Patrick Moran is joined by Joe From Queens for a discussion on factors that will help prevent a 2025 Buffalo Bills letdown as well as the overall frustration with the Buffalo Sabres on this episode of Talking Buffalo, recorded live from Imperial Pizza in South Buffalo.
Joe's in town so instead of doing the show remotely like usual, he's in person with Patrick for the first of two consecutive episodes this week. As has been the case since 2020, the Bills are going into another season among the betting favorites to win the Super Bowl. Obviously it hasn't happened yet and while this season feels like as good a chance as any, there's a handful of factors that will most help this vision of winning a championship come to fruition. The guys discuss a lot of them including the continued growth if not leaps this year from both Dalton Kincaid and Keon Coleman, getting key contributions from the three rookie defensive linemen Brandon Beane invested in, cornerback Max Hairston being ready to start early if not week one, continued good health on the offensive line and of course more MVP caliber play from quarterback Josh Allen.
Things aren't nearly as promising on the hockey side. The guys talk about how so many fans are done with Kevyn Adams and for good reason---it just feels like another offseason on the horizon where the team doesn't do what it takes to become an organization fans and the rest of the league take serious. That plus some comments from the peanut gallery, Joe's take on the wing sand much more.
The Talking Buffalo online merch store is now live! You can purchase t shirts, hoodies, zip ups, crewnecks and polos in a couple of different styles and colors. Visit our online page for pricing and options and while there, check out Buf on Weck for tons of cool gear!
Major props to Talking Buffalo sponsor, Sonny Red’s at 1841 Abbott Road in Lackawanna, just minutes from Highmark Stadium. We consider them THE most underrated spot for wings, pizza and other great food in Western New York plus it’s a great place to drink and have a great time. Also big thanks to Imperial Pizza and their two locations (1035 Abbott Road and 1655 Main Street), home of not only great pizza and tons of other delicious eats but also the best everyday lunch special in town.
Special thanks to local Buffalo band, Orange Zest for allowing us to use their awesome single, “Old Friends” as the new official intro music for Talking Buffalo.
