On this episode of Talking Buffalo, Patrick Moran is joined by Buffalo blogger and podcaster Chris Ostrander to discuss both the Buffalo Sabres and Bills, including trying to figure out what version of the Sabres are right now and if the Bills have officially become a bad road team.
The Sabres have become an incredibly streaky team and they've been riding a hot wave recently, winning four of their past five. They're just three points out of a wildcard as a result but also merely two points from being alone in the entire conference by themselves. Chris has plenty of thoughts on the good, bad and ugly of the team as it's now just past a quarter of the regular season gone. There's every bit of reason to have hope they can be a playoff team as a top five lottery team.
Meanwhile the Bills have lost three road games this season to three pretty average-to-bad quarterbacks. Buffalo faces what's suddenly become a borderline critical game on Sunday at Pittsburgh. The Bills are favored by Vegas in this game, but Patrick explains why he doesn't think they deserve to be. What does Chris think about what's going on with Buffalo and what realistically can change to send them on a path of having a realistic chance to come out of the AFC in January?
That and plenty more. Be sure to follow Chris on X at @2ITB_Buffalo and check out the Two in the Box blog in addition to the Instigator Podcast.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
