 Niners (2020)

Tue, 08 Dec 2020 01:57:35 -0500

Well that was the complete game we've been waiting for and it happened on a prime time MNF stage with Josh Allen lighting it up for the best game in his career. Life is good. There's a global pandemic right now, but life is good. GO BILLS!

Week 12 Chargers (2020)

Sun, 29 Nov 2020 22:59:00 -0500

----more----Bills come off their bye and pick up another AFC win, all is good, much to be thankful for, GO BILLS!

Week 10 Arizona (2020)

Sun, 15 Nov 2020 23:53:09 -0500

Well that was friggin awesome for about four minutes. GO BILLS!

Week 9 Seahawks (2020)

Tue, 10 Nov 2020 23:41:02 -0500

The team is winning. It is fun. GO BILLS

Week 8 Patriots* (2020)

Mon, 02 Nov 2020 00:17:50 -0500

We were all much happier when expectations were much lower. Heavy is the head, Bills Mafia, but at least it's our turn to wear the crown.

Week 7 Jets (2020)

Mon, 26 Oct 2020 10:15:12 -0500

An historically weird victory deserves an equally non-traditional podcast. See if you can spot the difference! GO BILLS!

Week 6 Chiefs (2020)

Mon, 19 Oct 2020 21:06:39 -0500

These were not the Bills we were expecting to see, this is outcome, and the way it was achieved was not what we were hoping to enjoy. TGIJ next week.

Week 4 Raiders (2020)

Sun, 04 Oct 2020 22:45:26 -0500

Only thing slowing down this Bills train is sickness or injuries. Mark it. GO BILLS!

Week 3 Rams (2020)

Sun, 27 Sep 2020 22:44:45 -0500

By Friday our pulses will return to their normal resting heart rates, but until then, we're AMPED and in utter disbelief over these Cardiac Bills!

Week 2 Dolphins (2020)

Tue, 22 Sep 2020 22:49:47 -0500

Like the Bills' second half offense this podcast is better late than never and also historic, dominant and lots and lots and lots of family fun.

Week 1 Jets (2020)

Mon, 14 Sep 2020 23:02:22 -0500

The Bills are perfect through one! Could they have been better? Sure, but the ugly win column doesn't appear on this ledger, so we're heading to Miami with the best record possible. GO BILLS!

2020 Pre-Week 1

Wed, 09 Sep 2020 21:15:19 -0500

It's finally happened, another football season (hopefully) is upon us. Will it last? This is, by most accounts, the best Bills squad in the last 20 years, but will it all be for naught? Only time will tell.

COVIDcast No. 2 | Draft & Schedule

Sun, 17 May 2020 13:14:01 -0500

We have rookies and a schedule. We're back in higher fidelity, and one of us has her COVID-19 survival story to share. Not going anywhere for a while? GO BILLS!

2020 Free Agency

Thu, 26 Mar 2020 07:46:07 -0500

Not going anywhere for a while? Grab an XL lo-fi version of Bills and Beers, now featuring non-expert COVID-19 musings from an actual medical professional! Also free agency and Stefon Diggs talk. GO BILLS!

WILD CARD Texans

Sun, 05 Jan 2020 16:03:44 -0500

That'll do it for the 2019 season. A real crusher. But if this team can stay healthy, then all the foundation talk will come to form in 2020, you can bet on that. GO BILLS!

Week 16 Patriots

Sun, 22 Dec 2019 00:25:04 -0500

By now there are many aspects of the biannual Pats* matchup which have become excruciatingly reliable--not least of which are the highly vulgar podcasts that follow. You've been warned. We're going to the playoffs, resting the starters, GO BILLS.

Week 15 Steelers

Mon, 16 Dec 2019 02:19:41 -0500

We're in, baby. The Buffalo Bills are in the postseason and many of the stigma plaguing this franchise have been laid to rest. Let's not waste anymore time, and get into it. GO BILLS!!

Week 14 Ravens

Sun, 08 Dec 2019 22:04:49 -0500

With house money, the Bills went all in on red and came up 7 points short to the best team in football. Now begins the stretch that matters, so here's hoping they fix what ails them as the postseason draws nigh. GO BILLS!

Week 13 Cowboys

Thu, 28 Nov 2019 22:49:48 -0500

Happy Thanksgiving INDEED! The whole world was watching while Josh Allen and these Bills put an exclamation point on their now 9-3 record. We've got 10 days to savor and enjoy this one before Baltimore comes to town, so LAP IT UP, BILLS NATION!

Week 12 Broncos

Sun, 24 Nov 2019 21:49:08 -0500

This might honestly be some of our best work to date, or may be it's the 8-3 record speaking, may be it's the second consecutive decisive win, may be it's the upcoming holiday WHO CARES. Take this on your travels, GO BILLS!

Week 11 Dolphins

Sun, 17 Nov 2019 22:48:36 -0500

We bounced back in a major way today, and also the Bills won! Plenty to be optimistic about as the team puts together the final wins needed for a playoff push, starting with 37 points from the offense. It's going to be a wild ride, GO BILLS!

