Carve’s Call: Buffalo’s offensive line continues to be one of the league’s best
In Sunday’s 23-20 victory over the Cleveland Browns, the Buffalo Bills’ offensive line continued to show its dominance as the team rushed for 164 yards and surrendered just two sacks against a Myles Garrett-led defensive line.

Carve’s Call: Turnovers continue to crush the Buffalo Bills
In Thursday night’s 23-19 loss to the Houston Texans, the Buffalo Bills turned the football over three times and failed to force a turnover. Turning the football over is nothing new for Buffalo.

Carve’s Call: What should the Buffalo Bills do with Keon Coleman?
Keon Coleman served as a healthy inactive on Sunday after showing up late to a team meeting on Friday morning, according to NFL insider Adam Schefter.

Carve’s Call: Maxwell Hairston has the potential to reshape the Buffalo Bills’ defense
