About this listen
In this Week 11 episode, Eric and Josh Reed break down where the Buffalo Bills truly stand after a turbulent stretch — from the high of the Chiefs win to the sting of the Miami loss — and look ahead to a critical matchup against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
Eric dives deep into what’s gone wrong with the Bills’ passing game, the challenges of developing young receivers, how Dalton Kincaid’s injury changes the offensive structure, and why Buffalo may need to lean into a mix of tempo, spread looks, and a more run-focused identity to get back on track.
On defense, the guys discuss the return of key playmakers, the emergence of rookies like Max Hairston and Cole Bishop, and why Buffalo’s youth movement on that side of the ball may be the team’s biggest source of optimism heading into the back half of the season.
They also touch on the Mecole Hardman signing, Shaq Thompson’s impact, Baker Mayfield’s competitiveness, and whether Brian Daboll could ever reunite with Buffalo down the road.
Topics include:
🏈 The Bills’ passing-game struggles — disjointed timing, lack of separation, and how injuries have reshaped the offense
🏈 Why Dalton Kincaid’s absence forces Buffalo to rethink personnel, targets, and play-design
🏈 Whether Buffalo should lean harder into the run game or spread it out with more 11 personnel
🏈 How tempo and simplified looks could spark Josh Allen and the offense
🏈 The Mecole Hardman signing — special teams impact and potential offensive role
🏈 Return of defensive pieces: Shaq Thompson, TJ Sanders, and what it means for the unit
🏈 Growth of young defenders — Max Hairston, Cole Bishop, Deon Walker — and how they’re shaping the Bills’ future
🏈 How the Bills should attack Tampa Bay’s blitz-heavy defense
🏈 Baker Mayfield vs Josh Allen — competitiveness, style, and why Baker is easy to root for
🏈 Could Brian Daboll ever return to Buffalo? Eric weighs in📺 Originally aired Fridays on WIVB+ in Western New York
