When stat scouring the Buffalo Bills’ Week 9 win over the Kansas City Chiefs, there was a lot of clamor regarding quarterback Patrick Mahomes having his first sub-50% completion rate of his career (44%). Mahomes completed a scant 15 passes on 34 attempts. Josh Allen on the other hand set a Bills franchise record for completion percentage, doubling Mahomes with 88% with 23 completions on 26 attempts. It gets even weirder than that though.

Despite completing over 50% more passes than Mahomes (23 vs. 15), Josh Allen only had 23 more yards than Patrick Mahomes. That’s right, the passing volume...

The Buffalo Bills may not have made any moves at the 2025 NFL trade deadline, but they did make some transactions relating to their practice squad on Tuesday. The Bills announced that they released two players from the practice squad: linebacker Jimmy Ciarlo and wide receiver Kristian Wilkerson.

Ciarlo, 24, has appeared in one game this season, playing 13 special teams snaps after being signed to the 53-man roster from the practice squad before Buffalo’s 23-20 loss to the New England Patriots. He did not appear on the stat sheet aside from those snaps played. Buffalo waived Ciarlo on October...

When all was said and done, the Buffalo Bills were window shoppers from the sideline as the 2025 NFL trade deadline passed. That doesn’t mean general manager Brandon Beane and One Bills Drive sat idle. Reports and rumors leading up to the 4 p.m. EST deadline on November 4 had Buffalo in talks with the Washington Commanders for a pair of household names.

Were the Bills really trying to bring back edge rusher Von Miller? Was a potential deal in place for wide receiver Deebo Samuel? The merits of a reunion with the 36-year-old Miller can and will be debated...

Buffalo Bills general manager has pulled off plenty of moves at the NFL trade deadline in the past. We will see if he makes another move today.

Here we will collect all the Bills-related rumors and information as we approach the 4 p.m. Eastern deadline and beyond. Stay tuned!

Buffalo Bills start trade deadline with $3 million in cap space

The Buffalo Bills have some space to play with at the NFL trade deadline after restructuring Taron Johnson. With about $3 million, they can add one player outright and maybe two if they are low enough on the base...

The Buffalo Bills hosted the Kansas City Chiefs and hung on for a hard-fought win this past Sunday. Along the way they had to work through a couple of iffy calls from referee Carl Cheffers and his crew.

Now don’t get wrong as I tend to choose my words carefully. Cheffers didn’t straight up blow any calls, and there’s zero hint of bias in the flags thrown. I’m going to stand by “iffy” though.

The Buffalo Bills defeated the Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday, winning 28-21 in their latest regular-season win over their perennial playoff tormentors. Buffalo improved to 5-1 against Kansas City in the regular season since 2020, but they remain 0-4 against those same Chiefs in the postseason during that same span.

For 60 minutes on Sunday, none of that mattered, as the Bills came up with one of their best performances of the 2025 season in a game that they had to have in order to keep pace with the rest of the AFC. With the New England Patriots sneaking out...

Entering Sunday’s Week 9 tilt between the Buffalo Bills and Kansas City Chiefs, there were many NFL observers who thought Kansas City’s high-octane offense would overwhelm Buffalo’s banged up defense, and that the Chiefs were the better team than the Bills.

In the words of legendary sportscaster and former college football coach Lee Corso: not so fast my friend.

Quarterback Josh Allen was nearly flawless, completing 23 of 26 passes for 273 yards with three total touchdowns, running back James Cook III ran wild, tight end Dalton Kincaid was a nightmare matchup, and Greg Rousseau, Joey Bosa and Buffalo’s pass...

Honestly, this game? It’s not a great showcase for the NFL. Here at Buffalo Rumblings, we care so much about our readers that even with a subpar primetime matchup, it only feels right to give you your proper space to discuss the action.

We passed on a thread for last night’s primetime “clash” between the Seattle Seahawks and Washington Commanders in what became a devastating evening for quarterback Jayden Daniels due to an elbow injury. Bills Mafia were interested in talking more about the Buffalo Bills’ win over the Kansas City Chiefs than an NFC clash with zero rooting interests....

The Buffalo Bills have created an extra $1.75 million in 2025 salary cap space by restructuring the contract for nickel cornerback Taron Johnson on Monday, November 3. The Bills reportedly converted Johnson’s 2025 base salary into a signing bonus, which allowed for that extra cap savings.

It’s a move by general manager Brandon Beane and One Bills Drive that may allow the team to make moves ahead of the NFL trade deadline on November 4.

What a difference two games make. The Buffalo Bills are 6-2, having just taken down the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 9. It was a game where Buffalo entered as home underdogs despite a better record and defense-shredding rushing attack. As they did against the Carolina Panthers, the Bills took it to the Chiefs behind running back James Cook III and a ferocious attack from both sides of the trenches.

What does that portend for Week 10, when Buffalo heads to South Beach? Opening odds at [FanDuel Sportsbook have the Bills as 9.5-point favorites (-9.5) over the Miami Dolphins in...

This Sunday before the Miami Dolphins take on the Buffalo Bills, our friends at Eater are hosting the Eater Ultimate Tailgate presented by Diageo at Grails Miami in Wynwood. If you’re looking for some highlights of Miami, this is the place to be.

Yeah, there will be Dolphins fans. Hopefully we can get some Bills fans, too.

Your paid ticket includes food from Eater Miami favorites Doggi’s Arepa Bar, Sanguich, and Fookem’s Fabulous plus three (3) drink tickets! Then you get a ride to and from the game to highlight Diageo’s commitment to never driving impaired.

When the Buffalo Bills signed Jordan Poyer to the team’s practice squad at the end of August, Bills Mafia was divided. Many assumed the 34-year-old safety was brought back merely as a depth piece and mentor for second-year safety Cole Bishop and rookie defensive back Jordan Hancock.

But I kept saying it was a great move beyond that idea. After the first couple games of seeing safeties Taylor Rapp, Damar Hamlin, and Bishop struggle, I was very vocal in saying that having Poyer on the field may be more important than just having him in the building.

And now, weeks...
