Good morning gang...a day late, as I was at the game on Sunday where I watched the Buffalo Bills easily handle the Baltimore Ravens 36 - 10, on a sunny 70 degree day in Orchard Park! Not a whole lot to say when you're playing an emergency quarterback, who last year was throwing passes to Skyler Bell at UConn. We'll take an easy, stress free W and say we're on to Week #9. I'll give my only shout out to the stadium. I was very impressed with the new Highmark. Any of the early complaints, I believe, were way overblown. Imagine they have plexiglass to protect people from falling and maybe that view through it, isn't perfect...no kidding...what stadium doesn't have this minor issue with certain seats? I was on the top row in section 405, under the scoreboard, and I felt much closer than I would have in the last row at The Ralph, and I could see everything. It was a great vantage point to see all the plays develop. Plus, I was in an actual seat that was large, with more legroom than the old stadium. The concourse was much bigger and easier to get concessions, and it's just awesome that Buffalo has a first-class stadium now.

With the win, the Bills are atop the AFC at 6 - 1. Obviously, a long way to go, and a big test Monday night at Minnesota. Bennett's will have the game, so come on out if you can, but as I've said many times...we normally don't get big crowds for night games.

Go Bills!!!

Good morning gang…I’m typing this recap from the Las Vegas airport where yesterday I watched the Buffalo Bills beat “da Raiders” 33 – 30. It wasn’t pretty again, but we’ll take the “W”. Josh was Josh, with a pretty ordinary performance by his standards…255 passing yards and 2 passing TD’s, highlighted by a shuffle pass that only he and maybe Mahomes can make, to Keon Coleman for a 3rd quarter touchdown. Coleman led the team in receiving yards and James Cook had a fairly normal game with 95 rushing yards, one rushing TD, and zero fumbles 😊 No other offensive player really stood out. Shout out to Tyler Bass, who I don’t want to jinx, but he was perfect on a day when the offense stalled and ended the game with a perfect 7 – 7 on FG’s and extra points. He hasn’t missed a FG this season! Now to the defense ☹ Where do I begin? I’ll start by saying the C.J. Gardner-Johnson experience should be over! Not only has he been a liability in the secondary, and who knows, maybe he’s not helping Cole Bishop either, as his play has deteriorated through the first 6 games, but now the ugly side of him is rearing it’s ugly head. He had a reputation for being a problem, and after yesterday, I think it’s easy to see why…he cost his team 15 yards by spitting on a player, but thankfully the refs did the Bills a favor by kicking him out of the game, as it seemed they played a little better without him in the line-up. Beane has created the mess on defense with his picks, so maybe he can help fix the defense, and add some decent players before the deadline. Cousins looked like he had a red jersey on, as the Bills didn’t get near him the entire game, and that led to many uncontested catches. As much as I thought, well at least our defensive line is playing well against the pass, I think I have to reconsider this take. I heard earlier that the Bills are the 3rd worst team in league in pressure rate. 5 – 1 is a great record and we’ll all take it, but wow…can they continue to outscore everyone?

With the win, the Bills are one game up in the division. Enjoy the two week break and come out to Bennett’s for what should be a great matchup, Sunday, November 1st at 1:00 o’clock at home against the Baltimore Ravens.

Go Bills!!!

Good morning gang…finally…the Bills win a “game of the year” type of game, as they somehow beat the Los Angeles Rams, in an overtime thriller, 37 – 34. It was a seesaw game, and for most of it, incredibly frustrating to watch. In the end though, Josh put on the cape and ran the Bills to a victory. I was worried about the defense before the year started, and 5 games in, I just don’t know how they’ll allow the Bills to go anywhere, as they get torched week after week by almost every receiving corps. Unless the defensive line gets pressure, the DB’s, LB’s and safeties leave guys wide open for easy completions. Last night probably moved the Bills down to the 32nd ranked team in the league on defense. Can a team really be a legitimate contender with a defense as bad as this one? I’d say, hell no, but maybe, just maybe some guys start to figure it out, Leonard makes some adjustments and Beane gets a guy or two to help via trade, because I’d say, he’s done a poor job of acquiring top tier talent throughout most of his run. The offense without DJ Moore looks like the last two years, where Josh has to make things happen on his own. Last night he had his legs back, and in my opinion, his running was the #1 reason the Bills won. What are the Bills going to do about their great RB, who continues to put the ball on the ground? Maybe play Ray Davis and Ty Johnson more, as they make big plays when given the chance. Cook is going to have a rough rest of the year, as the book is out on him, and every team will continue to try and punch the ball out. He has to figure out how to protect the ball better but I heard a stat earlier today that since the start of the 2025 season, he has 11 fumbles and the next closest RB has 6…not good James ☹ I know it’s only 5 games, but if last night is a look at how Brady will manage games and the clock, I’m a little concerned. Why the Bills decided to let Bass “notomatic” kick a 45 yard FG with two minutes to go, when they should have run Josh to get closer, and take the clock down so the Rams wouldn’t have an easy victory if he missed, is mind blowing! Oh well, it worked and we’ll take the 4 – 1 record, but this team has a lot of flaws. Oh yeah, and have to give a shout out to Greg Rousseau who made a great play that had a “big hand” in the victory!

