NFL.com editor says don’t jump off the Buffalo Bills bandwagon just yet

There’s still plenty to get excited about with the Buffalo Bills, however, after the team jettisoned many key figures from recent years and traded away their former top receiver, many fans are wondering just how good the 2024 version of the Buffalo is good. The bills will be. I have some thoughts on this, but I’ll tell you about them in a future article explaining why I still believe in the 2024 bills.

But I’m not the only one. Gennaro Filice is a staff writer for NFL.com. He recently wrote an article about the main fans fans should pay attention to, including players, coaches, and teams. In that article, he mentioned the Buffalo Bills, saying, “It’s been a tough 2024 for the Bills so far, but getting off the bandwagon seems premature.” He also added that despite the numerous losses on the roster, this team still has Josh Allen and coach Sean McDermott, who continues to field excellent defense year after year.

The Bills just finished their rookie minicamp and we got our first look at Buffalo’s first overall pick, Keon Coleman, who had a solid camp. Buffalo opens OTAs in a few weeks, May 20-June 6, followed by a mandatory veteran minicamp June 11-13. This will be our first look at the new team as a whole, as they begin their march towards training camp in July and the preseason schedule in August. It may seem like the season is light years away, but it will be here before you know it.

Let’s assume the Buffalo Bills continue their dominance of the AFC East and add a sixth straight trip to the playoffs. In this case, a few of last season’s role players will need to take on bigger roles in 2024, and some of the new faces, from free agency and the draft, will need to make an impact as well. However, the Buffalo Bills should be considered the favorites to repeat as division champions, until another team proves otherwise.
