The Bills have overlooked an obvious option in the passing game
The Buffalo Bills are among the NFL’s best teams, even in what may be considered a down season. That’s life with Josh Allen as the franchise quarterback.

Mahomes’ legs may be key to Chiefs’ success in 2025
I’m not going to take credit for the idea on this article, but I can’t recall exactly where I saw it mentioned that Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes has been running a lot this year. I decided that, ahead of the Buffalo Bills’ game with the Chiefs, it might be wise to see if […]