With the win, the Bills still retain the #1 spot in the AFC East. Let’s just go one game at a time, and do our normal crossing of fingers and toes all season long. Next up, what should be a very winnable game at Sin City for a 4:25 kick-off against “da Raiders”. Come on out to Bennett’s if you can.

Go Bills!!!

Good morning gang…the Buffalo Bills lost yesterday to the New England Patriots, 29 – 26. It was painful to watch, as the Bills made the Patriots and Drake May look like a legit team. The Pats scored 29 points in total in their first three games, but against the Bills JV defense, they looked like world beaters. Drake May ran free all day, and our DB’s and LB’s looked like the Keystone Cops trying to cover them…it was a brutal day! That’s back-to-back weeks at home, the Bills have “laid an egg”. At 3 – 1, as I’ve heard some of the Bills players saying, “smoke detectors” are going off. Well, I’d say the detectors are beeping, nonstop, and the fire department might have a 5-alarm blaze starting to burn, especially with the Bills defense. I’ll start with their play yesterday, and really most of the first 4 games. I believe I heard the Bills are 8th in the league at generating pressure but 28th in the league in pass defense? If that’s true, that’s what my eyeballs tell me…they generate pressure quite a bit, but receivers are wide open. And yesterday, Maye just had to turn up field and run, and a linebacker was rarely in the picture and/or able to keep up with him. Is it too early to say Maxwell Hairston may be the next Kahir Elam? At least when we realized Elam was a bust, they had other guys who could play instead of him. And what happened to Cole Bishop or Gardner Johnson? Other than Gardner Johnson’s interception last week, I’m not sure I’ve seen him make a play yet? The Bills defense and coaches have an issue, and let’s hope they can figure something out, but I’m worried Beane has left them with not too much to work with in terms of CB’s, Safeties or LB’s ☹ Now on to the offense. It’s clear that if DJ Moore isn’t on the field, the offense reverts back to the last two seasons, of underneath throws and Josh scrambling for his life. Dion Dawkins had a horrible day, and I’ve been wondering for over a year now, if it’s time to look for the next LT. And, while this team will only go as far as Josh takes them, he can’t make that throw to end the game. Throwing it up for grabs to Palmer of all people, when he’s double covered, is something I expect from a rookie QB. Josh has to play smarter than that..in a game like yesterday. Only bright spot of the day…Keon Coleman.

At the quarter point of the season, I would have taken a 3 – 1 record before the season started. After yesterday, I’m nervous. The next two weeks are big tests before the bye week. Not sure how they will cover and contain the Rams, but we’ll find out when they travel to Los Angeles for a Monday night matchup. It’s only one game, but the last two have put me, and I’m sure most of Bills Nation, on edge. Fingers crossed, we don’t see another defensive performance like yesterday, and that maybe that was the low point, and it’s upward and onward from here on out.

Go Bills!!!

Good morning gang…yikes, that was a wild ride! The Buffalo Bills somehow beat the Los Angeles Chargers yesterday, 24 – 16. Five turnovers, lots of tough penalties, and somehow, the Bills persevered and still won, and for you gamblers out there, my self included, they even covered 😊 Every year there’s going to be a game or two like this, but not too many people had 5 turnovers and a Bills win on their Bingo card. Maybe it was the putrid Nickle City uniforms and Josh couldn’t see who he was throwing to, but for most of the day, this game felt like a bad loss. However, good teams figure out how to sometimes win games like this, and all that matters is a 3 – 0 record, and the Bills already have a two game lead in the division. Only one shout out on offense this week, as James Cook somehow ran 24 times for 154 yards. I knew he was running well, but I didn’t realize he racked up that much yardage. The defense played tough and somehow kept the Chargers to only 16 points, and once again Greg Rousseau gets a shout out with two more sacks. If he keeps this up, can you say Bills single season sack record?

Next up, a big game at home against a 1 – 2 New England Patriot team at 1:00 o’clock. A win on Sunday and with only a month in, the Bills will have a commanding lead in the division. I hope to see everyone at Bennett’s, and if you want to head to Jimmy’s Italian Kitchen in Kettering today for lunch, there’s always a contingent of Bills fans there on Mondays.

Go Bills!!!

