The Buffalo Bills flattened the Pittsburgh Steelers 26-7 on Sunday afternoon, bringing their season record to 8-4. Buffalo now holds possession of the seven seed in the AFC, with the Cincinnati Bengals, New England Patriots, Cleveland Browns, Philadelphia Eagles, and New York Jets all on tap for the final five games of the season.

The Week 13 injury report was rather lengthy, with offensive tackles Dion Dawkins and Spencer Brown both sidelined, along with wide receiver Joshua Palmer and tight end Dalton Kincaid. On defense, linebacker Terrel Bernard was unable to suit up after sustaining an elbow injury in Week...

The Buffalo Bills committed two costly first-half turnovers during Sunday’s Week 13 clash vs. the Pittsburgh Steelers and went into halftime trailing 7-3 despite James Cook, Ray Davis and the ground game consistently gashing the Steelers during the first 30 minutes.

The second half was a completely different story for the Bills, who emerged with a 26-7 victory to hang onto the No. 7 seed in the crowded AFC playoff picture, and today’s edition of Buffalo Rumblinks leads off with observations and analysis from a bounce back win for the Bills in Pittsburgh.

Thoughts on Bills win over Steelers -----------------------------------...

Late in Sunday’s 26-7 win over the Pittsburgh Steelers, the Buffalo Bills may have received another piece of bad news. Defensive end Joey Bosa was listed as questionable to return to the game with a hamstring injury.

Bosa’s exit from the game (he did, in fact, not return) was quiet and unnoticed until the Bills made the announcement from the sideline. What was noticed was Bosa’s strip-sack on Pittsburgh quarterback Aaron Rodgers. The forced fumble was the fifth of the year for the Bosa, who is now tied for the team’s single-season record.

The good news for Buffalo is that...

Los Angeles Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert broke his non-throwing hand in Sunday’s win over the Las Vegas Raiders. After the game, the Chargers stated that their starting quarterback will undergo surgery on Monday, and that his status for Week 14 is uncertain.

Herbert, however, is making plans to play a week after the surgery when the Chargers host the Philadelphia Eagles on Monday Night Football.

Los Angeles currently sits at the fifth seed position in the AFC’s playoff picture. The Chargers have an 8-4 record as do the Buffalo Bills and Indianapolis Colts. Los Angeles has a 7-2 record in...

Well, that was different! By the time Styx’s “Renegade” blared over the soundsystem at Acrisure Stadium, Pittsburgh Steelers fans were over it. The Buffalo Bills were well on their way to a dominating 26-7 Week 13 victory in the most unlikely of ways. It didn’t matter how the win came, the goal was just to find a way.

Buffalo destroyed a Pittsburgh defensive line that insisted on talking far too much between plays. Meanwhile, the Steelers couldn’t get out of their own way in trying fruitlessly to establish a ground game. The Bills are now 8-4 and still in playoff...

The Buffalo Bills won in Week 13, but the Los Angeles Chargers and Jacksonville Jaguars did, too. The Bills stick in the seventh spot in the AFC this week.

The New England Patriots remain in first place in the AFC East. They play on Monday night and Buffalo can’t pass them.

The Denver Broncos play Sunday night.

The big news came in the AFC south where the Jaguars and Texans won and the Colts lost, shuffling the order. The Jaguars move into first place in the division and third place in the AFC. The Colts fall from the top of...

Josh Allen, the Buffalo Bills’ reigning NFL MVP quarterback, is no stranger to NFL records. Now, he has another. With his latest rushing touchdown, Allen has surpassed former Carolina Panthers and New England Patriots quarterback Cam Newton as the leader in rushing touchdowns by a quarterback in NFL history.

Allen scored his 76th regular-season rushing touchdown against the Pittsburgh Steelers. With Buffalo facing third down and goal to go, Allen called his own number on a quarterback draw. In typical Allen fashion, he bulldozed his way into the end zone, dragging defenders and teammates alike across the goal line for...

The Buffalo Bills trail the Pittsburgh Steelers 7-3 in a game that defines the importance of field position. If there’s one thing to prioritize against Pittsburgh, it’s not turning the ball over on offense. Yet, quarterback Josh Allen and running back James Cook III have killed scoring opportunities thanks to a turnover from each.

Being candid, this offense is terrible. There have been two catches by wide receivers. The running back is working well as expected, but offensive coordinator is telegraphing plays by overusing Cook in too many predictable ways. Buffalo has twice as many yards on offense as compared...

The Buffalo Bills are dealing with two injuries to their starting offensive line on Sunday. Left tackle Dion Dawkins and right tackle Spencer Brown are both out. In their place, Ryan Van Demark is making the start at left tackle and Alec Anderson is in at right tackle.

Anderson hasn’t played right tackle since he played at UCLA in 2021. His playing time in Buffalo has almost exclusively been as a sixth offensive lineman.

Buffalo hasn’t been down two starters on the o-line in quiet some time as they have stayed very healthy. Brown missed agame earlier this year and...

After losing to the Houston Texans in Week 12, a game which saw the Texans’ defense absolutely smother quarterback Josh Allen and the offensive line as a whole, the Buffalo Bills will take on another AFC opponent today in the Pittsburgh Steelers. The Bills are in the playoff-push part of their schedule, most likely having to get in by way of a Wild Card spot with the New England Patriots sitting pretty at 10-2 and primed to take the AFC East division title.

There is only a one-game difference between these two teams, with the Bills at 7-4 and the...

The Buffalo Bills and the Pittsburgh Steelers are each in the midst of a dogfight for playoff positioning. Thanks to parity in the division, the 6-5 Steelers have a great chance at winning the AFC North. Thanks to head-scratching losses and the emergence of the New England Patriots, the 7-4 Bills are likely fighting for a Wild Card berth rather than a sixth consecutive AFC East title.

Buffalo has been up-and-down for the last two months, as a 4-0 start to the season has given way to a 3-4 stretch of maddening, mediocre football. Pittsburgh, meanwhile, started the season similarly,...

The Buffalo Bills are now fighting for their playoff lives, entering their Week 13 game against the Pittsburgh Steelers in the final spot of the AFC playoff race (seven). If you’re apt to use the term “must-win game” — well, there’s no better time than now given what Buffalo faces in Pittsburgh. That thought process may very well be the case from here on out, and not just for the slimmest of chances they could still have a shot at the AFC East title.

Quite frankly, the Bills would do well to win out in their pursuit of a playoff...
