Bills vs Ravens Preview, Keys To Winning & Bold Predictions

Bills vs Ravens Preview, Keys To Winning & Bold Predictions

Author: Blue Wire January 16, 2025 Duration: 45:46

On this episode of Talking Buffalo, Patrick Moran brings a full playoff preview of the Buffalo Bills hosting the Baltimore Ravens in the divisional round Sunday in Orchard Park, including keys to a Bills victory, bold predictions for the game and a stab at picking the final score.

With the seasons Josh Allen and Lamar Jackson have had, it almost felt like fate that the two would meet in the postseason. Unfortunately the quarterback that loses is probably going to have some narratives unfairly raised about them, as Patrick explains.

Hopefully for the Bills the rematch goes better than the first meeting back in Week four when the Ravens pounded Buffalo in prime time, 35-10. Patrick offers plenty of perspective looking back at the game, from the Bills injuries to as assortment of other things that went wrong.

From there it's some talk about both teams before settling into Buffalo's biggest keys to victory, which unquestionably revolve around the Bills defensive tackle tandem of Ed Oliver and DaQuan Jones. Plus, can the Bills win this game if Allen doesn't have the better day than Jackson?

Bold predictions include a big day for a pair of Buffalo boundary receivers, a defensive star player performing like one and possibly the most juiciest bold prediction we've had on the show the entire year. That plus a gutsy final score prediction and much more.

Major props to Talking Buffalo sponsor, Sonny Red’s at 1841 Abbott Road in Lackawanna, just minutes from Highmark Stadium. We consider them THE most underrated spot for wings, pizza and other great food in Western New York plus it’s a great place to drink and have a great time.
