In honor of the Giants-Pats game Sunday, here's the Helmet Catch! Man, that was great. Let’s be real: a lot of people love football because it’s the easiest and funnest sport to gamble on. And there’s nothing wrong with that. Personally, I’m too broke to gamble (being a first-year public school teacher isn’t too lucrative), but I sure do watch a lot of football. I figure I should help* my loyal readers out with some gambling advice. Each week I’ll pick four games plus a fifth “Lock of the Week.” *Help not guaranteed to be actually helpful. Holy crap, I [...]

Erik Pears is hardly a household name – well, that is until reports of him getting a contract extension before Fred Jackson were reported by WGR550. There is very good reason for the Bills trying to lock up their starting right tackle now instead of waiting for the season to end. Lets first examine Pears play in Buffalo. When the Buffalo Bills lost out on the Tyson Clabo bidding to the Falcons they had had their minds made that going into camp Pears would be the favorite to land the job. Through 4 pre-season starts it was obvious that Pears [...]

Could Brandon Jenkins be Buffalo's first draft pick in 2012? There’s a lot of great team sites in the Fansided NFL network, but one of the very best blogs on Fansided isn’t devoted to a single team at all. It’s NFL Mocks, a fantastic college scouting/NFL draft/fantasy football site that covers all NFL teams and college prospects. You should definitely check it out if you haven’t already. As a bonus, the lead editor of NFL Mocks is Jesse Bartolis, a great football mind who also happened to grow up in the same dinky Upstate New York town as me. Jesse [...]

David Nelson's gotta help out his buddy Stevie this weekend. It’s a team game and all that, but who are the five most important players for Buffalo in the coming week’s game? Each week we’ll take a look in a feature called Five Key Players. Buffalo finds itself in an absolutely huge game this weekend against its AFC East rival the New York Jets…and I can’t lie – this game positively terrifies me. I’m very concerned the Bills don’t match up very well against the Jets at all, and it could be a long day for Buffalo on offense. Of course, I [...]

This week's game with the Jets has huge playoff implications. With the Bills actually in the playoff chase this year, each week we’ll be breaking down the AFC playoff situation in a feature called AFC Playoff Picture. The AFC Playoff situation is a total mess right now. Almost halfway through the season, a whopping 11 of the 16 AFC teams are over .500, but no team is better than 6-2. This means that no one has locked up a spot, but only four teams are truly out of the race. This stands in contrast to the NFC, where Green Bay [...]

Does Marcell Dareus's 2.5 sacks deserve this week's BLD game ball? Another Bills victory means we need to award another game ball to Buffalo’s MVP of the game. The last time Buffalo won (Week 5 against the Eagles), our readers selected S George Wilson for the honor. He had another huge game yesterday, so he’ll have a chance to make it two game balls in a row this week. A lot of guys stepped up and played well yesterday (we could of nominated anyone from the defense, really), but only one can get our game ball for the week. (To [...]

Can Fred Davis make up for the loss of Chris Cooley for the season? Editor’s Note: We’re very lucky here at BLD to be part of Fansided, a wide-reaching network with blogs for every NFL team (as well as a huge selection of NBA, NHL, MLB, and other blogs as well). We’d be dumb not to take advantage of these resources, so welcome to our weekly feature: Behind Enemy Lines. Each week, we’ll be checking in with the staff from the Fansided blog representing the Bills’ opponent for that the week. This week, we’re checking in with Kevin Mayer II of Riggo’s [...]

Congrats, Fitz. You earned it. The Bills have gone all-in on Ryan Fitzpatrick as their franchise quarterback. Yesterday, it was revealed that the Bills have signed Fitzpatrick to a big six-year contract extension that could worth as much as $59 million. The contract includes $24 million in guaranteed money. You don’t make that kind of investment if you don’t believe Fitzpatrick is your quarterback of the future, and GM Buddy Nix said as much yesterday, saying: ”I’m excited about Ryan getting this done. He’ll be our quarterback for a long time.” Of course, the question now is: Did the Bills make [...]
