The 2025 Buffalo Bills season has been written, but the book is incomplete. Before we cast our full attention toward the 2026 season, let’s take one last glance back over our shoulder for our annual look at the Plays That Defined the prior campaign. For any newcomers, first and foremost; Welcome! When it comes to […]
One of the most distinct themes from the Buffalo Bills 2025 season was the regularly striking difference in the club’s defense in the first half of games compared to the second half of games. The Bills were simultaneously disappointing out of the gates in contests and outrageously good at making second-half adjustments in the locker […]
The Buffalo Bills are wrapping up their Organized Team Activities later this week, and during Tuesday’s session with the media, new offensive coordinator Pete Carmichael reflected on how he is adjusting to his new role. Carmichael is reunited in Buffalo with first-year Bills head coach Joe Brady, who worked with Carmichael when the two were […]
This is a post from The Feed, and it’s represents a fantastic jumping off point to discussion appropriate for early June.

How do you see these […]
The Buffalo Bills have mostly gone about business quietly now into the third week of their 2026 Organized Team Activities program, however one key situation opened some eyes during Tuesday’s session. Offensive tackle Travis Clayton was seen working with the defensive line group. Sal Capaccio, Bills reporter with WGR 550 shared a post showing Clayton […]
Earlier today, I compared the draft-pick cost for the Bills and Patriots to acquire DJ Moore and A.J. Brown respectively via trades this offseason. Now, I’ll be stacking Brown and Moore against each other as receivers on the field. In the draft-pick piece, I labeled Moore as “a half-tier below” Brown for the entirety of […]
The Buffalo Bills fired head coach Sean McDermott at the conclusion of the 2025 NFL season. Perhaps that’s something you heard. We may have even discussed it a bit here at Buffalo Rumblings. With McDermott’s firing came changes, not least of which involve the defense. Gone is McDermott’s nickel-base, even-front defense. In is defensive coordinator […]
A.J. Brown being sent to the Patriots makes two AFC East teams that traded for veteran receivers this offseason — joining the Buffalo Bills acquiring DJ Moore in March, of course. Because of that, these two wideouts will be compared for a while now, especially as the Bills and Patriots divisional rival rages on with […]

The second of two blockbuster NFL trades was finalized on Monday, June 1 when the Philadelphia Eagles agreed to parameters that sends wide receiver A.J. Brown to the New England Patriots. ESPN’s Adam Schefter revealed that the Eagles sent Brown to the Patriots for a return of “a 2028 first-round pick and a 2027 fifth-round […]
Spoiler alert: Yes, the Buffalo Bills missed the boat on Myles Garrett. However, whether or not they had the right luggage to pack for the Cleveland Browns near-annual trip aboard destination nowhere is uncertain. Simply put is the fact that acquiring Garrett is a massive undertaking. Earlier this offseason, Matt Warren wrote about the Browns’ […]
To remind everyone there is no offseason in the NFL — the Cleveland Browns agreed to trade Myles Garrett to the Los Angeles Rams on June 1, the start of what is supposed to be the sleepiest month on the league’s calendar. ESPN’s Adam Schefter first reported the blockbuster deal that includes Rams budding star […]
The Buffalo Bills have made a transaction on June 1 — it’s the signing of wide receiver Mac Dalena. He entered the NFL as a Kansas City Chiefs undrafted free agent signing in 2025 after a collegiate career at Fresno State. He spent time on the Seattle Seahawks practice squad a season ago and was […]
The Buffalo Bills are changing defensive systems for the first time in a long time this season. Longtime head coach Sean McDermott is out, and his defensive scheme is gone with it. New defensive coordinator Jim Leonhard is in, and he is poised to run a far different scheme than his predecessor. Whereas McDermott ran […]
Earlier today, Bruce Nolan wrote a piece that explained whether he believed the Buffalo Bills are better now than they were one year ago today. You should read it. It’s good. And thought-provoking. And it certainly provoked a thought with me — what was the “best” Bills team in the Sean McDermott era? This can […]
I have never before heard an NFL injury — or ailment of any kind in any walk of life — be referred to as an “oops, oops” before that description was used by Buffalo Bills defensive tackle Ed Oliver during OTAs. Per Thigh Doctor on Twitter, “Oliver said a recent “oops, oops” was the reason […]
Every fanbase thinks their team is better now than it was last year at this time. Their favorite team (likely) added draft picks. They (likely) added free agents. Those people they lost to free agency? They were losers anyway. They certainly weren’t worth the contracts they signed elsewhere. If a player got traded away, it’s […]
Organized Team Activities are a great opportunity for new and returning members of the Buffalo Bills to make a great impression on new head coach Joe Brady and the rest of Buffalo’s coaching staff, and they’re also the perfect time for new defensive coordinator Jim Leonhard to gain familiarity with the players he’ll be deploying […]
Back in 2023, thousands of Buffalo Bills fans made the journey to London to see their club take on the Jacksonville Jaguars. While this was the trip of a lifetime for many (myself included), a disappointing victory and some brutal injuries left a sour taste with Bills Mafia. Many fans are understandably not a fan […]
Terrance Gray has now interviewed for three GM jobs outside of the Buffalo Bills organization but will remain with the team after his most recent two-interview session with the Minnesota Vikings for their GM job. Tom Pelissero reported the Vikings are hiring Seahawks assistant GM Nolan Teasley for GM gig in Minnesota. Had Gray been […]
It’s not as if the Buffalo Bills have done everything in their power to distance themselves from the Sean McDermott era. Actually, they’ve done quite the contrary. Naturally, as a rare internal promotion hire, Joe Brady has regularly praised the culture turnaround and perennial success McDermott accomplished as Buffalo’s head coach from 2017 to 2025. […]
Last week, I examined the running backs the Buffalo Bills defense will face this upcoming season. Now we are switch to the wide receivers. The Bills are scheduled to see a collection of great receivers, which means big tests for the likes of veteran Christian Benford and Maxwell Hairston. Buffalo will square off against five […]
As I was writing my post-draft profile on Buffalo Bills rookie DT Zane Durant — a comparison struck me. He’s a lot like former Denver Broncos and now Tennessee Titans defensive lineman John Franklin-Myers. Once it dawned on me, I added mentioned of the epiphany to the bottom of that article, which finished with the […]
The Buffalo Bills have been able to find offensive line talent in multiple different ways during general manager Brandon Beane’s tenure with the club. Whether it’s drafting someone in the second round, signing a veteran free agent, or scouring for undrafted rookie free agents at the conclusion of a given year’s draft, Beane realizes that […]
The Buffalo Bills are in the midst of conducting their Organized Team Activities as the team prepares for a pivotal 2026 season.
