Bills Survive Dolphins (Week 3 Instant Live Reactions)

Bills Survive Dolphins (Week 3 Instant Live Reactions)

Author: Blue Wire September 19, 2025 Duration: 1:12:25

On this episode of Talking Buffalo, Patrick Moran is joined by Joe From Queens for plenty of instant live reaction just moments following the conclusion of the Buffalo Bills defeating the Miami Dolphins, 31-21 to win their third straight game to start the season.

It wasn't pretty by any means, especially on defense but the Bills continue to find a way. The guys go over James Cook again pacing the offense in the running game while Josh Allen threw for three more touchdowns and still doesn't have an interception on the season. Speaking of picks, Tua's late in the fourth quarter to Terrel Bernard proved to be the pivotal point of the game. The guys discuss how Tua's lone real mistake and a horrible roughing the punter penalty by Miami's best interior defensive lineman helped seal their doom on a night they gave Buffalo plenty to worry about.

While there's plenty to like including Buffalo winning the turnover battle for a NFL all-time record 25th consecutive time, there's also things to worry about and some are discussed--including an anemic defensive line pass rush and the inability to get the passing game going down the field.

Additionally, Joe also has a Mt. Flushmore featuring his worst Bills memories of the entire Buffalo vs Miami rivlalry.  That and much more.