Week 9 Redskins

Sun, 03 Nov 2019 21:38:42 -0500

And with that, we've matched last year's wins in half the games. It's been an ugly road to 6-2, but one this team hasn't been down since Clinton's first term. So we'll take it. We'll take the win, we'll take the way the AFC is shaping out, and we'll take it straight to Cleveland, GO #BILLS!

Week 7 Dolphins

Sun, 20 Oct 2019 20:55:47 -0500

Winning ugly beats losing pretty, and a 5-1 record is all that matters. This was the first of a three game home stand, and hopefully the post-bye rust has been sufficiently knocked off. GO BILLS!

Week 5 Titans

Sun, 06 Oct 2019 20:09:20 -0500

A nice soft landing heading into the bye! Really couldn't have asked for much more from the #Bills or from teams around the AFC in these first five weeks, so much to enjoy and feel glad about while they're off. GO BILLS!

Week 4 Patriots

Sun, 29 Sep 2019 20:30:38 -0500

Fair warning to some of our more gentile listeners: this podcast, much like today's game, get's pretty profane about halfway through the first quarter. We're still 3-1, everyone figured 3-1 was best case scenario, let's clean it up and head into the bye 4-1, GO BILLS!

Week 3 Bengals

Sun, 22 Sep 2019 20:53:38 -0500

A win is a win is a win is a win is a win. And now it's Pats* week. Josh Allen digs himself into a hole then crawls himself out. It's down but never out with this guy, and quite honestly, we're loving it. GO BILLS!

Week 2 Giants

Sun, 15 Sep 2019 20:28:30 -0500

They're off to the start they needed, and now the #Bills come back to #Buffalo for a shot at three in a row before their first true test. Today's game was considerably less stressful than last week's, and you'll probably find the same to be true of this week's pod. GO BILLS!

Week 1 Jets

Sun, 08 Sep 2019 20:47:01 -0500

Never doubted them for a SECOND! The #Bills get a massively important win on the road against a division rival to kick off the season and the drama was INTENSE. Does this week's pod do it justice? Tune in to find out, GO BILLS!

2019 Preseason

Fri, 16 Aug 2019 23:16:54 -0500

The roster is beginning to take shape, and reasons for optimism are aplenty. It was a beatdown tonight in Charlotte, but what does it all mean for the 2019 #Bills? We're back for season 11, so tune in, GO BILLS!

2019 Draft

Sun, 28 Apr 2019 17:51:09 -0500

The wait is over, the picks are in! What did we learn? What did we love? What did we hate? It's still a long time until Week One, all that's left to do is sit back and wait. GO #BILLS!

2019 Offseason

Fri, 22 Mar 2019 00:23:53 -0500

With the All About Allen offseason taking shape, we get some clarity on the #Bills go-forward plans and what we should expect from the draft. Our thoughts on what's transpired, what's already been discussed and what's to come...GO BILLS!

Week 17 Dolphins

Sun, 30 Dec 2018 21:40:39 -0500

And with THAT, our crew has completed our 10th #Bills season--the FIRST that we've wrangled an episode each week during the regular season for better or for worse. Kyle Williams will be missed, we've been a fan of his from day one, but the future is looking bright in #Buffalo, so let's get into it!

Week 16 Patriots*

Sun, 23 Dec 2018 20:03:56 -0500

A rerun that nobody asked for. But today's pod introduces a brand new, very special segment, so tune in and forget all about the fact that this was yet another stupid #Bills loss, this time to a vulnerable, faltering Pats* team.

Week 15 Lions

Sun, 16 Dec 2018 20:56:21 -0500

Each week that Josh Allen takes a step in his progression he exposes the weaknesses that exist everywhere else on the offense. Yes, an #NFL team should absolutely win if they only give up 13 points, and the #Bills did, so let's chat about it!

Week 14 Jets

Sun, 09 Dec 2018 21:48:33 -0500

The first chapter of Allen v Darnold was a sour one indeed. You'll hear it in our voices, this was a tough and contentious one, but a visit from our good friends at @BBillsMNY got us back on track, thinking good thoughts about days to come as we looked back on dismal days gone by. Go #Bills!

Week 13 Dolphins

Sun, 02 Dec 2018 21:36:52 -0500

#BillsMafia has never had more hope coming out of a crushing loss like today's. The outcome and many things about the game were infuriating, but this may be our cheeriest pod of the year. Onward and upwards, GO #BILLS!

Week 12 Jags

Sun, 25 Nov 2018 21:07:59 -0500

So many stories of the day--the refs, the brawl, The Kid--all bubbling over to form the festering rivalry that is #Bills v Jags. The crew was traveling for Thanksgiving, but we roped in who we could, and even had a special appearance from @RockpileReport, so tune in!

Week 10 Jets

Sun, 11 Nov 2018 21:43:34 -0500

The Matt Barkley era has begun! For the first time in a long time we had a good time watching a #Bills game, and today's win gives us so much more to consider. You gotta hand it to this team, they know how to keep it interesting, GO #BILLS!

