On this episode of Talking Buffalo, Patrick Moran is joined by Joe From Queens for instant live reaction just moments after the conclusions of the Buffalo Bills losing their first game of the season, 23-20 to the New England Patriots at Highmark Stadium under the lights of Sunday night football.

To say it was an uncharacteristic loss for the Bills was an understatement, particularly on offense. Josh Allen accounted for over 300 yards and two touchdowns but the offense committed three turnovers, two lost fumbles by non-running backs and a very bad interception from Allen in the third quarter that ultimately proved costly. They also only averaged 4.1 yards rushing and James Cook was bottled up for just 49 yards on 15 carries.

The defense was good and kept the Bills in the game all night for sure but weren't without flaws themselves, particularly a secondary that allowed Stefon Diggs to absolutely cook them to the tune of 10 catches for 146 yards. They sacked Drake Maye four times but Daquan Jones couldn't pull him down on what proved to be a crucial play to help the Patriots win.

The guys have a ton of takes in real time just minutes after to discuss all the good, bad and ugly from this annoying but frankly, kind of overdue first Buffalo loss.

Additionally, Joe has his weekly Mt. Flushmore, this time highlighting/lowlighting the worst prime time moments in Highmark Stadium history.  That and plenty more.
