Bills Positional Analysis & Grades Heading Into Browns Week

Bills Positional Analysis & Grades Heading Into Browns Week

Author: Blue Wire December 18, 2025 Duration: 1:14:34

On this episode of Talking Buffalo, Patrick Moran is joined by Matt Warren from SB Nation for their weekly positional analysis of the Buffalo Bills, including grades for each position before turning their attention to matchup on Sunday against the Cleveland Browns the Bills will be significantly favored in yet can't take lightly.

There wasn't much abnormal about the Bills performance this past Sunday in Foxboro against the New England Patriots. They gave up at least 31 points, which of course Buffalo won seeing they're now 4-0 this season when giving up at least 31 points. Matt and Patrick talk about some of the things the Bills did as a team that for the time being anyway kept alive Buffalo's hopes of a sixth consecutive divisional title.

In terms of their weekly positional analysis it pretty much has read like it has most the season, with Buffalo excelling at quarterback, running back and tight end on the offense side with the defense yet again being a complete mixed bag. Old vets like Tre White and Matt Milano really stepped up in this game, which helped overcome other veterans like Shaq Thompson and Larry Ogunjobi having mostly lousy outings. The guys talk about it and Matt, as usual assigns a grade for each position.

They also take a look at the Browns, who have a very bad record and are pretty void of talent, but have some playmakers on defense and none so more than Myles Garrett, who can literally break the all-time NFL single season sack record this Sunday against the Bills. That and plenty more.
