Bills Positional Analysis & Grades, Plus Looking At Cincinnati

Bills Positional Analysis & Grades, Plus Looking At Cincinnati

Author: Blue Wire December 3, 2025 Duration: 1:14:27

On this episode of Talking Buffalo, Patrick Moran is joined by Matt Warren from SB Nation for their weekly Buffalo Bills positional analysis and grades on the heels of last week's impressive 26-7 victory in Pittsburgh before turning a quick eye to what will be an exciting matchup this Sunday afternoon against the Cincinnati Bengals.

It wasn't exciting if you're into Josh Allen slinging the ball around but the Bills handled the Steelers on their home field in impressive fashion, led by a running game that simply imposed their will all over a helpless Pittsburgh defense. While it's obvious the Bills running backs and offensive line are going to grade (very) high, who else does Matt have his highest marks set on? Conversely, who will Matt have the most criticism for? Being negative is certainly hard to come by as this was arguably Buffalo's best road game of the season, especially given the injuries.

Also, the Bengals are coming to Orchard Park on Sunday afternoon a dangerous and desperate team. They're 4-8 on the season and need to win out to have a chance to make the post season, so this is essentially a playoff game for them. While their record stinks Joey Burrow is back and he doesn't. The Bengals are 8-0 in high last eight starts so the Bills will be severely tested.

Also discussed is another Bills injury, this time to Joey Bosa is going to thin out an already thinned out position. That plus Patrick may retire from in-game opinion tweets and much more.
