Brandon Beane emotional discussing Bills Mafia (video)

Buffalo Bills GM Brandon Beane and head coach Sean McDermott on Buffalo Bills fans.

The Bills’ 2019 season came to an end last Saturday. Up 16 points, Buffalo lost 22-19 in overtime to the Houston Texans in the AFC Wild Card.

One thing that’s unquestionable is that the team’s general manager, Brandon Beane, isn’t happy about it. He was even emotional about the loss.

Beane and Buffalo head coach Sean McDermott got in front of the cameras on Tuesday for their end of season press conferences. The coach is used to it while the executive isn’t unfamiliar with it, but Beane doesn’t do it as much during the season.

Perhaps that’s why he cracked a little while discussing Bills fans, better known as Bills Mafia.

Opening his chat, Beane reflected on the players, organization and fans in a statement. That’s when Beane had to take a split second to keep it together.

“I’m just blown away by our fans,” Beane said. “I get emotional because I felt bad for [Bills fans]. I feel really bad that we didn’t win that game.”

Here’s video of Beane’s message to Bills Mafia along with McDermott’s:

Bills Mafia bought all of Houston’s folding tables (video)

Buffalo Bills Mafia bought all of the folding tables in the city of Houston.

In little surprise, Bills Mafia has invaded Houston ahead of their team’s game against the Texans.

Prior to the game, Labatt’s brew company announced wholesalers in the Houston area bought seven times the usual amount of their product in an effort to prepare for Bills fans.

Walmart did not follow suit.

Barstool Sports went through a local Houston area Walmart and guess what they’ve all sold out of?

Folding tables.

Houston is quite literally getting ready for Buffalo Bills fans with beer.

As the Bills traveled down to south Texas on Friday for their 4:30 p.m. kickoff on Saturday, so did many members of Bills Mafia. This week also involved a release from Labatt’s beer company.

The news release says wholesalers in the Houston area ordered seven times more stock of their products this week. Oddly enough, that so happens as plenty of Buffalonians and Canadian Bills fans will be heading to NRG Stadium for the Bills-Texans game.

The release cites the Bills-Titans game earlier this year when the Bills Mafia traveled notably well in Nashville. Labatt says their sales in the region jumped 980 percent then.

For those staying local, Labatt also wants to remind you that they are release a Bills-related pale ale called “Shout” this weekend ahead of the Bills game as well. It’ll be available at the Labatt brew house in Buffal as early as Friday with plenty in stock for the game.

Bills Mafia shows grace in face of ridiculous rant from Baltimore radio host

Insulting a member of the #BillsMafia is a dangerous ground to walk. Fans of the Bills will ride or die with their team, and they will do so if a member is attacked for no good reason. 

Insulting a member of the BillsMafia is a dangerous ground to walk. Fans of the Bills will ride or die with their team, and they will do so if a member is attacked for no good reason.

Calling out Del Reid, co-founder of the Bills Mafia and founder of 26 Shirts, is flatout blasphemy.

Yet, this is what Baltimore sports-talk host Jerry Coleman decided would be a good use of his time.

Coleman, who is heard on 105.7 The Fan in Baltimore, dedicated some time on his show this morning to insult, Reid and the city of Buffalo, which Coleman called a “city of losers.”

The initial discussion, which didn’t involve Coleman, started with a basic tweet from ESPN’s Trey Wingo. Wingo shared a list of possible NFL Coach of the Year candidates. Reid interjected about the omission of Bills head coach Sean McDermott.

Coleman, for some reason, felt the need to critique and insult the Bills fan base and city.

Here’s a clip of Coleman:

Coleman’s rant, uncalled for and unprofessional, lacked any sort of reasoning and more so, any purpose for the rant.

He referred to Reid as “some loser.” Later, Coleman added, “But the Bills Mafia is too stupid to realize when they’re down” in response to a weak tweet that he wrote. He capped off his illogical rant calling the Buffalo a “city of losers.”

How does the Bills community address this problem?

With poise, composure, and selflessness. The fan base decided to rise above the insults of an apparently insecure radio host.

Buffalo’s fanbase, in the same manner, that they did for the Andy and JJ Dalton Foundation in 2017, has decided to take positive action.

Even as Coleman tried to double down on his comments, Bills fans continued to show their goodwill, donating to the Alzheimer’s Foundation.

WATCH: Bills Mafia greets team at airport

Buffalo Bills fans greet team at airport following win over Pittsburgh Steelers.

Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen called his shot. After his team’s 17-10 win over the Pittsburgh Steelers on Sunday Night Football, he said fans would be at the airport to welcome to team home.

“It will be late, but knowing Bills Mafia, it won’t matter,” Allen said.

He was right.

In temperatures around 25 degrees plenty of folks in red, white and blue were at the Buffalo-Niagara International Airport to welcome the Bills home following their win.

Here’s some of the scenes from fans and players:

PODCAST: Bills underwhelm in 24-17 loss to Ravens

Kyle Silagyi is joined by McKenna Middlebrook to discuss the Buffalo Bills’ Week 14 loss to the Baltimore Ravens.

For the second consecutive week, the eyes of the collective football world were glued to a Buffalo Bills football game.

Only this time, the team failed to impress in a game that could’ve shifted national perception.

The contest was supposed to feature a battle between two of the league’s most exciting young quarterbacks. Instead, fans tuned into a defensive stalemate, a game in which neither Lamar Jackson or Josh Allen were able to construct strong outings.

It was ultimately Jackson’s Baltimore Ravens who got the upper hand, leaving New Era Field with an underwhelming 24-17 victory. On this episode of The Kyle Silagyi Variety Hour, host Kyle Silagyi is joined by BillsWire staff writer McKenna Middlebrook to discuss Buffalo’s Week 14 loss. They also talk about beards and Kyle’s pregame festivities.

Denver’s record may be a disappointing 3-7, but the team saw glimpses of promise in last weekend’s 27-23 loss to Minnesota on the road. Brandon Allen, making his second career start due to an injury to Joe Flacco, threw for 240 yards, one touchdown, and one interception. Running back Phillip Lindsay carried the ball for 67 yards and wide receiver Courtland Sutton hauled in five passes for 113 yards. It was the second time this season Sutton eclipsed the 100-yard mark. The Broncos had a 20 point lead before the Vikings came storming back. Denver took three shots at the end zone with the game nearing the end after converting three fourth downs on the drive, but couldn’t get the job done.

The Broncos defense was lights out in the first half but surrendered touchdowns on the Vikings four possessions following the half. The unit had five sacks and held Dalvin Cook to just 26 yards and one touchdown. Kirk Cousins was the difference maker though. He completed 29 of 35 passes for 319 yards and three touchdowns. The pass defense for the Broncos has been one of their stronger suits, as they were holding teams to an average of 210.3 YPG. Shelby Harris racked up three sacks in addition to five tackles in the game.

While the Broncos look to bounce back from a tough loss, the Bills are coming off an easy victory over the Miami Dolphins. Buffalo beat Miami, 37-20, in South Florida behind a four touchdown performance from quarterback Josh Allen. Allen totaled 256 yards in the air and three touchdowns. As a team, the Bills tallied 168 yards rushing and John Brown had nine receptions for a season-high 137 yards and two touchdowns.

The Bills defense is ranked third in points allowed, yards allowed and passing yards allowed. Against Miami, they sacked quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick seven times and held the Dolphins running game to 23 yards. Tremaine Edwards led the team with 12 tackles and half of a sack, while Matt Milano chipped in seven tackles and half of a sack.
