On this episode of Talking Buffalo, Patrick Moran is joined by Joe From Queens for some instant live reactions immediately after the conclusion of the Buffalo Bills preseason game at the Chicago Bears that saw the Bills down four touchdowns before they hit the locker room for halftime and ultimately lose, 38-0. 

If it wasn't obvious already, the Buffalo Bills officially have a safety problem.  Preseason or not it's still football and even in the most simplistic of ways, both Cole Bishop and Damar Hamlin looked positively dreadful in Chicago, which sets Patrick off on a series of rants. Whether it's rookie Jordan Hancock or Brandon Beane looking outside the organization for help it's obvious to Patrick the team needs help beyond Taylor Rapp, who has issues staying healthy himself.

Now granted, not a Bills regular starter player in this game other than Bishop and it's a preseason game and one it clearly looked Chicago game planned a lot more than Buffalo for but make not mistake about it---a lot of the depth guys looked horrendous. Despite Joe not caring at all Patrick talks about the struggles of "Buffalo" Joe Andreessen and Dane Jackson among several others.  Also, where were the Bills rookie defensive lineman in this game? Patrick's clearly more fired up than he should be while again, Joe doesn't care at all.

It's Joe's first weekly appearance on the podcast since being on "vacation" and the guys spend some time catching up and by that, we mean mostly trading insults.
