Buffalo Bills at Cleveland Browns, NFL Preseason Week 2 fan discussion
The Buffalo Bills are on the other end of Lake Erie this weekend, set to meet the Cleveland Browns for Week 2 of the 2026 NFL preseason. A week ago now, Buffalo smacked the Carolina Panthers 29-14 in the team’s preseason debut at the new Highmark Stadium. This weekend? They’re due west for a classic […]
Bills news: Previewing Bills vs. Browns
The Buffalo Bills have spent a good portion of the week in Cleveland, taking part in a joint practice with the Browns on Thursday before the two teams face off in a Week 2 preseason game. While it is not know how much playing time starters like Josh Allen, James Cook, Greg Rousseau, and Christian […]
Bills vs. Browns: Preseason game No. 2 gets questions answered
The second preseason game is the tipping point of the summer for NFL teams. It’s when the fun, out-of-nowhere training camp stories, underdog-starring late July novelties that refuel fans for football season, either vanish into thin air or mature into serious narratives for the regular season and beyond. Will the fan-favorite journeyman actually work his […]

Bills sign Greg Gaines to veteran salary benefit contract, but what does that mean?
The Buffalo Bills added some veteran experience to their defensive line this week, signing defensive tackle Greg Gaines to a one-year contract ahead of their second preseason game. Gaines joins Buffalo as an experienced interior defensive lineman entering his eighth NFL season. The 6-foot-1, 312-pound defensive tackle was originally selected by the Los Angeles Rams […]
Pick the play that defines Bills’ Wild Card playoff win over Jaguars
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 […]
Buffalo Bills 2026 scouting report: tight end Dalton Kincaid
Back in the early aughts, when the Buffalo Bills were firmly mired in the midst of a long, miserable playoff drought that was still going to be worse before it was better, I used to read a lot of Bill Simmons’ work. Admitting that now feels far less cool then it was at that point—or […]
NFL free-agent wide receivers Buffalo Bills could sign before Week 1
Ahead of the Buffalo Bills’ joint practice against the Cleveland Browns on August 20, injury reports and questionable statuses clouded the team’s wide receiver situation. Sal Capaccio of WGR550 shared a list of “(w)ide receivers I either don’t see at all or are here but NOT practicing: Khalil Shakir, Keon Coleman, Skyler Bell, Dante Pettis” […]
Khalil Shakir, Ed Oliver dealing with injuries ahead of joint practice, preseason game vs. Browns
Speaking to the media before his team squares off in joint practice against the Cleveland Browns, Buffalo Bills head coach Joe Brady provided health updates on two key members of the team.

Buffalo Bills fans grade signing of DL Greg Gaines
Welcome to SB Nation Reacts, a survey of fans across the NFL. Throughout the year we ask questions of the most plugged-in Bills fans and fans across the country. There’s been no shortage of discussion about the Buffalo Bills’ plans along the defensive line. After a nearly 10-year run in former head coach Sean McDermott’s […]
T.J. Sanders is the ultimate X-factor on new Buffalo Bills defense
The biggest X-factor on the Bills 2026 defense is hardly discussed by fans or media despite the fact he was an early-round pick a year ago. It’s T.J. Sanders, and I’m writing this piece to raise awareness of his importance to and potential within Buffalo’s defense under Jim Leonhard. Think about it — in back-to-back […]
Buffalo Bills Superfans: Final paint, spaulders
You got a tease of the paint on the armor before, and if you’re like I was, once you saw the first color coat go on, you were eager to see the final result. Anyway, I have the spaulders complete, including final paint. Right spaulder – Mafia means family Remember that each of the supplemental […]
Buffalo Bills 2026 scouting report: cornerback Christian Benford
The Buffalo Bills have some question marks in the defensive secondary. While they have plenty of talented players, there’s a fear that both of their likely top corners are somewhat prone to injury. Perhaps it’s unfair to designate a player who’s only been in the NFL for a season as injury prone, but for Buffalo’s […]
Identifying teams that may want to trade with Buffalo Bills
