Bills Positional Analysis, Grades & Looking Towards Philly

Bills Positional Analysis, Grades & Looking Towards Philly

Author: Blue Wire December 24, 2025 Duration: 1:12:13

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 from the Cleveland game before turning their attention towards Sunday's home matchup that may---or may not end up being meaningful.

Clean and pretty are not adjectives that would describe Buffalo's performance against the three-win Browns on the road this past Sunday. What matters most of course is that Buffalo found a way to win anyway, 23-20 and keep alive their hopes of a AFC east divisional title. The guys go through the game not so much in recap style but instead positionally, talking about what they liked and didn't before Matt ultimately assigns his weekly grade for each unit.

They also spend some time talking about a Philadelphia Eagles team coming to Orchard Park this Sunday that gets two key starters back from injury and while they're not quite the juggernaut they were last year in winning the Super Bowl right now, they're still a super talented and formidable foe the Bills will need to beat if they have any divisional title aspirations going into the final week.

Also, with Christmas coming Patrick shares some personal thoughts that've long made the holiday a bittersweet one for him. That and tons more.
