Patrick Moran is joined by Joe From Queens for another entertaining, opinionated, and occasionally completely off-the-rails episode of Talking Buffalo!

The Buffalo Bills are preparing for a Monday Night Football matchup against the Minnesota Vikings, but much of the conversation centers on the enormous pressure facing general manager Brandon Beane ahead of the NFL trade deadline.

Patrick makes it clear that Buffalo desperately needs help at safety and believes standing pat could prove disastrous when the playoffs arrive. The guys debate potential trade targets, whether the Bills should consider moving a young cornerback, and just how aggressive Beane should be in trying to improve the defense.

They also examine Buffalo’s AFC playoff competition, including the Kansas City Chiefs, Cincinnati Bengals, Jacksonville Jaguars, and Denver Broncos, while discussing what New England’s loss means for the AFC East race.

Plus, Joe shares behind-the-scenes stories about landing exclusive interviews with legendary broadcaster Bob Costas and Houston Texans general manager Nick Caserio.

And, of course, there’s plenty of hilarious banter about Patrick’s wardrobe spreadsheet, social media roasting, Costco, chicken finger reviews, and much more!
