Bruce Nolan Talks Bills Defensive Plan of Attack

Bruce Nolan Talks Bills Defensive Plan of Attack

Author: Blue Wire March 4, 2025 Duration: 54:57

On this episode of Talking Buffalo, Patrick Moran is joined by popular Buffalo Bills content creator Bruce Nolan (The Bruce Exclusive) for a discussion on what the Bills defensive plan of attack may be in the coming days and weeks as we're less than a week away from free agency.

Originally this was slated to be the fifth annual Podcaster's Roundtable, which included Bruce in addition to Joe Marino and Greg Tompsett. However, a personal matter came up involving one of the other guests so that's being reschedule and Bruce was kind enough to come on solo and talk about a Bills unit that could see some big changes upcoming soon.

With the offense potentially close to being "run it back" territory from last year with the exception of perhaps another receiver, the defense could see one or more major shakeups very soon. Bruce has a ton of insight and opinions on what some of those may be, including his expectations for a potential Myles Garret trade that everyone's talking about and most are hoping for.

That and plenty more. Huge thanks to Bruce for coming on solo, switching up the format on the fly and helping out in a pinch!

That and plenty more. Make sure to follow/subscribe to The Bruce Exclusive and give Bruce a follow on Twitter @BruceExclusive.

Major props to Talking Buffalo sponsor, Sonny Red’sat 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.
