DeWayne Carter emerging as one of NFL’s better run-stopping DTs
The DeWayne Carter emergence is so surprising, I can’t help myself but to write about the third-year pro again ahead of the Buffalo Bills matchup with the New England Patriots in Week 4. On September 22, I wrote about Carter making the most of his opportunity in the first two contests of the season. Then, […]
Buffalo Bills Record Book Watch: Josh Allen one TD from history
Three weeks into the season, the Buffalo Bills’ record book is already getting a little crowded. Josh Allen keeps running his way past some of the biggest names in NFL history. Greg Rousseau has apparently decided two sacks per game is a perfectly reasonable pace. And James Cook took one look at the absurd number we gave him in […]
Pittsburgh Steelers at Cleveland Browns, Week 4 ‘TNF’ fan discussion
Thursday Night Football is back, Rumblers! While there’s no Buffalo Bills game until Sunday, there is a hard-nosed AFC North divisional matchup to enjoy this evening. We’ve finally hit October on the world’s most popular calendar, and, with that, the hitting gets all the more intense the deeper into fall we go. Tonight, the Cleveland […]
Bills Thursday injury report adds new name
Today, there was plenty of good news for the Buffalo Bills. Everyone except Christian Benford was back to practice. But even better than that, every one of those players with the exception of one was out of the non-contact jersey today. Here’s what changed since yesterday: Here’s what didn’t change: Here’s what all that most likely means: Christian Benford won’t suit up on […]
Buffalo Bills vs. Patriots: Josh Allen rivalry history
There are a lot of places we could set the dial on the Time Capsule this week. The Buffalo Bills and New England Patriots have been sharing the AFC East for decades, leaving us with more than enough games, moments, and grudges to fill this space several times over. New England holds an 80-52-1 advantage […]
Greg Rousseau named AFC Defensive Player of the Month after historic September for the Bills
The NFL calendar has officially flipped to October, but Greg Rousseau has one more piece of business to collect from September. Rousseau has been named AFC Defensive Player of the Month, the first monthly award of his NFL career and the first for a Buffalo Bills defensive player since Jordan Poyer earned the honor in […]
Buffalo Bills vs. New England Patriots; Movable object vs. stoppable force
After allowing 31 points in their first two games, the Buffalo Bills finally had a respectable outing on defense against the Los Angeles Chargers by allowing 6.9 points less than the league average of 22.9. That said, questions still abound regarding the Bills’ D because, well… it’s very well possible the Chargers just. kinda. suck. […]
Our first month with an app broke our commenting records
A month ago we announced the release of our new app, which you can find here or by searching SB Nation in your neighborhood app store. Quite a few of you have downloaded it over the past month and have been using it. The goal with this app was to make it easier to join […]
Buffalo Bills were tipping point in Drake Maye’s deterioration
Did the Buffalo Bills break Drake Maye last season? Of course I’m referencing after halftime in the second meeting between the Bills and Patriots in 2025, when Buffalo erased a 24-7 deficit to win 35-31 in Foxboro. Maye has been almost an entirely different quarterback after emerging from the locker room in that contest. In […]
NFL power rankings: Bills are No. 1, but nobody knows what to make of the Patriots
Three weeks into the 2026 NFL season, there seems to be a growing consensus about the Buffalo Bills. The New England Patriots? Not so much. With Week 3 officially in the books, I compared the latest NFL power rankings from ESPN, NFL. com, CBS Sports, USA Today and Sports Illustrated. The results couldn’t paint much […]
Buffalo Bills broadcast map for Week 4 game against New England Patriots
For the second week in a row, the Buffalo Bills will host a 1pm game in the new Highmark Stadium, and now we know a large portion of the country will see Joe Brady’s club against the New England Patriots on Sunday afternoon in the early window on CBS. Here’s the Week 4 early-window coverage […]
Bills vs. Patriots Week 4 injury report: Josh Allen clear
Josh Allen. Christian Benford. DJ Moore. Even Deone Walker needed some additional taping. Sunday gave us plenty of reasons to worry about the next play, the next game, and the next month. But the Buffalo Bills walked — although some definitely limped — off the field with what might be only one long-term casualty. Since then, we’ve been anxiously waiting for the […]
Jessica Pegula hints at wanting to help with Buffalo Bills ownership
Right now Jessica Pegula is one of the best tennis players in the world — could acting owner of the Buffalo Bills be in her future? Since her parents, Terry and Kim Pegula, bought the team in 2014, Jessica has climbed the tennis world rankings all the way to No. 3 — which is her […]
Will the Buffalo Bills defeat the New England Patriots in Week 4?
