  • Was Lindy Ruff The Right Sabres Choice?

    Was Lindy Ruff The Right Sabres Choice?
    May 3 2024
    On this episode of Talking Patrick, Patrick Moran discusses with friend and recurring guest Tone Pucks whether new/once again Buffalo Sabres head coach was the right person to get tasked with putting an end to the team's historic playoff drought in addition to a conversation about the general direction of the team. Tone was on the show yesterday when the discussion centered on if the Buffalo Bills look like a team that's still going to be good in 2024. Today it's almost entirely about the Sabres. Following a 13th consecutive season of missing the playoffs, not only an extension of their own record but tying the New York Jets for the longest in major pro sports, Terry Pegula fired Don Granato and within a week Ruff was hired to once again take over. The guys talk about if have a problem with a wider coaching net not being cast before landing on Ruff as well as how much of the hire is about hockey and how much to perhaps help win back fans. There's also plenty to talk about with the team in general. Despite nearly everyone saying it's not going to happen, Tone is still convinced that the Sabres are going to end up getting rid of Jeff Skinner this summer, whether that comes through buy out or a trade and even uses an interesting Bills situation as a baseline for comparison. He also has thoughts on Matthew Fairburn recently saying on this show Dylan Cozens could eventually become a captain on this team in addition to thoughts on trading Casey Mittelstadt rather than paying him long term, not having a rush to get anyone in the pipeline onto the main roster and plenty more.

  • How Good Are The 2024 Buffalo Bills Right Now?

    How Good Are The 2024 Buffalo Bills Right Now?
    May 2 2024
    On this episode of Talking Buffalo, Patrick Moran's joined in studio by friend and recurring guest Tone Pucks for a conversation on a handful of topics, including how good they think the 2024 Buffalo Bills are internally and compared to the rest of the league now that the NFL draft has passed. It's certainly been an eventful offseason for the Bills---one which has seen significant change. Gone are several veterans and leaders such as Mitch Morse, Tre White, Jordan Poyer, Michael Hyde and Gabe Davis. Of course, the Bills also traded top receiver Stefon Diggs to the Houston Texans for 2025 draft capital. They've also added free agent talent to the team such as Curtis Samuel, Mike Edwards and Austin Johnson in addition to their draft class highlighted by Keon Coleman and Cole Bishop. It feels like on paper it's clear they've taken a step back--but is that the reality? The guys both have a variety of opinions on how this team looks as presently constructed and how they stack up against their peers around the league. That plus the Boulevard Mall has shut down, learning that a high school football & baseball coach from nearly 35 years ago is still alive and well---and plenty more.

  • How Much Does Keon's Coleman's Personality Matter?

    How Much Does Keon's Coleman's Personality Matter?
    May 1 2024
    Today on Talking Buffalo, Patrick Moran is debuting a newly titled segment called "Pod Synergy" in which the narrative of the episode is completely controlled by takes and questions submitted by listeners and viewers of the show. Previously this was called "Fan Friday" but guess what---- it's not a Friday and when these episodes will drop will vary so we're going with a name change. Featured today are several comments/questions from fans about the Buffalo Bills and the recent NFL draft, including a really good question asking how much of a factor, if any was the selection of Keon Coleman in the second round based on his personality and the type of relationship the organization expects Coleman to have with with Josh Allen. It's certainly a fair point to ponder as it became apparent that what many perceived as the premature trading of Stefon Diggs to the Houston Texans was based in part on a relationship with Josh that may have deteriorated. Obviously Brandon Beane isn't going to make that high of a selection based purely on personality but to say it didn't matter would probably be a lie as well. Also, what specifically did Patrick most like and not like about the Bills draft? What incumbent Bills players were the biggest winners and losers of this latest Buffalo draft haul? Who were the biggest draft steals around the league? That plus thoughts on Lindy Ruff, a friend of Patrick's considering him smug and much more today. These fan narrative controlled "Pod Synergy" episode will air semi-regularly with no set dates but you can typically expect them on Wednesdays. ♦♦♦♦♦ Follow Patrick Moran/Talking Buffalo Podcast Substack: Patrick Moran’s Substack Twitter: @PatMoranTweets.
