Eye on the Ball

The offseason has arrived 1 game too soon for the Buffalo Bills, falling short to the Chiefs yet again in the AFC Championship game. Mike Moeller joins Dan again to talk about what went wrong, and how to approach the roster for next season.

Dan is joined by guest co-host Mike Moeller this week as the Bills prepare to face the Ravens in the Divisional Round. The hopes are high, the takes are hot, and the stories get VERY weird.

The boys have made the call to the bullpen, and bring in the small but mighty righty! Amanda Williamson joins the pod with Dan to discuss the vibes surrounding the Bills, including a flexed game time & brand new uniform combo.

Who's to blame for the Bills loss in L.A.? Plus, the boys try to navigate disappointment and apathy when it comes to the Sabres hopes for this season and beyond.

The word of the week is optimism! The Bills are back to rolling along, and the Sabres aren't a complete disappointment. Jim & Dan are vibing this week with plenty of reasons to be excited about the months ahead.

The Bills handle the Titans playing one half of football and the hockey team might still think they’re in Europe. Is the Bills offense too predictable? Will the Sabres ever figure it out long term? Jim and Dan discuss, now!

The Bills drop to 3-1 on the year, and Dan and Jim are placing the blame in two different places. Bad play-calling, bad preparation, and bad coaching in critical moments all piled up.

HERE COME THE PLAYOFFS! The NFL Playoffs have arrived, and so have the Buffalo Bills. This week, we welcome Jim Zeiger on to the pod to celebrate yet another AFC East title and the playoff run yet to come. Plus - we want to know - who are the offensive and defensive MVPs for the Bills (excluding Allen)?

It's the most extreme set of circumstances you could consider... the #2 seed in the AFC, or potentially missing the playoffs altogether. That's the reality for the Bills, and we're just along for the ride...

This week’s magic number is 2….as in 2 weeks to go in the regular season, and the chase for the #2 seed in the AFC. Do the Bills beat the odds and win the division? Or are they due for a bad day? Let’s break down the scenarios as New England comes to town.

The final stretch is here, and while they don’t control their own destiny, the Bills have options when it comes to their playoff path. After the masterpiece they put together against the Cowboys, it seems like the sky might be the limit for this team…

4 weeks to play, and it's ALL UP FOR GRABS. The Wild Card, the AFC East, it's all still available for the Bills heading into Week 15 of the NFL season. And I hate to say it, but I'm drinking the kool-aid and I'm ALL the way back in on the Bills being a contender. Naysayers be damned, the next month is all about setting a course for the playoffs.

Our unedited review of the Tyler Dunne article on Sean McDermott as the Head Coach of the Buffalo Bills. Let's try to make sense of all of this together...

Here come the Chiefs! Somehow... some way... there's a lot of hope still to be had. Dan put money on the Bills to make the playoffs during the bye week, so at the very least you aren't the most delusional Bills fans you know.

What can you say to the Bills playoff chances and Week 13 ? Bye (maybe...)

It may be only for one week, but the vibes are all the way back for the Bills after exorcising a demon and beating the Jets. JA17 looked like he was having fun, secondary targets carried the offense, and the defense knocked Zach Wilson all the way to the 3rd string. Now bring on the Eagles, and a matchup that will really determine where expectations should be set the rest of the season.

A special edition of the podcast, the Bills have fired Offensive Coordinator Ken Dorsey. The burden now sits on Joe Brady's shoulders... but where are the expectations for the new OC with a season that's essentially lost at 5-5? Let's dig in, and rejoice at the fact that a move has been made!

The sunshine and rainbows are long gone, and it's time to face the reality that the Buffalo Bills might just not be a good football team. Yet, despite all of these disappointments, everything they want is still right in front of them. Is it the play-calling? The decision-making? The biggest question: Can they get back on track heading into the second half of the season...

The Bills are heading into Cincinnati off of a win, but does this team have what it takes to compete with the top tier of the AFC?

The bumbling Bills have managed to squander another easy game on their schedule. Please pardon me as I lose my mind and question every fiber of this team.

After some bumps in the road, we're back! The Bills fell victim to Jax the Rippers in London, and now they'll be missing 3 defensive starters for the rest of the season. Thankfully, the New York Giants are up next!

The Bills absolutely BLEW a golden opportunity to beat a division rival, and now they have a lot of questions to answer about their identity. Let's all lose our collective minds together so we can regroup ahead of the home opener, shall we?

The first team offense went backwards. The first team defense got burned. And yet, it means NOTHING! There's still plenty to learn about the Bills in the final preseason game, but the ceiling is as high as it's ever been.

As we head into the second week of the preseason, division rivals are making late roster additions, but where do things really stand in the AFC East? Plus, the most intriguing position battle remaining for the Bills, and top things to watch for in the matchup with the Steelers.