Week 9 Bears

Sun, 04 Nov 2018 19:42:18 -0500

This makes three consecutive weeks in which someone has asked "what the hell are you going to talk about on the podcast?" Well, you'll have to tune in to find out. These are dark days indeed in #Bills nation, and we make no promises for lightening the mood. Sorry, not sorry.

Week 8 Patriots*

Tue, 30 Oct 2018 01:30:57 -0500

I think we speak for all of #BillsMafia when we say we would have preferred a game that DIDN'T hold our interest and hope until the fourth quarter, but alas. Another routine Pats* game down and questions aplenty about "the process" linger. GO #BILLS!

Week 7 Colts

Sun, 21 Oct 2018 19:54:37 -0500

And now we're screaming. This is a self-made disaster and it's infuriating, so we recorded a postgame podcast for #BillsMafia to ignore. Can't blame them, really. This #Bills team is a disgrace. Next: The Pats* on MNF. Awesome. Go Bills?

Week 6 Texans

Mon, 15 Oct 2018 23:21:07 -0500

Oh, what's up, #Billsmafia? You thought that just because that game left you speechles that we were too? Ha, fat chance. This is season 10 of BnB and the #Bills haven't crushed our spirits yet. Sure, this is unfathomably one of the darkest points for the franchise, but whatever, a podcast we shall record: GO BILLS!

Week 5: Titans

Sun, 07 Oct 2018 20:30:47 -0500

#BILLS win! A last second field goal is the difference between a joyous pod and one where we complain about Josh Allen the entire time. #Buffalo now one step closer to .500, with another pair of road games coming. Could they get it going and bring back it home to an electric #BillsMafia on MNF? That's the hope, but with this team it's anybody's guess. GO BILLS!

Week 4: Packers

Sun, 30 Sep 2018 20:07:08 -0500

Well that was awful. Up down, up down, up down, up down: probably what we can expect for the 2018 #Bills season and today was, well, down. It's enough to drive #BillsMafia insane. With 12 weeks to go, it's anyone's guess which team will show up week to week, GO BILLS!

Week 3: Vikings

Sun, 23 Sep 2018 20:36:54 -0500

Well, that was fun. Does anyone in #BillsMafia feel confident saying s/he knows what this #Bills team is all about? Because we sure as hell don't. But today was an absolute blast and we had a terrific time talking about it. Hope you enjoy it too, GO BILLS!

Week 2 Chargers

Sun, 16 Sep 2018 20:24:01 -0500

So many questions remain after today's "performance." Chief among them the thing that's hampering The Kid's development most: the O-Line, the receivers or the defense that can't stop...anything. Also: Vontae Davis? WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON!? Listen in, we try to make sense of it, GO #BILLS!

Week 1: Baltimore

Sun, 09 Sep 2018 20:34:15 -0500

Well, the #Bills couldn't have asked for a worse start. Quarterback questions loom, and the inevitable step back seems to be fully upon us. These are the times that try our mettle, #BillsMafia, so listen likewise! Subscribe on #iTunes if you haven't already, and tell everyone you know in Bills Nation how you found this podcast, GO BILLS!

2018 Preseason Recap

Thu, 30 Aug 2018 23:40:24 -0500

From this day forward, #BillsMafia will remember this night as The McCarron Game, probably, may be. The regular season is only about a week away and #Bills fans everywhere are ready to see what this team has to offer. We last checked in on draft night, so there's plenty to cover before the real fun begins, GO BILLS!

The 2018 Draft (Round 1)

Fri, 27 Apr 2018 00:19:31 -0500

It finally happened...TWICE! #Buffalo goes up and gets the guy who will quarterback their offense, then goes up again to get the guy who will quarterback their defense. Allen, of course, being the headline here and a polarizing selection for #Bills fans everywhere. Only time will prove the true value of these picks. Until then, we can only hope...GO BILLS!

2018 Free Agency...Holy Crap, It's Happening

Thu, 15 Mar 2018 23:19:56 -0500

The fix is in! #Buffalo is putting all its eggs in the franchise QB basket and we STILL have another six weeks before learning how this all plays out. It's been a stupefying ballet of strategic moves that have led to this moment in time and we're all left to fixate on what the future holds. WHAT A TIME TO BE ALIVE, WHAT A TIME TO BE A #BILLS FAN, GO BILLS!

WILD CARD: Jacksonville

And just like that, #Buffalo has been eliminated from the playoffs. Safe to say the #Bills have been playing with house money since week five, and if we were to be honest, the real star of the sho was #BillsMafia this week representing in all corners of the globe. What a wild run, and what a fantastic season, GO BILLS!

It happened, it finally happened. we don't know how and we just don't care, but #Buffalo is going to the playoffs, baby! Happy New Year, #BillsMafia, ring in 2018 with our haphazard postgame podcast! GO #BILLS!

