On this episode of Talking Buffalo, Patrick Moran shares several of his biggest takeaways after watching back the film and pouring over stats from the Buffalo Bills come from behind victory this past Sunday on the road against the New England Patriots and thinks the Bills are the NFL's new kardiac kids.

Back in the early 80's the Cleveland Browns were regarded as the Kardiac Kids because of their ability to come from behind and win improbable games late. The Bills fell down by three touchdowns in Foxboro against a team that had won 10 in a row and was on the verge of clinching the AFC East. Not so fast, of course---as Buffalo erased the deficit and went on to win. In fact, the Bills are now 4-0 this season when they give up at least 31 points.

Patrick has several thoughts on the game, including the old guard on defense really carrying them this past Sunday. Tre White had an interception and carried the second-highest PFF grade of his career in this game, while Matt Milano had a pair of sacks. Both very much looked like the former All Pro versions of themselves on this day.

Of course, Josh Allen and James Cook led the way on offense but it's been the tight ends that have consistently carried the passing game.

That plus the good and bad of Sean McDermott and tons more.

On this emergipod edition of Talking Buffalo, Patrick Moran is joined by hockey writer and sports media personality Joe Yerdon to discuss the Monday Buffalo Sabres bombshell that'd been rumored for days----the firing of general manager Kevyn Adams and appointment of Jarmo Kekalainen to take his position.

After five and a half largely unsuccessful seasons as general manager, Adams is officially out. With him at the helm Buffalo went 178-196-42 and never finished higher than 20th in the league standings as the Sabres historic playoff drought reached 14 and in high danger of being 15 this season. Rather than wait for the season to play out Terry Pegula is finally making the change now, going to someone with vast more experience entering the position in Kekalainen than Adams had (aka none) when Adams took the job back in 2020. Jarmo spent parts of 12 seasons as the general manager in Columbus before being fired in 2024 and moving into the Sabres department under a senior advisory role in May of this year.

Joe has plenty and we mean plenty to say about both the departure of Adams and the promotion of Kakalainein, including on if it's a move he agrees with, the timing of it, an evaluation of Adams' job both on and off the ice over the past five years, what he expects from Kekalainen going forward, what it may mean for head coach Lindy Ruff and boatloads more.

On this episode of Talking Buffalo, Patrick Moran is joined by Joe From Queens for live reaction following the Buffalo Bills offense going nuclear in the second half and the defense doing just enough to beat the New England Patriots, 35-31 and keep their AFC east hopes alive.

With the season Matt Stafford's having with Los Angeles and their record, it's probably too late for Josh Allen to rally and win a second consecutive MVP. But boy is he building up a case late in the season for the repeat. After a sluggish start the Bills scored a touchdown on five consecutive drives and Allen as usual was the catalyst. The fact the Bills are clicking on offense without much of anything from the wide receivers outside of Khalil Shakir is incredible. The guys try to make sense of it all.

Speaking of not making much sense, how about the Bills defense? After getting absolutely gashed for 287 yards and 24 points in the the first half alone, the defense bit back hard in the second half. They gave up a frustrating 65 yard touchdown run to Treyveon Henderson but aside from that gave up a total of just 15 yards on New England's other four possessions, including an interception by Tre White. Again, the guys try to make sense of that.

Sean McDermott was awful in the first half but to his credit, his team clearly never felt like the game was over and played like it in the second half. The guys talk about that, if they have a different feeling about the Bills going forward and tons more.
