Buffalo Rumblings: for Buffalo Bills fans

Host John Boccacino is joined by co-host Jamie D'Amico to recap the Buffalo Bills' playoff-clinching win over the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 15. Thanks to a dominant defensive performance (led by Tre'Davious White's two interceptions) and more fourth-quarter heroics from Josh Allen, the Bills earned a 17-10 win and secured their second playoff berth in the last three years. Our podcasters discuss how the Bills earned another prime-time victory, revel in the tremendous effort put forth by Tre'Davious White, Tremaine Edmunds, Jordan Phillips and the Bills defense, celebrate a 1,000-yard season from WR John Brown, and celebrate what this win means for Bills Mafia. Boccacino and D'Amico also address the lack of Pro Bowlers from Buffalo, which at 10-4 landed the same number of honorees (Tre White) as the Cincinnati Bengals, Denver Broncos, Jacksonville Jaguars, Detroit Lions, and the New York Jets, teams that have gone a combined 19-50-1. Among those who deserved a Pro Bowl nod: Phillips, Brown, Jordan Poyer and more. Check out these topics and more on the latest Billieve Podcast!

We recap the Buffalo Bills' win over the Steelers in Pittsburgh to clinch a playoff spot in the AFC and get to 10-4 on the season on Sunday Night Football.. The defense again played lights out and took away the ball from Devlin "Duck" Hodges, including two picks from Tre'Davious White (of Tre White Goalie Academy Fame). Josh Allen did enough in key situations to win the game, despite his receivers having more rough drops this week. We have a Tyler Kroft sighting. We also discuss the scenario where the Bills could sit their players in Week 17.

We announce the winner of the signed Tremaine Edmunds jersey, and, as always, we discuss our general thoughts on the game, stats of the game, plays of the game (Sweet Sassy Molassy!), who goes on our Wall of Fame and who goes on the Wall of Shame (and turn to Twitter for some great reaction from our followers). Next, the 11-3 New England Patriots in Foxborough on Saturday! Go Bills!

Host John Boccacino is joined by co-host Jamie D'Amico to break down the Buffalo Bills (9-4) trip to face the Pittsburgh Steelers (8-5) on Sunday Night Football. Among the topics discussed: by now, the rest of the league knows the key to containing Josh Allen is to bring the pressure with a Cover-0 blitz scheme, which features blitzing safeties and more pass rushers than there are blockers. Allen will have another chance to show how well he can handle the pressure vs. T.J. Watt and a top-five Steelers' defense. Our podcasters expect more draws and wheel route passes to rookie Devin Singletary, more slant passes to Cole Beasley, and more deep and in routes to John Brown and Robert Foster. We discuss the health of the offensive line and the massive challenge facing rookie Cody Ford against Watt, who has 12.5 sacks this year for a Steelers defense that leads the league in sacks, QB hits, and takeaways. We also address what Buffalo needs to do to contain undrafted rookie QB Duck Hodges, how the Bills can scheme for RBs James Conner and Jaylen Samuels, what role Tremaine Edmunds will play, and the importance of Ed Oliver and Jerry Hughes getting after Hodges with the pass rush. We also give our score predictions!

Host John Boccacino is joined by co-host Jamie D'Amico to recap the Buffalo Bills 24-17 loss to the Baltimore Ravens in Week 14. Among the topics discussed: the Bills had a chance to make a statement against the league's front-running MVP candidate (Lamar Jackson) and the high-flying Ravens offense. While the defense was phenomenal (outside of one broken coverage play that led to a long touchdown), the offense couldn't keep up; the offensive line struggled mightily in pass blocking against the Ravens; Josh Allen once again underwhelmed in his performance when under pressure, although he wasn't helped by drops from Dawson Knox, Cole Beasley and others; once again, Brian Daboll showed a tendency to dial up the deep ball vs. Baltimore with little success to show for it; Allen was beaten up by a physical Ravens defense; rookie Devin Singletary continued his impressive rookie season, averaging more than five yards per rush; Leslie Frazier's defense did an outstanding job containing Baltimore's offense, limiting the Ravens to 257 yards of total offense; linebackers Tremaine Edmunds and Lorenzo Alexander were all over the field and enjoyed terrific games vs. Baltimore. The bottom line: the Bills need to clean up a few items (the drops and poor pass protection chief among them) but Buffalo fans should feel good knowing the Bills had a chance to steal this game Sunday.
