‘But through three games in 2025? Yeah, Kincaid looks to be back to his old form, already totaling 151 yards and two touchdowns from 13 receptions, to have the same number of receiving touchdowns as he did for the entirety of last season.’

This date in Bills stadium history: Sept. 22
‘1974 — Dolphins 24, Bills 16 — After upsetting the Raiders in the home opener the previous Monday night, the Bills had a letdown against the repeat Super Bowl champions. O.J. Simpson’s early fumble led to Bob Griese’s 100th career touchdown pass, and the Dolphins never trailed after that. Miami had lost its opening game following the undefeated ’73 season, but got running back Mercury Morris and linebacker Nick Buoniconti back in the lineup for the trip to Rich Stadium, where attendance exceeded 80,000. Morris had 88 yards rushing and a touchdown that made it 21-3 in the fourth quarter. Ahmad Rashad recovered a fumble in the end zone for one of the Bills’ scores, and Joe Ferguson threw a late TD pass to J.D. Hill.’
Bills Mafia’s heroic act credited with saving fan’s life
‘“I was absolutely watching all signs of life fade from my father’s face, and I truly thought he was absolutely gone,” Candice said.;
Bills’ Joe Brady aims to frustrate opponents; Bobby Babich reviews third-down defense
‘“I think you want to be an explosive offense, so you got to be able to push the ball on the field. I think that’s a given, but I think Josh is doing an elite job right now of, if it’s not there, checking it down, finding the open, getting our guys RAC and be able to convert first downs.”’
Bills Mailbag: When suspended players return, who will lose playing time?
‘Defensive end Javon Solomon played just nine snaps against the Dolphins, so he would be the first player who comes to mind who might struggle to crack the game day lineup when Hoecht and Ogunjobi return. The Bills had just eight defensive linemen active against the Dolphins, but I’d expect that number to bump up to at least nine when Oliver is healthy and Hoecht and Ogunjobi return.’
Former player or fan? As Fitz says goodbye to the stadium, the lines have ‘blurred’
‘Fitzpatrick has been to Buffalo a couple of times for playoff games in recent years, and those visits have become part of Bills fandom lore.’
This week in Buffalo food: Where do Canadian fans watch the game? This backyard ‘helmet bar’
‘The Parnhams are a family of dedicated Bills fans − sons Blake and Nick Parnham were each swaddled in a Bills blanket upon birth − in a community that leans toward the Bills if they follow American football. The bar came to be because Rick Parnham, who goes by Helmet Bar Dad, was known by friends and colleagues as the Bills guy. When a local mall needed to get rid of a 12-foot-tall Bills helmet that had been used to cover a checkout counter, Parnham was who they called.’
After the 3-0 start, here are the Bills who have impressed and those who have not
‘CB Christian Benford: He entered the season considered the Bills far-and-away top cover man and a rising star in the NFL, but he’s had a rather uneven start. He has allowed a reception into his primary coverage area on 11 of 17 targets for 131 yards and three TDs. There was a school of thought that teams would not bother testing Benford because there were other weak spots in the defense to attack, but that hasn’t been the case as the next-most targeted player is nickel CB Taron Johnson with nine.’
It was a dream decades in the making as longtime Bills fan flies 2K miles for first game
‘Hale, an Arizona native, grew up watching Bills games in a Bills backer-type bar in Chandler, southeast of Phoenix, started by a couple from Buffalo in 1979 who served up Buffalo-style chicken wings with blue cheese. His family has been in Arizona “longer than the Cardinals have” and are a mixed bag when it comes to team loyalty. Mom is a Dallas Cowboys fan; dad would rather watch college football. The Bills have a hold on one of Hale’s uncles.’
The unsung Bills player who quietly earned top-5 PFF grades on offense and special teams against Dolphins
‘Buffalo’s offensive line graded out well against the Dolphins, but the guard play of David Edwards and O’Cyrus Torrence stood out.’
Dalton Kincaid is back to being a game-changer in the Buffalo Bills offense
‘And while the lasting image for Bills fans over the last seven months has been their former first-round pick dropping the ball, both literally and figuratively, the Utah product has shown early in the season that he is back to being a game-changer for the Bills’ offense.’
Upon Further Review: James Cook proving to be one of NFL’s elite running backs
‘It’s entirely possible that the four-year contract extension Cook signed during training camp that could pay him up to $46 million will one day come to be looked at as an underpay – if it’s not viewed that way already.’
Bills have work to do in lowering Joey Bosa’s snap count
‘Bosa played a whopping 87% of the defensive snaps in the Bills’ 31-21 victory at Highmark Stadium, lining up on 53 of 61 defensive snaps.’
Sean McDermott: Third-down defense a point of emphasis for Bills following Miami game
‘“Those are situations that the defense – you want to be a good defense? You shut them down right there,” McDermott said. “And the drive goes no further. Last night, we had an opportunity to blitz, free runner. They make a play, right? So, we can learn from that. We can learn from when we get from the rush and coverage piece working better together. So, there’s a lot we can take from that set of plays last night.”’
Buffalo Bills OC explains lack of deep passes against Miami Dolphins
‘“(The Dolphins) do a unique job of (playing) a bunch of versions of split safety–showing, and then dropping out, getting a lot of depth,” Brady explained. “(They’re) Trying to put an umbrella to the defense. And that’s not to say that there’s not plays out there that are to be had in those situations.”’
