Hoping bluer skies make greener grasses. Sports and news and food and stuff. 📍Buffalo
Myles Garrett has 20 sacks. That's more than the Ravens (19), Panthers (18) and 49ers (16) entire teams.

He has the NFL single-season record in sight with four games to go (officially it's 22.5, unofficially it's 23). The Browns finish with the Bears, Bills, Steelers and Bengals.

If you think the Colts are toast without Daniel Jones, then we might be looking at our AFC playoff teams.

BAL could catch PIT but it looks like a one-spot division. HOU can pass JAX but both look likely to make it.

A Bills matchup with AFCN winner in WC wouldn’t be too shabby.

The Buffalo Bills scored 65 points in their last two games.

All of their wide receivers combined had 12 catches for 101 yards 🤔

Most yards: Gabe Davis, 26
Most receptions: Keon Coleman, 4

The Bills just put up an ALL TIME rushing performance against the Steelers — with both starting tackles out.

249 rushing yards is the second-most for a road team in Pittsburgh in the Super Bowl era and the most in the Steelers’ current stadium. #billsmafia  #steelers

Big game this week
November 24, 2025 at 4:45 PM
The Bills have committed 3 turnovers in 3 straight games.

For all of the terrible offense we watched during The Drought ... the Bills haven't had a longer streak since 1986. #billsmafia

The wild card race has more variables but basically boils down to keep winning. The Bills can clinch on their own without any help.

The Pittsburgh game could be big. BUF has tiebreak on KC and BAL, but lost it to HOU last night.
November 21, 2025 at 6:30 PM
Do I expect all that to happen? No. But that doesn't mean it can't. If you want something to root for, here are the steps:

- Bills gain at least 2 games on NE
- Bills beat NE on the road on 12/14
- NE loses another division game

It's crazy, but not unheard of.
November 21, 2025 at 6:30 PM
Then we'd go to conference record.

If BUF wins out to finish 13-4, AND NE finishes 4-2 with losses to BUF & NYJ/MIA…

Both teams would be 13-4, 1-1 head to head, 10-2 against common opponents... and the Bills would be 9-3 vs the AFC, NE would be 8-4.

Bills would win division.
November 21, 2025 at 6:30 PM
The third tiebreaker is record against common opponents. The Bills are actually not as bad there as you might think.

Because we're already assuming a Pats loss to NYJ/MIA just to get to this step, they could feasibly tie in common games at 10-2.
November 21, 2025 at 6:30 PM
Let's start with the easiest *mathematical* way for the Bills to catch NE and get that out of the way first.

If the Bills win 3 more games than Patriots the rest of the way, they pass them.

Simple math, extremely unlikely in practice. The Patriots finish with a soft schedule.
November 21, 2025 at 6:30 PM
Are the Bills cooked in the division? Is their run of 5 straight AFC East titles over?

They're 2 games back with 6 to go. It's not looking good. But I dug into the tiebreakers & there is a way.

Is it unlikely? Of course. But so is the Patriots being 9-2. Weird things can happen 🧵 #billsmafia

With his three rushing touchdowns last week, Josh Allen passed Earl Campbell, Ezekiel Elliott and LeSean McCoy on the NFL's career list.

Allen now ranks 26th all time in rushing TDs (75), tied with Cam Newton for most ever by a QB in the regular season. He is 29. #billsmafia
November 20, 2025 at 2:03 PM
The Patriots have won 8 straight and have a soft schedule to finish. They're in the driver's seat to win the AFC East.

For the Bills, besides winning their remaining matchup, the next best thing is for NE to lose division games. That's the second second tiebreaker. Will NYJ/MIA be checked out?
November 18, 2025 at 2:19 PM
Long way to go, but the Bills playoff picture is coming into focus.

BUF is 2 games up on teams just outside the Wild Card, and beating HOU on TNF would give them the tiebreak over all 5-5 teams. Going 4-2 after that would clinch.

NE is 1.5 up in the division. Their 12/14 game is huge. #billsmafia
November 18, 2025 at 2:16 PM
No Kincaid. No Coleman. No catches for Hardman. Shakir finished in the negatives.

And yet … Josh Allen still goes over 300 yards.

The return of the downfield passing game was a beautiful sight. #BillsMafia
November 16, 2025 at 9:22 PM
Another record for Josh Allen: He now has the most games in NFL history with 3 passing touchdowns and 2 rushing touchdowns.

1. Josh Allen 3
2. Kordell Stewart 2
3. Several with 1

The Bills are 4-2 under Sean McDermott the week after losing when they were favored by a touchdown or more.

2023 might provide some similarities: After a bad road loss to a division opponent, the Bills came home to face Baker Mayfield’s Bucs – and won behind a big game from Gabe Davis. #billsmafia
November 16, 2025 at 12:37 PM
Can't believe we're already doing this but the #Sabres need to go 40-24-1 (or equivalent) over their final 65 games to reach 95 points. Feels steep.

The time to make a move (or moves) is now. 8 more games this month and 19 before holiday break. It's getting late soon. You've won 5 of 17. It's time.
November 14, 2025 at 10:11 PM
Not only did the Bills lose, but the Patriots, Dolphins and Jets all won.

Just the third time in Josh Allen's career the Bills lost and all the division opponents won on the same day. Last time was 11/6/22 in a loss to Zach Wilson's Jets, a week before the infamous Vikings game.
November 9, 2025 at 11:50 PM
The Bills have won 7 consecutive games against the Dolphins, and 14 of the last 15.

A win today would set a Bills franchise record for the longest winning streak against their once-hated rival. #billsmafia
November 9, 2025 at 5:57 PM
Insane list: Only four players in NFL history scored 6+ rushing touchdowns in each of their first eight seasons.

🏈 Jim Brown
🏈 Marshall Faulk
🏈 LaDainian Tomlinson
🏈 Josh Allen

Three Hall of Famers and the MVP.

Major tip of the cap to the Blue Jays.

The Dodgers spent a bajillion dollars and rolled out a Martian and multiple MVPs and Cy Youngs. The Jays countered with Vlad and some fast guys who can’t hit and some dudes from Triple-A and my plumber and took them to the wire. Respect 🫡 #WorldSeries