The stars are aligning for a Brandon Beane August Trade to materialize in the near future. Last week, I wrote about potential candidates to be shipped in a trade, two of which were offensive linemen. And now offensive line injuries are popping up across the league. On Wednesday, ESPN’s Adam Schefter reported a serious injury […]
Buffalo Bills fans ready for new defensive leadership in 2026
Late last week we asked Rumblers to weigh in about Buffalo Bills defensive leadership for the 2026 NFL season with our most recent Reacts poll, specifically asking which Bills defender rises to lead this year. It was a fun topic, mostly because at this point all we can do is posit wild guesses and theories […]
Texans lose second-year WR for season ahead of Week 1’s game vs. Bills
The Houston Texans will be down an important receiver when they square off against the Buffalo Bills in Week 1 to begin the 2026 regular season. Second-year pro Jayden Higgins, a 2025 second-round pick, was lost for the season after tearing his ACL in Houston’s joint practice with the Raiders this week. Higgins was the […]
2026 NFL season projection model pegs Buffalo Bills with second-most wins in AFC
‘Tis the time of the year when season projections are released by NFL media members and analytics enthusiasts alike, and a major one just dropped with the Buffalo Bills in a familiar spot in the AFC hierarchy. Austin Mock of The Athletic published the AFC results of his 2026 NFL season projection model which includes […]
Quick All-22 look at what Greg Gaines brings to Buffalo Bills
The Buffalo Bills have signed nose tackle Greg Gaines, who most recently played with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. With Gaines already a rotational piece in Tampa, there’s no expectation for him to come in and usurp anyone’s spot. That said, with most defensive schemes becoming a hybrid style, is it possible Gaines could carve out […]
Bills news: Observations from Tuesday’s open practice at Highmark Stadium
On Tuesday, the Buffalo Bills opened up new Highmark Stadium for an open practice session, an opportunity for many in Western New York to check out the Bills’ new palace for the first time. More than 41,000 fans took advantage of the opportunity to watch Josh Allen and co. run through their drills and workouts […]
Buffalo Bills 2026 scouting report: inside linebacker Dorian Williams
The Buffalo Bills defense has undergone a major transition this offseason. Gone is the read-and-react scheme of former head coach Sean McDermott. Enter instead a more attacking defense coordinated by former safety Jim Leonhard. Can a personnel grouping that was drafted to fit one system morph into something entirely different in just one season? That […]
Buffalo Bills signing of Greg Gaines was desperately needed
It certainly didn’t have to be Greg Gaines, but the Buffalo Bills were in dire need of a veteran rotational piece at nose tackle behind 22-year-old budding star Deone Walker. Jim Leonhard’s new system, which will feature a front that’s more amorphous than stagnant, does have a three-man defensive line foundation — maybe you’ve heard. […]
Buffalo Bills sign bolster defensive line with former Bucs nose tackle
It had become plainly obvious that the BuffaloBills needed nose tackle reinforcement behind Deone Walker — and now they have it by way of a veteran signing. Per ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler, the Bills have agreed to a deal with Greg Gaines. Gaines entered the NFL as a fourth-round pick by the Los Angeles Rams in […]
Buffalo Bills WR Keon Coleman has sprained foot/toe, per ESPN
During Tuesday’s open practice inside the new Highmark Stadium, Buffalo Bills receiver Keon Coleman was a notable non-participant because he was wearing a walking boot, and now we know the specifics of his injury. Kind of. Per ESPN’s Cameron Wolfe, the third-year receiver has been diagnosed with a sprained toe/foot: While it’s good to get […]
Nielsen confirms what Bills Mafia already knew: Buffalo has the NFL’s most avid fans
Bills Mafia, you may now collectively say it: Well, duh. According to Nielsen’s inaugural Scarborough NFL Fandom Index, Buffalo has the most avid NFL fan base in America. For those of us who have spent our lives around other Bills fans, this probably qualifies less as breaking news and more as independent confirmation of something […]
