The Bills are 3-0, but it wasn't pretty. Buffalo escaped with a 24-16 come-from-behind win over the Chargers despite turning the ball over 5 times. Before Sunday, teams won only 6 of 118 games with 5 turnovers over the past decade. We break down our Week 3 report cards, plus, what the Chargers did to shut down the Bills offense, and why the rest of the league will be studying it before New England comes to town.

The Bills drop their first game of the season, falling 29-26 to a banged-up Patriots team at Highmark Stadium, and everyone gets a D on this week's report card. We break down Josh Allen's arm arrogance on the game-ending interception and why he looks hurt, Joe Brady's play-calling and underused weapons, and a cornerback room running on fumes. Plus the roster moves Buffalo needs to make right now, and why it's time for Brandon Beane to push the chips to the middle of the table.

The Bills christened their new Highmark Stadium in style, beating the Lions 41-31 behind another dominant night from Josh Allen — including a wild sideline story about him playing through the flu. We hands out Week 2 report cards for Joe Brady's offense, Jim Leonhard's defense, special teams and Allen himself, break down a dominant defensive line performance overshadowed by more secondary struggles, and run through our Up and Down segment with standout games from James Cook, Dalton Kincaid, Greg Rousseu and more. Buffalo is 2-0 heading into a short break before hosting the Chargers.

It's Patriots week. The 3-0 Bills welcome a 1-2 New England team that's in shambles. Drake Maye's shoulder situation keeps getting stranger, the offense has scored just 36 points in three games, and the defense is coming to town without Christian Gonzalez and Christian Barmore. Mafia Matt breaks down why this is a nightmare matchup for Maye against Buffalo's pass rush, how Joe Brady can attack a banged-up Pats defense, and why this is close to a must-win for New England.

The Bills open their brand new Highmark Stadium on Thursday Night Football against Jared Goff and the Detroit Lions, fresh off a wild overtime win over the Saints. We break down the keys to the matchup — Buffalo's pass rush chasing a shaky Lions offensive line, a beat-up Detroit secondary that DJ Moore and Dalton Kincaid could feast on, and whether the Bills can find pressure on Goff after getting almost none in Week 1. Plus a score prediction for what could be a track meet, and the Week 2 Top 10 list.

The Bills kick off the 2026 season in Houston, a building that's given Buffalo nothing but nightmares the last two years. We break down what's changed on both sides of the ball, why this Texans defense doesn't need tricks to be great, and the matchups that'll decide whether Josh Allen finally walks out of Houston with a win. Plus, the first injury report of the season, a brand-new Top 10 countdown, and a final score prediction for Week 1.

Buffalo finally exorcised its Houston demons, hanging 36 points on the NFL's supposed best defense and picking up first-time head coach Joe Brady's first career win.

Plus, Week 1 report cards for offense, defense, special teams and Allen himself, and the first Up and Down segment of the season — headlined by a breakout game from Dalton Kincaid. Buffalo is 1-0 and heads home to open their new stadium Thursday night against the Lions.
