Buffalo Bills off to an elite pace disrupting quarterbacks
Just to start off a candid note, nothing you’re about to read suggests that the Buffalo Bills’ defense doesn’t have room for improvement. It very obviously does, allowing 31 points in both of their first games. Now Week 1 is known for “lying” about a team’s identity, and Thursday Night Football is similarly wonky, but […]
Derwin James provides injury update before game against Buffalo Bills
The Los Angeles Chargers have started 0-2 after consecutive 26-14 losses to the Arizona Cardinals and Las Vegas Raiders, and in Week 2, their superstar safety Derwin James injured his hand. The six-time All-Pro updated his injury on Monday as the club begins preparations for the cross-country trip to take on the Buffalo Bills in […]
Buffalo Bills Week 2 game balls following 41-31 win over Detroit
The Buffalo Bills are 2-0 after defeating the Detroit Lions 41-31 in the inaugural regular-season game at the new Highmark Stadium. Buffalo’s offense delivered 41 points against Detroit, led by another nearly unstoppable performance from Josh Allen. James Cook controlled the game on the ground, while Greg Rousseau continued his dominant start to the season […]
Buffalo Bills can’t forget about this common tendency in NFL before Chargers game
The Buffalo Bills and Los Angeles Chargers will enter this Week 3 contested headed in diametrically opposed directions, which can often spawn a rather silly assumption. That we are sure of something in the NFL, especially in September. Now, should the Bills have confidence going into this game? Yes. Plenty of it. And, I’ll never […]
Buffalo Bills pass rush has improved in one overlooked but key area
Despite clearly not playing particularly well through two weeks, there is one vital area in which the Buffalo Bills defense has improved from years past. Converting pressures to sacks. Through the vast majority of the Sean McDermott era, the Bills pass-rush unit was rarely one of the league’s better units actually sacking the quarterback. We […]
What Buffalo Bills’ snap counts against Detroit Lions reveal
The Buffalo Bills offense spent plenty of time on the field during their 41-31 victory over the Detroit Lions in Week 2. Buffalo ran 74 offensive plays, compared with just 58 in its season-opening win over the Houston Texans. The Bills possessed the ball for 33:45, accumulated 34 first downs and produced touchdowns on six […]
Buffalo Bills at forefront of efficiency-boosting personnel grouping movement through two games
We already suspected the Buffalo Bills loved their tight end group, but when they kept four tight ends and five receivers on their initial 53-man roster after the preseason, we should have realized they planned on frequently using those bigger bodies this season. And it hasn’t just been the most common double tight-end look — […]
DJ Moore, Ed Oliver avoided serious injuries on Thursday night in Week 2
The Buffalo Bills got a huge scare in the first half of their 41-31 Thursday Night Football victory over the Lions in Week 2, when DJ Moore stayed down after diving for a throw from Josh Allen in the end zone. A few hours before that, Ed Oliver was shockingly on the inactive list after […]
Bills news: What we learned about Buffalo after win over Lions
Josh Allen threw for three touchdown passes and ran for two more scores as the Buffalo Bills opened the new Highmark Stadium by dismantling the Detroit Lions, 41-31 on Thursday Night Football. Allen has accounted for nine total touchdowns for a Bills offense that has scored 77 points through the first two weeks of the […]
Buffalo Bills records and milestones from Week 2 win over Detroit Lions
It didn’t take long for the Bills to start making history in their new home. The Buffalo Bills christened the new Highmark Stadium with a 41-31 win over the Detroit Lions on Thursday night, moving to 2-0 in the process. Josh Allen accounted for five touchdowns, James Cook ran for 139 yards, and Buffalo scored touchdowns on five of its […]
First projection at a Dalton Kincaid extension with Buffalo Bills
Is it too early to start envisioning what a second contract for Dalton Kincaid could look like? Sure. Maybe a little bit. While he is in the fourth year of his rookie deal with the Buffalo Bills, and the club has already picked up his fifth-year option for 2027, we know Brandon Beane’s history of […]
Let’s workshop some nicknames for Deone Walker
Buffalo Bills defensive tackle Deone Walker has gone bananas to begin his second season in the NFL. The former fourth-round pick has been borderline unblockable in the first two games of the season, and his huge splash plays have come on monumentally impressive wins. He has a ridiculous nine quarterback pressures on 59 pass-rush snaps […]
Buffalo Bills Week 2 rooting interests around the NFL
Rooting interests are easy when it comes to the AFC East: Buffalo wins, everyone else loses. Done. Unfortunately, the rest of the NFL schedule requires a little more thought — and, this week, at least one rooting interest that might make Bills Mafia feel a little dirty. Buffalo gets the week started early, hosting the Detroit Lions […]

DJ Moore injury: Bills WR avoids serious shoulder injury
Buffalo Bills wide receiver DJ Moore headed to the locker room with a shoulder injury Thursday night. He dove for a pass in the back of the end zone and immediately grabbed at the area. On Friday morning, Adam Schefter reported Moore isn’t expected to miss much if any time. That is a big sigh […]
Keon Coleman steps up for Bills following DJ Moore injury
Earlier this year, there was a lot of talk about the future of Buffalo Bills wide receiver Keon Coleman. He was suspended a few times in 2025 for being late to team meetings, and even Bills owner Terry Pegula had less than flattering things to say about him. But new head coach Joe Brady and […]
Buffalo Bills OLB Greg Rousseau hunting QBs at a HOF pace
There was a time when Buffalo Bills edge rusher Greg Rousseau was able to hide a bit in the shadows of NFL’s trenches as a complete and steady 4-3 defensive end who often went about his business without a ton of outside fan fare. Drafted by the Bills 30th overall in the 2021 NFL Draft, […]

James Cook passes Joe Cribbs on Buffalo Bills’ all-time rushing list
James Cook just keeps climbing. The Buffalo Bills running back entered Thursday night’s game against the Detroit Lions needing 130 rushing yards to pass Joe Cribbs and move into fifth place on the franchise’s all-time rushing list. He got there in the fourth quarter. Cook’s 22-yard run that set up his one-yard touchdown rush a play later pushed him past Cribbs’ 4,445 career rushing yards in a Bills uniform […]
Joe Brady makes Buffalo Bills HC history with franchise’s first 2-0 start
Joe Brady has only been the head coach of the Buffalo Bills for two games, but apparently that was long enough to make a little franchise history. With Buffalo’s 41-31 win over the Detroit Lions on Thursday night, Brady became the first head coach in Bills history to begin his Buffalo career 2-0. And there have been plenty of chances. […]

The Buffalo Bills earned a big win tonight, putting up 21 points early in the game before outlasting the Detroit Lions in a 41-31 victory.

Buffalo Bills vs. Detroit Lions, NFL Week 2 ‘TNF’ fan discussion
Welcome to primetime, Highmark Stadium! To get Week 2 of NFL action underway, the Buffalo Bills host the Detroit Lions for the franchise’s first regular-season game at the new Highmark Stadium.

Bills vs Lions: Ed Oliver a surprise inactive alongside Ty Johnson
The Buffalo Bills open their brand-new stadium for real tonight, taking on the Detroit Lions in what should be an entertaining contest. Given the Bills’ Detroit roots — team founder and NFL Hall of Famer Ralph Wilson Jr. grew up in Detroit, and he maintained business operations in Michigan throughout his life—this is a fitting […]
