Fan Friday: Will Bills End Up Better On Paper?

Fan Friday: Will Bills End Up Better On Paper?

Author: Blue Wire March 22, 2024 Duration: 47:53

On this Fan Friday episode of Talking Buffalo, Patrick Moran responds to several questions and takes from fans of the show primarily focused on the Buffalo Bills, including an early examination on if this team is going to end up as good or better on paper than last season.

The Bills have suffered some tough losses since last season ended, including a handful of players well known around the league like Mitch Morse, Micah Hyde, Jordan Poyer and Tre White. It's led to a lot of people, especially nationally concluding the Bills are no long as good and in some cases have even said their Super Bowl window is closing if not closed. Patrick takes a comment and elaborates on it to show that's not actually true, going as far as to say they've upgraded the safety and wide receiver positions, with defensive tackle depth simply being addition by subtraction.

Patrick also responds to questions and statements about defensive tackle being a first-round lock, if the Bills can afford to wait until pick No. 60 to get their wide receiver and if Khalil Shakir deserves a bigger role in the offense based on how he finished last season.

There's also a question on if Buffalo Sabres coach Don Granato should keep his job, Wrestlemania 40 bold predictions and much more.
