Her hat alerted two other Bills fans that she was one of them.’

Bills receiver Curtis Samuel hopes playoff production portends a better 2025 season
‘“You would have loved for him to get off to a faster start,” Beane conceded. “It was nice to see once he got healthy down the stretch, that we started utilizing him and his speed.

Sometimes that takes a little time – you’d love to when you roll the ball out September 1st that they’re ready to roll, but it doesn’t always happen that way.”’

Why the Buffalo Bills should aggressively pursue trade for Browns’ Myles Garrett
‘The Chiefs hadn’t scored 30 points in a game all season before last week’s AFC Championship. Buffalo even held Kansas City to 20 points back in November, but when it mattered most, the Bills couldn’t stop Patrick Mahomes. Part of the problem was a lack of consistent pass rush. The Bills sacked Mahomes twice, which was an improvement. They only managed one sack each in the previous three playoff games against Mahomes.’
