  • Several Reasons To Like Buffalo Over Ravens In Playoff Rematch
    Jan 15 2025
    On this episode of Talking Buffalo, Patrick Moran is joined by Matt Warren of SB Nation to discuss among other things several reasons to like the Buffalo Bills in a playoff rematch over the Baltimore Ravens this coming Sunday, despite a growing sentiment that the Bills are actually the underdogs going in. On Sunday night's opening betting line the Bills were a 1.5 favorite but less than 24 hours later the Ravens were favored in Vegas by the same margin. There's plenty of reasons for gamblers, fans and media like to give the edge to Baltimore----they're red hot, have six All-Pros on their roster including the now MVP betting favorite in Lamar Jackson, a stud running back and a defense that's been the best in the NFL over the second half of the season. Oh, there's also the matter that Baltimore crushed Buffalo at home all the way back in Week four of the regular season, 35-10. Still, there's also plenty of reasons to like Buffalo's chances in this rematch and the guys spend a big chunk of the show talking about them. Among them is a lot of key players back for Buffalo that didn't play the Ravens earlier this season, Josh Allen taking his game to another level, literally in the playoffs, the potential to sustain drives and keep Baltimore off the field, and a potentially impactful injury to the Ravens if 1,000-yard wide receiver Zay Flowers (knee) can't make it back. There's other factors discussed too, including the Bills being experts at harnessing at what they deem disrespect into motivation, Jackson having a spotty playoff history and perhaps most importantly, the game being in Orchard Park instead of Baltimore this time around. Plus, are the Ravens players quietly as cocky about this game as most their fans? That, other things to like about Sunday, thoughts on the Kansas City/Houston game and much more. Major props to Talking Buffalo sponsor, Sonny Red’s at 1841 Abbott Road in Lackawanna, just minutes from Highmark Stadium. We consider them THE most underrated spot for wings, pizza and other great food in Western New York plus it’s a great place to drink and have a great time. ♦♦♦♦♦ Follow Patrick Moran/Talking Buffalo Podcast Substack: Patrick Moran’s Substack Twitter: @PatrickMoranTB Blue Sky: @PatrickMoranTB.bsky.social Instagram: @PatrickMoranTB Facebook: Talking Buffalo Podcast Learn more about your ad choices.

  • Buffalo Bills Biggest Wild Card Round Takeaways
    Jan 14 2025
    On this episode of Talking Buffalo, Patrick Moran goes over his biggest Buffalo Bills wildcard round takeaways on the heels of Buffalo's convincing win over Denver and how at least some of them my relate to their next opponent, Baltimore in the divisional round. The Bills gave up a big play for a touchdown to Denver on the opening series and then shut the door on them for the rest of the game. Patrick has thoughts on Matt Milano having by far his best game of the season and Von Miller, even without registering the sack turning back the clock with some extremely impressive pass rush reps. Offensively the game plan was obvious from the get go and Patrick's got thoughts on the complete transformation James Cook has made since entering the NFL primarily as a pass catching threat out of the backfield. The Bills running game coupled with the explosive plays that came in the air in the second half is the recipe for making this a long playoff run. They were plenty of other things to like and some not so much, including Taylor Rapp struggling, another special teams blunder and a red zone offense that while not costly against Denver, didn't execute well. Of course, it's all about Baltimore going forward and Patrick's got preliminary thoughts on that matchup and much more.

  • Bills Systematically Destroy Denver (Live Reactions)
    Jan 13 2025
    On this episode of Talking Buffalo, Patrick Moran is joined by Joe From Queens shortly after the Buffalo Bills systematically destroyed the Denver Broncos, 31-7 to win their AFC Wildcard game and set up what's expected to an epic clash with Baltimore next week. Joe joins from Florida, where he's staying before a family vacation to Mexico. They talk about a Bills team that overcame a huge play from the Broncos on the first series of the game to methodically pound Denver in submission, just completely dominating in nearly every facet of the game. Buffalo put up 471 yards of offense while possessing the ball for over 41 minutes while allowing Denver just 224 yards of offense, with 43 of that coming on a Bo Nix touchdown pass to Troy Franklin on the fifth play of the game. The guys talk about a Bills team that refused to get panicked under any circumstance and stuck to a running game that the Broncos couldn't stop. They also discuss Josh Allen having another MVP caliber performance and getting several pass catchers involved. Of course even a blowout there's a few plays that really shape a football game and the guys discuss a few of them, including the Ty Johnson miraculous catch on fourth down to take a 21-7 and Curtis Samuel's big 55 yard catch and run for a score to put the game away. They go over all the highlights and a few of the lowlights as well and quickly turn their attention to Baltimore. Get ready for a crazy week! Follow Joe on Blue Sky @BuffaloWins.bluesky.social.