Week 15 Miami

Sun, 17 Dec 2017 21:07:26 -0500

Subscribe to Bills and Beers on iTunes of Stitcher if you haven't already. You can also stream through the Podbean website or App.

The #Bills run away with their sixth home win of 2017 in a game that should have been much more decisive. A fitting swan song for Kyle Williams, and another key milestone achieved by Shady on his quest to Canton. This is the closest #Buffalo has been to the playoffs since 2004, how it all ends, nobody knows. Enjoy the ride, #BillsMafia, GO BILLS!

Week 14 Indianapolis

Sun, 10 Dec 2017 21:09:53 -0500

Is it possible for a memorable game to be so forgettable? Injuries and ill-conceived coaching decisions plague what should have been a fun snow game in #Buffalo today. But the #Bills took care of business against the #Colts and got some help around the league, so with three games to play, the playoffs remain in sight, GO BILLS!

Week 13 New England

Sun, 03 Dec 2017 21:12:24 -0500

This may go down as one of the most boring #Bills #Pats games save for Gronk's elbow drop which resulted in a 15 yard penalty on Jerry Hughes. Otherwise, another year, another reminder of what #Buffalo isn't. Playoff chances remain slim, with a big opportunity next week, GO BILLS!

Week 12 Kansas City

Tue, 28 Nov 2017 23:53:24 -0500

A win is a win and playoff hopes survive until crushed. #Buffalo had lots to be thankful for last weekend, particularly an enemic #Chiefs offense that may have fooled us into thinking this defense is back. We'll certainly no for sure Sunday when the #Bills take on the Pats*, but until then, savor the victory while it lasts, GO BILLS!

Week 11 San Diego

Sun, 19 Nov 2017 21:26:39 -0500

The #Bills season is on life support and Nate Peterman just tripped over the cord. Shut it down, turn it off, go home, that'll do it for 2017. Yes, MATHEMATICALLY they're still in the playoffs, but the team getting fat on turnovers for the first six weeks aint coming back. #Buffalo's playoff drought marches on, each step more depressing than the last. GO #BILLS?

Week 10 New Orleans

Sun, 12 Nov 2017 18:47:49 -0500

The #Bills plummeted back to #Earth this Sunday against the NFL's hottest team. They remain in playoff contention, but at question now is whether it even matters. BONUS THIS WEEK: tune in to hear from our friends over at @The Rock Pile Report. Dark days in #Buffalo, but we'll be back stronger than ever next week, GO BILLS!

Week 9 New York Jets

Fri, 03 Nov 2017 01:27:01 -0500

Well, yeah. Wow. That. Yeah, that was bad. #Buffalo regresses tremendously in a big spot against the #Jets. Everything that had been going right suddenly went wrong. So we recorded a podcast about it. GO #BILLS!

Week 8 Oakland

Sun, 29 Oct 2017 17:57:45 -0500

THE #BILLS ARE 5-2! A beat down today in Orchard Park of the #Oakland #Raiders and #Buffalo now has #BillsMafia thinking #playoffs. Playoffs? Playoffs. Stream this week's postgame show below and/orsubscribe on iTunes if you haven't already. GO BILLS!

Week 7 Tampa Bay

Sun, 22 Oct 2017 17:57:30 -0500

Holy #Bills football, ladies and gentlemen! For once the offense does its part to bail out the defense and #Buffalo comes through in dramatic fashion! The Bills were their own worst enemey in this one, but they got the win anyway. Stream this week's episode below or join the rest of #BillsMafia by downloading and subscribing on iTunes. GO BILLS!

Week 5 Cincinnati

Sun, 08 Oct 2017 17:56:37 -0500

Not a shocking loss for #Buffalo, but one that could have easily been avoided with better quarterback play. That's right, if the #Bills want to win enough games to make the playoffs, their offense needs to be more efficient and that begins and ends with Tyrod Taylor. Want to debate it? Download our podcast and refute any of the points we make. Until then, GO BILLS!

Week 4 Atlanta

Sun, 01 Oct 2017 17:50:35 -0500

Well, well. Raise your hand if you saw THAT coming...The #Bills finish the first quarter 3-1 after a stunning road win against the Atlanta Falcons. #BillsMafia can't wait to welcome the squad back to #Buffalo, but it will have to wait since it's on to Cincinnati. For now, let's savor this incredible #TEAM victory over the reigning NFC Champions, GO BILLS!

Week 3 Denver

Sun, 24 Sep 2017 17:55:21 -0500

#Buffalo with an incredible #TEAM win today! This defense continues to impress while the offense continues to just enough to keep the games close. The #Bills remain in first place in the AFC East through three weeks with a huge challenge ahead of them in Atlanta. But for now, #BillsMafia is savoring the sweet taste of victory. GO BILLS!

Week 2 Carolina

Sun, 17 Sep 2017 17:41:04 -0500

The defense gave #Buffalo the opportunity to win, but the couldn't just win the game for us. A scrappy, low scoring game exposed the #Bills offense for what it is. Let's build a foundation on defense and look to the future for this offense, because Lord knows the pieces (QB) aren't there in 2017. GO BILLS!

