Buffalo Bills Biggest Week 13 Takeaways

Buffalo Bills Biggest Week 13 Takeaways

Author: Blue Wire December 3, 2024 Duration: 50:16

On this episode of Talking Buffalo, Patrick Moran discusses some of his biggest Week 13 takeaways for the Buffalo Bills on the hells of their lopsided 35-10 shellacking of San Francisco this past snowy Sunday night to improve to 10-2 on the season.

The comfort of being home and knowing a raucous crowd will be behind you has always given the Bills a home field advantage late in the season and into the playoffs. However, Patrick discusses how the style of play and roster makeup for previous editions of the Bills in recent years didn't feel like they were suited to play their best in wintery Western New York. That's no longer the case as this year's team has underwent a huge identity shift on offense and the result is a (much) more physical brand of football that allows them to beat teams in several ways.

While continuing to state he doesn't much care about the MVP race, Patrick admits it's at the point where he's at a loss for words if there's anyone out there who doesn't think Josh Allen is the league's most valuable player right now. This game is discussed as well as a shift in Josh's mental approach has him playing perhaps the best of his entire career.

Other takeaways discussed is the emergence of Taylor Rapp as a weapon, an early game penalty on San Francisco that turned the tide of the game more than people think, a dominant performance from the offensive line, who was responsible for allowing two long Deebo Samuel kickoff return, one area of the team that's still concerning and 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.