Good afternoon gang…what a way to open the new stadium! The Buffalo Bills easily handled the Detroit Lions 41 – 31. It was a game that was never in doubt. Josh and company had their way with the Lion’s defense and scored touchdowns on their first 4 drives. They were impressive all night long, and it sounded like the crowd noise was deafening! I can’t wait to get up there to see a game. Easy shout to Josh for an almost perfect night…he threw for 3 TD’s and ran for 2. Other offensive shout outs to James Cook with 135 yards rushing and 1 TD, Dalton Kincaid with 95 receiving yards and 1 TD, and I’ll give Keon Coleman maybe his first shout out. He’s certainly struggled in his first couple of years, but if he can provide games like last night, while you’d like more from a player taken as high as him, I’ll take that type of production from a #3 receiver. The defense has a long way to go, but I’ll give two shout outs to Greg Rousseau, who seemed to channel Bruce Smith on his two sacks, and Deone Walker. Deone didn’t show up on the stat sheet, but you could see his presence on many plays, and he had 3 pass breakups. This kid could be legit!

With the win, the Bills are 2 – 0 with 10 days off. Let’s hope Ed Oliver’s hip issue is nothing serious, and it sounds like DJ Moore’s shoulder injury is not that serious so that’s a relief. With him in the lineup, along with a healthy Kincaid, this is a much better offense than what we’ve witnessed over the last few years. Next up, the Los Angeles Chargers come to Buffalo Sunday the 27th for a 1:00 o’clock kick-off. I’m sure Bennett’s will be rocking so I hope to see everyone next Sunday. Enjoy Sunday’s game with a big smile, knowing we’ve already picked up our win for the week 😊

Go Bills!

Good morning Dayton Bills Backers…or should I say “GREAT MORNING”? The air’s a little cleaner, the start of the day a little easier on a Monday after a Bills Victory…and yesterday was an epic opener! Our Buffalo Bills survived a shoot-out with the Houston Texans 36 – 31! Josh Allen and the revamped offense were throwing the ball all over the field, capped off by a laser dart that few NFL QB’s could make, to Joshua Palmer for a 34-yard TD. That score put the Bills up by 5, but was there too much time left? I certainly thought, um…probably? ☹ But Greg Rouseau, who may have had his best game of his career, stepped up and made a strip sack….game over, Bills Win, and a packed house at Bennett’s went nuts! Shout outs to Josh who finished the day with 334 passing yards, two passing TD’s and 2 rushing TD’s…Dalton Kincaid (please let him stay healthy all year), who had a monster day with 130 yards receiving, the new #1 receiver, DJ Moore, who opened up the field like we haven’t seen in a few years, and had 100 yards receiving and a TD, and Joshua Palmer who split the seam and hauled in a perfect 34 yard pass from Josh to score the game winner. On defense, as mentioned earlier, Greg Rouseau was huge with 2 sacks for fumbles. Let’s hope he can deliver that type of game a lot more consistently this year. And, one last shout out to Joe Brady…he gets the win in his first game, and I loved the play calling. The Bills kept the “pedal to the metal” all game long. If they can score 36 against what many people were saying was the best defense in the league, this could be a fun ride this season. On the negative side, or should I say, needs work? The Bills DB’s and safeties were beaten quite a bit and at times looked out of position. While the refs seemed to want to call every touch foul imaginable, the DB’s had far too many holding calls. They need to clean that up, but it’s only one game. Let’s see what Jim Leanord does in the coming weeks, but we may be in more shootouts if the DB’s don’t improve.

Also, before the game started, we were made aware of a youngster named Gabe. He lives in West Milton, is a big Bills fan, and is battling cancer. We sent him this video to show him we’re with him and per his mom, it really made his day 😊 Here’s that video

Next up, a Thursday night game in Buffalo to open the new stadium against the Detroit Lions. Should be a great match up. Bennett’s will be showing the game, of course, but we normally don’t get big crowds for night games. Come on out if you can, and as always…

Go Bills!!!

Hey Gang,

It's finally upon us! Our Buffalo Bills will begin their annual pilgrimage to reach the ultimate goal...a Super Bowl victory! Will this finally be the year? Lots of high praise coming their way from the "experts", and while I hope they're right, the schedule and key injuries are my two biggest fears/concerns this season. My fingers and toes are crossed though, and it all begins this Sunday at 1:00 against the Houston Texans. The Bills always seem to struggle against this team, so this is a great test, right out of the gate. I hope to see everyone at Bennett's in Miamisburg. Anyone new on this email chain, Bennett's is located at 67 S Main St in downtown Miamisburg. We gather in a separate room that holds about 90 people. I'm anticipating a packed house, so if you want to be in our room, try and get there early. If the room is full, Bennett's has about 200 other seats in the main dining room, and bar area, and the Bills game will be on in there as well, but not with the sound up.

A little tidbit for this year....one of our members, Maria, works at, and basically runs Jimmy's Italian Kitchen, located at 3002 Woodman Drive in Kettering. I stopped in for lunch a few weeks back, and she let me know that every Monday after a Bills game, a group of Bills fans come in for lunch. They call it "Victory Monday", but they show up, win or lose. I'm going to plan on going there every Monday that I can, and if you'd like to come, the food is great!

Go Bills!!!!