Week 1 Jets

Sun, 10 Sep 2017 17:41:44 -0500

No surprises here, the #Bills took care of business in #Buffalo over the #Jets today to move to 1-0 and FIRST PLACE IN THE AFC EAST! It's tough to say we learned anything from today's contest, but who cares? We won! GO BILLS! #BillsMafia

2017 PRESEASON

Fri, 01 Sep 2017 00:22:20 -0500

For #BillsMafia, the offseason is more likely to entertain than the actual season, and thus far 2017 did not disapoint. Retirements, trades and the beginnings of a full-fledged QB controversy now carry this season into live action, but thus far it's been one hell of a ride. Although the preseason has officially closed, now begins the 2018 preseason that will last all the way through the draft, may be then we'll be ready to get after football again. GO #BILLS!

2017 | THE PROCESS

Tue, 09 May 2017 12:39:57 -0500

And just like, the coup is complete. It's Sean's team now. Whaley's gone and the Pegulas have put their faith in Mickey D's untested ability to build a team from bottom to top. Is this the nuclear blast we've been waiting for? Will it finally work? Four agonizing months from now, we'll have a better idea. GO BILLS!

Another Era Ends, Another Begins

Wed, 18 Jan 2017 21:23:49 -0500

The #Patriots* are in the AFC Championship and the #Bills just introduced a new head coach. It must be January. Let's forget about 2016--the injuries, the firings, the longest onset kick for a TD ever, the week's worth of mangled press conferences. Let's forget ALL OF THAT and count our lucky Irish stars that Mickey D is here to put #BillsMafia on that muscular back of his and carry us to the promise land, GO BILLS!

Week 16 Miami

Sat, 24 Dec 2016 18:48:45 -0500

Well, that'll do it. The #Bills playoff chances are officially dashed. At the time of pulication, it seems this team is inching closer and closer to complete upheaval. The next coach/QB to lead #Buffalo to the Promise Land remains TBD. Oh well. Merry Christmas, #BillsMafia, GO BILLS!

Week 15 Cleveland

Sun, 18 Dec 2016 19:14:03 -0500

#Buffalo stomped #Cleveland to earn its seventh victory of 2016, the most pointless victory for the better part of a decade. Questions still remain about the future of the #Bills organization. Will Rex Ryan be back? Why is Tyrod even playing out the season? Is Doug Whaley to blame for all of this? And what exactly is Russ Brandon's job again? Kick back and crack a cold one with us, it's going to be a long off season. GO BILLS!

Week 14 Steelers

Sun, 11 Dec 2016 18:29:17 -0500

#Buffalo bit the big one today. Any playoff hopes left for the #Bills were all but obliterated by the #Steelers in a game much more one-sided than the socreboard might suggest. At time of posting Tyrod is still the quarterback and Rex still the coach, but it seems like everything is up for debate now at One #Bills Drive. GO BILLS!

Week 13 Raiders

Sun, 04 Dec 2016 21:59:35 -0500

That's it. The gloves are off. If #Buffalo wants to compete in this league they have to be better. Period. The #Bills offense can't disappear for a quarter and a half and they can't field a secondary that couldn't stop St. Margaret's school for blind hemophiliacs. We pride ourselves on optimism, but even we have our limits. GO BILLS!

Week 12 Jaguars

Thu, 01 Dec 2016 10:15:28 -0500

#Bills get the win in #Buffalo to keep their playoff hopes alive! We'll take an ugly win over a promising loss any day and looking ahead to the #Raiders, whatever they have to do to get out of #Oakland with a W is fine by us. GO BILLS! #BillsMafia #BnBSM

Week 11 Cincy

Mon, 21 Nov 2016 23:54:29 -0500

The #Bills gut out an ugly road win in Cincy when every last conference victory matters. It's time to start stacking wins if they have any prayer of the playoffs, but springs eternal throughout #BillsMafia. GO BILLS!

Week 9 Seattle

Wed, 09 Nov 2016 01:32:30 -0500

#Buffalo now the latest victim of a controversial prime time game to fall in the Seahawks favor. But it was a great game. The #Bills have much to be proud of, and at this point, they have no choice but to return from the bye hell bent on making a run for the playoffs. GO BILLS! #BillsMafia

Week 8 Patriots*

Sun, 30 Oct 2016 18:43:45 -0500

The annual New England Patriots* beat down was expedited this time by the absences and/or limitations of McCoy, Watkins, Salas, Goodwin, A Williams, LorAx, Cay, Woods and Tate. Since we were told the first matchup didn't count against the Bradyless Pats*, then this too will go down as a non-game. Right? That's what we were told, so it must be right! GO BILLS!

Week 7 Miami

Sun, 23 Oct 2016 17:43:57 -0500

What a stinker! The Bills offense couldn't get ANYTHING going against what was supposed to be one of the worst defenses in the league. They were giving up lots of yardage in the run game, but to no consequence until late in the game when they final began to break down. This was the one we've been waiting for, on to New England, I guess. GO BILLS!

