Doug Whaley, whom I have dubbed the “Architect” of the Buffalo Bills, in trying to bring a winning franchise to the city of Buffalo, has made much of the moves and acquisitions since being with Buffalo, that parallel the moves he made during his time in Pittsburgh. In Pittsburgh, the players that he was able to bring into the franchise, led to the Steelers winning two Super Bowl titles, while making 3 appearances during the decade of the 2000s. Comparing the players that he brought to the Steelers to those of the Bills, it seems that he is trying to repeat history, and end the longest playoff drought in the NFL. Here is a glimpse of the players that Whaley has brought to Buffalo, and their Pittsburgh counterpart.

Although the stars looked to align for the Buffalo Bills, the one remaining fact that had to be addressed was that the Bills had to win their final two games of the season versus the Oakland Raiders and the New England Patriots. The Bills fell to the Raiders 26-24 extending the longest playoff drought in the NFL at 15 seasons. The question remains is what happened to the Bills Sunday in Oakland? by Mario "Game" Granata
There were many eliminator pools that were busted this past Sunday as the Buffalo Bills pulled off an impressive victory over the Green Bay Packers, winners of five straight, 22-13 at the final game in Buffalo for the 2014 season. As many Bills fans enjoyed the rest of their Sunday, some were probably shaking their head at just how the Bills were able to ground the high-flying Packers. by Mario "Game" Granata
With the general consensus around Buffalo, after the showing that the Bills put in against the Broncos, being that the Green Bay Packers are going to come to One Bills Drive, and roll over the Bills, maybe there is a glimmer of home against the 2nd leg of Hall of Fame quarterbacks that Buffalo has to face in the final weeks of the season. The Packers are one, if not the, hottest teams in the NFL, clicking on all cylinders during the “4th quarter” of the season, but maybe, just maybe the Bills have a shot with the way that their defense has been playing. Here are some things to look for this Sunday. by Mario "Game" Granata
Well, the Buffalo Bills were able to accomplish one goal on the road to ending the longest playoff drought in the NFL, and that is to play a meaningful game in December. Leaving out the historical significance of playing on December 7th, the Bills were able to fall short of defeating one of the Super Bowl favorites in the Denver Broncos this past Sunday 24-17, but the 7 point loss is closer than the game would indicate. Here are a few observations from the game. by Mario "Game" Granata
Many are touting is as David vs. Goliath. Some are even comparing it to Rocky vs. Drago. However, the one thing that people fail to realize with those comparisons is that David and Rocky weathered the storm and we able to come out victorious. This is the task that the Buffalo Bills face, as they travel to Sports Authority Field, to take on the Super Bowl favorite, Denver Broncos. Now, even NFL experts such as Mark Schlereth are predicting a 100-0 Denver victory, however, what else would you expect in a match-up that sees the Bills as 10 point underdogs, and Schlereth, a former Bronco who has hoisted 2 Lombardi trophies in 1997 and 1998. This game has some interesting match-ups in and of itself that need a closer look to determine the final outcome. |
