Mafia Talk

Joe Brady is introduced as the 21st coach in franchise history, and currently the youngest head coach in the NFL. What will change under his regime? James and Adam break down Brady’s introductory press conference, and the remaining coaching vacancies. Josh Allen’s 5th metatarsal might be broken but he’s smiling again. 

Sean McDermott has been fired. Was he an admiral coach or an admirable coach?  James and Adam discuss the ineptitude of the firing, Brandon Beane and Terry Pegula’s press conference, and discuss if Terry is terrible at being an owner, or just awkward. 

Sadness and anger are widespread in the Mafia, but we’re trying to (desperately) look on the bright side. How many comeback wins is too many? Was the rebuilding year delayed? And will there be any changes coming? We break down the heartbreak and try to lift some spirits, mainly through James and Bella being caught dancing on the Sabres broadcast. 

Adam, Bella, and James recap the Bills thrilling wild card win over the Jags, we talk Allen’s mastery and calm, and the “Don’t Blink” Bills defense. And Adam gives one last rant on the Duval Jaguars and Lord Farquad, and we discuss Tony Romo’s mental health. 

Adam, Bella, and James recap the Bills throttling of the Jets 38-8. We talk about the “Highmark” sendoff, the memories of the stadium, and dig into the injuries, matchups, and teal-nightmare that are the Jacksonville Jaguars. 

Adam, Bella, and James recap the Bills unimpressive loss to the Eagles, discuss Josh's sadness, the Brady problem, and whether the Bills should just pass until we can't pass no more. The crew talks playoff seeding and whether we'd rather see the Bills travel to Jacksonville or New England for the Wild Card.

Adam and Bella recap the Bills unimpressive 23-20 victory over the Browns, talk about a the most unimpressive receiver room in NFL playoff history, and…did you know Keon’s in an NFL Shop commercial? Also, we discuss the Japanese concept of “Kaisen” and how to stay calm during the December stretch. 

Adam, Bella, and James recap the Bills 35-31 comeback over the Patriots, talk about a puking while quarterbacking, the RB room, the TE room, Matt Milano’s not dead, and Ray-Ray the Return Man. Then we dive into the weird calls, the terrible journalism phrases, and look forward to the final three games of the regular season. 

Adam interviews David Gracon, President of Bills Backers Romania, and Nicolae “Lawrence” Bucalau owner of Champions Sports Bar in Brasov, Romania. Lawrence educates us about Romania, Transylvania, and starting one of the country’s (only) sports bars. David, a Fulbright scholar and Buffalo native talks Romanians in general, and his experiences rooting for the Bills abroad and teaching young Romanians about media literacy.