Week 6 49ers

Sun, 16 Oct 2016 17:58:59 -0500

Make it four, BABY! Buffalo takes care of business and down the 9ers 46-19 to move to 4-2 on the season. They made the 31st ranked rushing defense play as if and the wins they keep on a stacking! GO BILLS!

Week 5 Rams

Sun, 09 Oct 2016 21:20:46 -0500

The Bills rumbled their way to victory in LA LA Land, 30-19 over the Rams. With two of the worst quarterbacks coming down the shoot, Bills Nation is feeling really good about its chances of getting to 5-2. Here we go! GO BILLS!

Week 4 Patriots*

Sun, 02 Oct 2016 17:57:41 -0500

The Bills come up BIG in Foxboro, pitching the first shut out in the history of Gillette Stadium. With three winnable games coming up, the Bills get back on track in a big way, GO BILLS!

Week 3 Cardinals

Sun, 25 Sep 2016 17:45:39 -0500

They did it! They did it! They defied all odds and they did it! A special teams score and four defensive turnovers plus a balanced attack on offense ALL IN ON LYNN! The Bills did they unthinkable and got the win at New Era Field GO BILLS!

Week 2 Jets

Fri, 16 Sep 2016 00:59:14 -0500

A defense that could get no stops and a QB that didn't have it in him to take the game over--instead, Ryan Fitzatrick had the game of his career, and the Bills are at the bottom looking up. The road to the playoffs now seems impossible and Bills fans will be left to figure out exactly what the hell is going on with this team that brings us so much god damned misery.

Week 1 Ravens

Sun, 11 Sep 2016 19:41:56 -0500

It was practically impossible to predict a stinker that stinky from the offense. What was meant to be the unit to carry the team in 2016 was a complete and utter letdown in the season opener. Tyrod looked terrible, and the result was a great defensive effort gone to waste. They'll have four days to shake it off before returning to The Cap for the prime time home opener against the division rival Jets. Here's hoping they figure things out by then!

2016 Preseason

Sun, 21 Aug 2016 10:25:59 -0500

Coming off a less than optimal week, the Bills snuffed out the Giants in preseason matchup numero dos. The New Era began with Buffalo's first preseason shutout since 1996, the last time the stadium hosted a playoff game. You do the math. Guys are getting cut, guys are going to rehab, what a time to be alive! GO BILLS!

2016 Draft

Sun, 01 May 2016 15:53:49 -0500

This year's draft told us a lot about where the team stands with its quarterback and with its commitment to Rex Ryan and his defense. Plenty to talk about from just outside Draft Town, GO BILLS!

2016 Pre-Draft Offseason

Thu, 31 Mar 2016 12:40:47 -0500

No splashes of note and no recent news to clamor about, the Chicago Bills Backers assemble to test out some new equipment and check in with listeners. We look forward to a live recording at Chicago's 2016 Draft Town and will keep everyone updated with the exciting developments our new technology affords us. GO BILLS!

Week 17 Jets

Sun, 03 Jan 2016 18:26:29 -0500

What a way to Jets your season finale. With playoffs on the line, New York FALLS to the Buffalo Bills at Ralph Wilson Stadium 22-17. Ryan Fitzpatrick, red hot over his last five starts, brought back some '11 Fitzmagic, by leading late-game comebacks en route to setting a Jets franchise record for touchdowns in a season returned to form Sunday against his old teammates, ending each of his final three fourth quarter comeback tries with an interception. Jets out, Bills out. 2015 out. GO BILLS!

Week 15 Redskins

Mon, 21 Dec 2015 10:13:58 -0500

It's officially hit the fan. A cobbled defense tapped out, an embattled coach against a locker room divided. It must be Christmas, because there's turmoil in Buffalo!

Week 14 Eagles

Wed, 16 Dec 2015 00:18:34 -0500

It has finally happened, a 2015 retrospective. Sunday's loss practically ensures the drought continues. The crew looks back to look ahead--who's in, who's out, who's stepping up and who needs to. Thank you for joining us for a cathartic recap of a season that never quite was. Subscribe on iTunes and tell everyone you know how you found us, GO BILLS!

Week 13 Texans

Sun, 06 Dec 2015 18:30:57 -0500

One would think that 4-0 in the fourth quarter would put the Bills in the postseason. Is it that easy? With three straight against the woeful NFC East be enough to keep the playoff-bound momentum alive? Following a win over the Texans today, it's hard to believe anything is impossible. GO BILLS!

Week 12 Chiefs

Sun, 29 Nov 2015 18:05:44 -0500

What did we possibly expect? Not only was it a loss, but it was the kind of late-November loss that this team has cobbled together seemingly on an annual basis, each year of the 21st Century. Bills fans are right to be besides themselves at this point now that playoff hopes have been taken out of Buffalo's hands. It's been fun, Bills fans, but it seems as though are gaze would be better affixed toward 2016.

