March 15, 2018By Patrick Moran

One day into free agency and we officially know the Buffalo Bills aren’t fuckin’ around.  The team had already traded Tyrod Taylor to the Cleveland Browns for the first pick of the third round (65th pick overall) in the upcoming NFL Draft on April 26th.

(Game Thoughts) Saints 47, Bills 10: Major Reality Check

November 12, 2017By Patrick Moran
