Playing Some Devil's Advocate With The Buffalo Bills

Playing Some Devil's Advocate With The Buffalo Bills

Author: Blue Wire October 30, 2024 Duration: 1:04:26

On this episode of Talking Buffalo, Patrick Moran is joined by Matt Warren of SB Nation for their weekly conversation, this time turning heel a little bit on Buffalo Bills fans and telling them some things to be skeptical of regarding the team despite their glowing 6-2 record.

The heel turn isn't on the level of Seth Rollins turning on the Shield, but the guys decide to take a break from all the positivity talk about the Bills (mostly well deserved) and play Devil's advocate today, focusing today's episode on some things that already have or could ail the Bills as they progress through what's become a most promising season.

Among the things the guys discuss is the Bills playing a relatively weak schedule so far, especially compared to what it was expected to look like back in September. They also talk about how their penchant for racking up penalties is a problem, slow starts in at least half their games so far this season, Curtis Samuel looking like a complete bust right now and not having a lot of good luck on the injury front.

Again, both guys are highly optimistic with the Bills at this point of the season but sometimes you have to take a look at the dangers that may lie ahead. They also talk some AFC as well, including the absolutely stunning revelation that the AFC east race is close to being over before we even reach Halloween and Kansas City just two home wins away from coming to Orchard Park in a few weeks with a 10-0 record.