Week 11 Patriots*

Tue, 24 Nov 2015 03:42:49 -0500

And again, the slimmest of margins keeps these two teams forever separated. Going through this twice a year has officially taken its toll, but the Bills, incredibly, are still right in the mix with six games left to play, GO BILLS!

Week Ten Jets

Fri, 13 Nov 2015 01:21:57 -0500

A prime time win! The Bills have now positioned themselves as masters of their own fate as we come down the playoff stretch. Of course, that only means the heartbreak has greater potential, but we'll take survival any day of the week, GO BILLS!

Week Eight Dolphins

Sun, 08 Nov 2015 18:09:33 -0500

Buffalo got back on track with another convincing win over division "rival" Miami. It'd be great if the Bills could square off against Tannehill every week, but twice a year is plenty generous. Can't say enough about the career day Watkins had, Karlos Williams came rumbling back in a big way and Shady was Shady. It's fun to watch this team when they're healthy! Subscribe to this podcast on iTunes--tells your friends, tell your neighbors, tell your family, tell EVERYONE you know in Bills nation how you found our podcast, GO BILLS!

Week Seven Jags

Sun, 25 Oct 2015 12:40:15 -0500

That sucked. There's nothing left to say. This team is not as good as it's supposed to be. GO BILLS.

Week Six Bengals

Sun, 18 Oct 2015 17:46:35 -0500

The Bills were the lesser team today and they were soundly defeated in all phases of the game. It's getting harder and harder to find something positive to say about this team, but we'll give it our damnedest. GO BILLS!

Week Five Titans

Sun, 11 Oct 2015 19:24:07 -0500

There are no style wins in the NFL, which is why today's butt-ugly win still counts the same as any other. Tyrod Taylor finally took matters into his own hands and carried the ball, and the Bills to victory. GO BILLS!

Week Four Giants

Sun, 04 Oct 2015 17:39:31 -0500

Even for the Bills, this was one of the worst self-flagellating performances in recent memory. The penalties, the poor execution, the lost tempers, the officiating, it's harder to imagine a greater confluence of obstacles and The Bills did themselves no favors imposing many of them on themselves. We had no interest whatsoever in recording this podcast, but we're devoted to you, the listener, so tell your friends, tell your family, tell your neighbors, tell EVERYONE you know how you found this podcast. GO BILLS!

Week Three Miami

Sun, 27 Sep 2015 20:22:19 -0500

The Bills answered back in a big way to pick up their first division win of the season. The Dolphins never had a chance as Buffalo came out firing and kept the heat on until the final whistle. A very good team beat a good one today, and Bills fans are back down to Earth with 13 exciting games left to play. GO BILLS!

Week Two Patriots*

Sun, 20 Sep 2015 17:49:48 -0500

Well, crap. At least it was a loss we're accustomed to. Tom Brady had a HOF day and Tyrod Taylor just didn't have an answer. We have a lot of season left to play, but for now, we're all pretty depressed. GO BILLS!

Week One Colts

Sun, 13 Sep 2015 18:00:58 -0500

Quick out the gates, The Bills take down the 2014 AFC runners-up in convincing fashion. With immediate post-game hot takes, the new format takes the show to higher heights and deeper depths. The Chicago crew is back to give it all the got, GO BILLS!

Preseason Week One

Sat, 15 Aug 2015 17:09:34 -0500

2015 Off-Season Spectacular

Sun, 10 May 2015 09:00:00 -0500

Not since TO jerseys were flying off the racks throughout Western New York has Bills Nation been so electric with five months until the regular season kickoff. Change is in the air at One Bills Drive, and it smells like a playoff berth. GO BILLS!

Rex is Latin for King

Fri, 16 Jan 2015 13:47:33 -0500

Bills Nation is aflutter now that Buffalo has its new king. There are plenty of things to look forward to, and plenty of things to be concerned about and wonder. We'll hit each and every point...promise--GO BILLS!

2014 Year in Review & 2015 Speculation of the Everything

Sat, 03 Jan 2015 13:58:12 -0500

At least the Bills organization knows how to keep its fans on their offseason-toes. Another year, another coaching change, a vacancy at QB and an owner's wife attending interviews. This all feels about right. GO BILLS!

Week 16 Green Bay Recap & Oakland Preview

Thu, 18 Dec 2014 00:35:42 -0500

A loss this weekend and the Bills have no business talking about the post season. After the team's best win in a decade, it's put up or shut up time. This will be among the team's easiest tests of the season. It's time to take care of business. Then it's on to New England. GO BILLS!

Week 15 Denver recap & Green Bay Preview

Thu, 11 Dec 2014 23:10:53 -0500

The season has now reached the brink. The final game in 2014 to be played at RWS, and the Bills square off against arguably the best quarterback in the league. While they've come to rely on their defense, the biggest question mark going into Sunday will be the performance of the Buffalo offense. It all comes down to this--GO BILLS!