Welcome to SB Nation Reacts, a survey of fans across the NFL. Throughout the year we ask questions of the most plugged-in Bills fans and fans across the country. The Buffalo Bills are off to a hot start under the direction of new head coach Joe Brady. At 3-0 and in first place in the […]
Update on Marvin Harrison Jr. trade rumor from NFL insider
Last week here at Rumblings, we wrote two articles on the potential of a Marvin Harrison Jr. trade for the Buffalo Bills, and now it’s time for an update. NFL insider Jeremy Fowler wrote the following in his Week 4 intel article at ESPN.com “Teams are continuing to watch the Marvin Harrison Jr. situation closely, […]
Buffalo Bills have near historically bad day with penalties
The Buffalo Bills were heavily favored to beat the Los Angeles Chargers and while they did win, it was a much bigger ordeal than anyone thought it would be. The five turnovers were a pretty big deal, but the chatter on penalties has been nearly as loud this week. That’s 100% valid too with the […]
Studying how much more aggressive the NFL and Buffalo Bills have gotten in end-of-half scenarios
The Buffalo Bills have scored two touchdowns in the final two minutes through three games to begin their 2026 season, and of course, for the vast majority of the Josh Allen era, the team has embraced aggression in the final few minutes before halftime. And in Week 3, we saw the Ravens make a game-winning […]
Bills news: Assessing Buffalo’s 3-0 start
The Buffalo Bills are off to a 3-0 start for the fifth time in the last eight seasons, but following a pair of dominant offensive performances that fueled Buffalo to victory in the first two weeks, it was Greg Rousseau, Ed Oliver, C.J. Gardner-Johnson and the defense’s turn to step up and make plays as […]
Buffalo Bills set to face another banged-up offensive line
For the fourth time in as many weeks to begin the 2026 NFL season, the Buffalo Bills defensive line will face an opponent with an injury-plagued offensive line. The Patriots announced on Tuesday that they’ve placed veteran right guard Greg Van Roten — who played for the Bills in 2022 — on IR with a […]
Buffalo Bills release Phidarian Mathis, but expected to retain him
Earlier today, I wrote an article giving my prediction on what I believed the Buffalo Bills would do as a corresponding move to veteran defensive tackle Phidarian Mathis being activated to the 53-man roster after his suspension — turns out no corresponding move was needed. Joe Buscaglia of The Athletic reported the following regarding the […]
Bills Week 3 game balls: Defense rescues a five-turnover afternoon against the Chargers
The Buffalo Bills are 3-0 after beating the Los Angeles Chargers 24-16, but this was hardly the kind of win that sends everyone home feeling comfortable. Buffalo turned the ball over five times, while heading into the game with zero turnovers, and fell behind 10-0. The Bills did not take their first lead until the […]
What Buffalo Bills snap counts against the Chargers reveal about their Week 3 win
Buffalo’s line stayed intact but had a difficult afternoon, while James Cook and the defense helped the Bills overcome five turnovers. The Buffalo Bills are 3-0, although Sunday’s 24-16 win over the Los Angeles Chargers did not come easily. Buffalo fell behind 10-0, turned the ball over five times and needed its defense to keep […]
One of the controversial roughing the passer flags this weekend had it wrong
I usually only write one penalty thing per week and keep an eye out for that too; but this week the officials’ calls for roughing the passer were a tad bit controversial. It didn’t feel right for the resident penalty nerd to not weigh in, especially with one of the controversial calls being called on […]
Strong Buffalo Bills defense; or weak Los Angeles Chargers offense?
The Buffalo Bills worked like heck to give the game away against the Los Angeles Chargers. There were ten penalties that included both a negated touchdown and a negated turnover. Josh Allen had a passer rating of 54.0. And who could forget the five turnovers? Somehow, the Chargers were almost entirely unable to translate those […]
Buffalo Bills HC Joe Brady wants RB Ray Davis more involved on offense
During Monday’s session at the podium with members of the media, Buffalo Bills head coach Joe Brady took a moment to reflect on running back Ray Davis, and his lack of opportunities in the team’s current offense. Against the Los Angeles Chargers in Week 3, Davis was in for five plays (8%) on offense, while […]
