    ESPN Can't Make Up Their Minds About The Bills

    On this episode of Talking Buffalo, Patrick Moran is joined by Matt Warren of SB Nation and Buffalo Rumblings to break down the latest ESPN rankings surrounding the Buffalo Bills and debate whether the national media truly knows what to make of this roster heading into training camp. The guys discuss ESPN ranking the Bills as having the 4th-best projected starting lineup in the NFL despite previously placing Buffalo near the bottom of the league in skill position talent. Patrick and Matt debate whether Josh Allen alone elevates the roster or if Buffalo is still being underrated nationally. They also dive into recent NFL positional rankings, including James Cook landing as the league’s 7th-best running back according to NFL executives, coaches, and scouts. Plus, Christian Benford being left completely off ESPN’s top cornerback rankings sparks frustration and a deeper conversation about underrated Bills players. Other major topics include: Why Buffalo’s linebacker room could be the team’s biggest weakness entering 2026 Potential breakout candidates like Jackson Hawes and Javon Solomon Whether Keon Coleman benefits from Joe Brady replacing Sean McDermott How dangerous the New England Patriots may actually be this season Bills training camp storylines and controversy surrounding the new stadium practice access Key Takeaways James Cook continues earning league-wide respect after finishing as the NFL’s leading rusher. Christian Benford may be one of the NFL’s most underrated players despite strong production. Buffalo’s defense remains filled with question marks, especially at linebacker and safety. Joe Brady’s leadership could unlock bigger roles for players like Keon Coleman and James Cook. The Patriots may be a much bigger AFC East threat than many Bills fans expect.

    It's Argue For Sake Of Arguing Time With Buffalo Sports

    The summer sports lull is officially here, and Buffalo Bills fans know exactly what that means — arguing for the sake of arguing. On this episode of Talking Buffalo, Patrick Moran dives into the “dog days” of the Buffalo sports calendar, tackling everything from the new Highmark Stadium practice controversy to the never-ending debates surrounding Bills and Sabres offseason storylines. Patrick also gives major props to Elijah Kimble after the elite Western New York running back committed to Syracuse University, discussing why Kimble could become one of the most impactful local football players in years. Plus, there’s another edition of Patrick’s Western New York chicken finger reviews — this time featuring Strikers Bowling Alley & Restaurant. Key Takeaways The Buffalo sports offseason often leads fans into “arguing for the sake of arguing.” Debate continues over PSL holders getting priority access to the Bills’ Blue & Red Scrimmage at the new stadium. The Bills responded to fan backlash by adding an additional open practice in August. Elijah Kimble’s commitment to Syracuse is a massive win for both the program and Western New York football. Patrick reviews Strikers’ chicken fingers and discusses why finding elite fingers in WNY may be harder than expected. Today’s episode is brought to you by the law offices of William Mattar.

    Shade For Bills Skilled Position Players

    On this episode of Talking Buffalo, Patrick Moran is joined by Matt Warren from SB Nation to discuss several Buffalo Bills and football topics, including some serious shade being thrown to the Bills skilled position players in a recent ESPN article. Patrick and Matt dive into a fascinating feature from The Athletic on new Bills safety C. J. Gardner-Johnson, discussing whether he’ll become one of Buffalo’s biggest difference-makers or a potential locker room headache. The guys also debate ESPN’s controversial ranking that placed the Bills’ offensive skill-position group near the bottom of the NFL despite strong production from James Cook, Dalton Kincaid and Khalil Shakir. Other topics include: The Bills’ new stadium Wall of Fame decisions Whether O. J. Simpson should be honored A potential extension for O'Cyrus Torrence Players who may struggle in Jim Leonard’s defensive system Why youth sports memories matter more than many career accomplishments Key Takeaways C.J. Gardner-Johnson could become either a major defensive catalyst or a volatile locker-room presence. ESPN ranking Buffalo’s skill-position players 29th feels overly harsh given the production from James Cook and the Bills tight ends. The Bills’ Wall of Fame changes — especially excluding O.J. Simpson — sparked an interesting debate about separating legacy from personal conduct. Extending O’Cyrus Torrence may force Buffalo to eventually move on from other expensive offensive linemen. Training camp roster battles along the defensive line could become one of the biggest storylines of the summer. Today’s episode is brought to you by the law offices of William Mattar.

    Six Bills Who May Be Getting Slept On

    Patrick Moran dives into six Buffalo Bills players he believes are being seriously overlooked heading into the 2026 NFL season. From breakout candidates to underrated veterans, Patrick explains why several key contributors could end up playing massive roles for Buffalo this year.  Key Takeaways Dalton Kincaid may be primed for a breakout season if he can stay healthy, with Patrick arguing he’s far more impactful than national rankings suggest. Dorian Williams could thrive in Buffalo’s new defensive scheme and may surprise fans expecting a rookie linebacker takeover. Deone Walker has the potential to become a true NFL star and one of the Bills’ most impactful defensive players. Khalil Shakir could benefit greatly from a more aggressive passing attack and less defensive attention thanks to DJ Moore. Bradley Chubb might end up being Buffalo’s most important front-seven addition despite not generating major offseason buzz. Today’s episode is brought to you by the law offices of William Mattar.