Week 14 Cleveland Recap & Denver Preview

Wed, 03 Dec 2014 22:23:59 -0500

Week 13 New York Recap & Cleveland Preview

Wed, 26 Nov 2014 23:52:34 -0500

Heading into Week 13, and playoff hopes have not yet been officially dashed. A streaky Cleveland opponent travels to the Ralph for yet ANOTHER make or break game for the Bills.

Week 12 Miami Review & New York Jests Preview

Wed, 19 Nov 2014 23:23:06 -0500

Well, it's happened again. It's November, which means the Bills now face near-impossible odds trying to climb back into the playoff race. Two very winnable home games coming up might provide the right circumstances, but Lord only knows what will happen--GO BILLS!

Week 11 Kansas City Recap & Miami Preview

Tue, 11 Nov 2014 22:27:58 -0500

The Bills will be fighting to keep their playoff hopes alive following a loss they had no business conceding Sunday. Short week, now under the lights in South Beach against a Miami team trying just as hard to stay relevant. All the makings for a classic Thursday night, GO BILLS!

Week 10 KC

Fri, 07 Nov 2014 00:46:15 -0500

The next four games will determine the fate of the 2014 season. Come out with a winning record and Marrone and Whaley keep their jobs. Split or come up empty, and it could be back to the drawing board. It all starts Sunday against the 5-3 Chiefs. GO BILLS!

BYE WEEK

Thu, 30 Oct 2014 20:05:58 -0500

After pounding the Jets at the Meadowlands, the Bills get to enjoy an extra long break before returning home to take on the Chiefs. Sit back, relax and enjoy your extra hour of sleep Saturday night. GO BILLS!

Week 8 New York Jests

Wed, 22 Oct 2014 20:17:40 -0500

In spite a dreadfully lackluster performance, the Bills eked out a win on a last second TD pass to Sammy Watkins. Now they face a hungry and desperate division rival on the road this week in New York. Will it be the precise and efficient Jets we saw last Thursday in New England, or can we expect Geno to be Geno? WHO KNOWS!? GO BILLS!

Week 7 Minnesota

Wed, 15 Oct 2014 23:31:36 -0500

After another crushing defeat to the Pats*, the Bills stay at home to take on the struggling Minnesota Vikings. This could kickstart a streak of five very winnable games. Or not. Who knows? GO BILLS!

Week 6 New England

Wed, 08 Oct 2014 19:08:52 -0500

This week's winner will lay claim to the number one spot in the AFC East. A hungry Patriots* team will look to continue their momentum following their big huge win on SNF while the Bills hope to recapture the magic from Detroit on the arm Kyle Orton. At the very least, it'll be thrilling--GO BILLS

Week 5 Detroit

Thu, 02 Oct 2014 19:18:57 -0500

This week Buffalo is in Detroit, Orton is under center and optimism is back in our hearts. After another topsy turvy week at One Bills Drive, we're more confident than ever that THIS is our year. GO BILLS!

Week 4 Houston

Wed, 24 Sep 2014 21:06:27 -0500

Just as we made adjustments to account for last week's audio issues, we're confident our team will make all the necessary adjustments to cover their...everything...issues. It's the first showdown against the Amish Rifle and the Bills are primed to get back to their winning ways. GO BILLS!

Week 3 San Diego

Wed, 17 Sep 2014 22:18:49 -0500

Back to Buffalo again this week to keep the winning ways on track. Another true test at the Ralph against a wily veteran quarterback, but we're certain our boys are up to the task. GO BILLS!

Thu, 11 Sep 2014 19:23:18 -0500

Week 13 Atlanta

Tue, 26 Nov 2013 13:00:57 -0500

Week 12 BYE

Thu, 21 Nov 2013 17:32:44 -0500

It's been 14 years since the Bills enjoyed a victory going into the bye week, but we won't use this as an opportunity expound on the significance of the Bills breaking a 14 year drought...yet. Or will we? GO BILLS!

Week 11 New York Jets

Fri, 15 Nov 2013 13:46:30 -0500

Gut check time for the Boys in Blue. A loss to division rival New York will pretty much be curtains for the season. Are EJ and the fellas up for the task? GO BILLS!

Week 10 Pittsburgh

Thu, 24 Oct 2013 14:07:52 -0500

Week 7 Miami

Thu, 17 Oct 2013 21:22:03 -0500

Week 11 Miami Dolphins

Wed, 14 Nov 2012 23:40:56 -0500

It's now or never for the Bills in their first primetime game since 2009. They haven't won a primetime game since December 2001, and CJ Spiller, the new feature back, has never suited up under the lights as a pro. GO BILLS!

Week 10 New England Patriots*

Fri, 09 Nov 2012 21:41:33 -0500

IF the BIlls were Rocky, this would be the moment in the final fight when Rocky gets his surge, forcing a seemingly impossible change of momentum, and overcoming his superior opponent, shocking the world. And acknowledging that Rocky exists, and also acknowledging a multi-layered dimension where countless realities exist, then elsewhere Rocky slipped getting up, allowing his towering rival to pummel him, just like we thought he would.
