Buffalo Bills news, notes, discussions, opinions and analysis. 24/7/365 since 4/7/2007.
Welcome back fans of the Buffalo Bills, Star Wars, DIY, and overly complicated projects. If you’re just joining us, the extremely short version is that a friend of mine bought both of us Black Series Star Wars helmets. The goal? We make them look Billsy. As I tend to do, I go overboard. In the […]
The Buffalo Bills and their fans knew that, on paper, the 2026 NFL schedule was going to be a difficult gauntlet to survive, and when the schedule was released Thursday night, we all learned just how daunting the task was going to be for first-year head coach Joe Brady and the Bills. Buffalo is projected […]
The business of creative annual NFL schedule releases is tough. Teams don’t want to fall prey to copying past work from other clubs. That means having to think outside the box, and to do so while avoiding schools of thought that groups for all the other teams are also trying to successfully fish. That’s part […]
No kidding, right? Anyone could have predicted this happening with the new version of Highmark Stadium set to open later this summer just ahead of the Buffalo Bills’ 2026 season. A big reason for the price spike is due to Personal Seat Licenses (PSLs), which have saddled season-ticket bearers with one-time costs beginning at a […]
With the Buffalo Bills 2026 schedule here, it’s time for a very important article — a ranking of the best road trips for Bills fans to take this season. Let’s get right to it. (I’m purposely not including trips to the Patriots, Jets, or Dolphins for obvious reasons. If I had to pick the marquee […]
Now that we know the 2026 Buffalo Bills schedule, it’s time for me to provide you my initial thoughts when I saw this graphic on the team’s social media accounts on Thursday night. Below you’ll find 10 of those thoughts, listed in no particular order of importance. – You could have placed the Bills’ opponents […]
The 2026 regular season schedule has been released for the National Football League. All eyes, especially in Western New York and those who live near Bills Backers’ Bars across the country are looking at the Buffalo Bills Week 1 opponent…the Houston Texans. It’s a team that has given the Bills fits the last couple of […]
For those of you who’ve read and hung out at Buffalo Rumblings long enough, you understand that I’m against giving much in the way of Buffalo Bills game predictions. That’s especially the case when asked to do so during a Five Questions gauntlet in-season. Yet, here I am, writing an admittedly far too early article […]
After plenty of outside speculation and debate bathed in rumors, the Buffalo Bills have finally officially revealed the contents of their 2026 NFL regular-season schedule. As the second-place finisher from the 2025 NFL season, Buffalo gets an especially challenging itinerary to kick off life in the new Highmark Stadium. Below we’ll have all the details […]
The Buffalo Bills used to live in the NFL’s Sunday afternoon shadows. Since 2020, Buffalo has transformed into one of the league’s most watched teams on a national scale. As Josh Allen’s rise turned the Bills into a contender, the television exposure followed right behind it. From Sunday Night Football spotlights to Thursday night dominance, […]
Later today, the NFL will officially release the league schedule for the 2026 season, which means this evening we’ll know the entirety of the Buffalo Bills’ 2026 schedule. But it’s become common practice for the league — and its broadcast partners — to slowly roll out schedule-based content throughout the week ahead of the schedule […]
The Buffalo Bills are set to play a gauntlet of quarterbacks in the 2026 regular season. Nowadays there are much better ways than in the past to determine how difficult a team’s schedule will likely be. Warren Sharp among others intelligently use Vegas’ win totals for the opponents for each team, which is significantly better […]
While the Buffalo Bills’ opponent in Week 1 has not been made official yet, if the most reputable NFL schedule leaker on social media is to be believed, we know how that opponent will be. The Houston Texans. At 1pm ET. NerdingonNFL has become the gold standard in the hyper-niche NFL schedule release leaking game, […]
There’s been some hubbub about the total travel distance the Buffalo Bills will rack up this season to get to games outside Orchard Park (notice I didn’t say “away” games, that’s what we call “a hint”). Now most of the articles about Buffalo traveling close to 20,000 miles this season are comparing it to other […]
As the NFL’s offseason continues, the date when the schedules for all 32 teams are released has become a popular offseason highlight as fans mark their calendars for which home games they’ll attend and plan for the road trips they want to make for the coming season.

The Buffalo Bills used to live in the NFL’s Sunday afternoon shadows. Since 2020, Buffalo has transformed into one of the league’s most watched teams on a national scale. As Josh Allen’s rise turned the Bills into a contender, the television exposure followed right behind it. From Sunday Night Football spotlights to Thursday night dominance, […]
Under Sean McDermott, the run defense was always a distant second priority to the pass defense. While I do vehemently defend the notion that pass defense is more important, things can get out of hand. The 2025 season was when I think many of us felt the run defense needed some attention. The recent addition […]
The NFL Schedule Release became a proper noun about a decade ago, and the league has decided to morph that transformation into a week-long hullabaloo with time and date info on specific games trickling out before the actual release show, in primetime, on Thursday. When the schedule is actually released, it’s always a blast evaluating […]
The Buffalo Bills traded for wide receiver Amari Cooper at the 2024 NFL trade deadline. It feels like forever ago, and in a lot of ways it was. Cooper didn’t play great in Buffalo, but he still had a little gas in the tank. Cooper was out of the NFL in 2025 after retiring from […]
I recently laid out how Brandon Beane has drafted as the Buffalo Bills general manager relative to NFL-wide historical expectations for every single draft pick. The natural follow is to then compare Beane’s results to other perceived top GMs in the NFL, over the same time period. I used 2018 – 2023 in the initial […]
Buffalo Bills have made another post-draft signing, this time it’s on offense — former Lions tight end Shane Zylstra has been added on a one-year contract. On Monday, the team agreed to terms on a one-year deal with former Chiefs edge rusher Mike Danna. The signing’s corresponding move — to keep the Bills roster at […]
Assessing the quality of Brandon Beane’s drafts is a hotly debated topic among Buffalo Bills fans, and one to which I assume they ultimately want a definitive answer. I’ve set out to provide that answer, and it goes far beyond how I personally feel the draft work of the club’s president of football operations and […]
On Monday afternoon, it was officially announced that the Buffalo Bills would host the Detroit Lions on Amazon Prime’s first Thursday Night Football game of the season on September 17. This game will take place during the second week of the 2026 season, as the Bills play their first regular season game at the new […]
The Buffalo Bills have signed OLB/DE Mike Danna, formerly a member of conference rival Kansas City. With the Bills’ coaching change being what it is, a defensive facelift was a pretty predictable outcome for this season. What do the Buffalo Bills see in Danna? Kansas City has won a big game or two during Danna’s […]
