Joe kills it. He’s seriously the best on the beat. Please keep bringing fire every week!

Joe - long time Athletic subscriber, really like the views you, Tim and Matthew provide. The Athletic is a refreshing offset to local outlets and team owned media. But in my opinion your postgame podcast (and others sometimes) is too meandering, with not enough actual game analysis.

What kind of nonsense is this?

Joe, welcome back and congrats on the little guy. I’m sure that is some fun and wild times with your first. I had to say it was welcome to hear you back on the pod. Fairburn was a great fill-in, but you have such insight and a feel for this team. Your delivery is smooth even with the first time...Read full review »

It’s funny to hear these two wanna be experts opine on the 3rd string right guard and what taron Johnson did once on that one play...meanwhile they have zero clue on how boring they are especially when giving an hour long opinion on COVID or social justice...these two white bread warriors try to...Read full review »

Content gives a different perspective - with valuable nuggets (eg Hyde potentially returning for end of 2022 season). On the negative side, this pod isn’t updated super frequently in the offseason. Would benefit from a cohost.

Joe B is one of the best. He’s not a fan of the Bills, which I think is a good thing…very fair and balanced and does a good job of predicting bills moves. I do think he needs a regular partner again as he was excellent with Fairborn and, to a lesser extent, Bove. It’s a five star podcast if he...Read full review »

The pod is awesome The commercials are awful Especially the ones from BETMGM Awful!
Miggy Francisco via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/21/22
Not everything has to be sunshine and rainbows, but holy cow. This was so negative that I turned on the news. Wow.
Nottollhouse via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/28/22
This podcast could be great, but yet again an apathetic Bostonian is in my ears. This time telling us about how poorly the Bills handled a tough situation. If Fairburn is back, I’m gone and I’ll unsubscribe from the Athletic.
MBelcher15 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/30/22
I didn’t know how to rate this podcast. It is written for the last when Alaina was a guest. I really, really like this podcast, but when there is a guest such as Alaina Gatzenberg from ESPN, it was painful to listen to. I’m a woman. I think woman should be included more in the industry, but ONLY...Read full review »

Really enjoy this podcast. But I’m getting really frustrated listening to Matthew Fairburn come on during patriots week and talk about how horrible the bills are, and how great the pats are. That’s twice now that I had to turn the pod off both times. This dude got his start on this podcast, and...Read full review »

The Bills Beat is the best podcast out there if you want informed, professional opinions and analysis.
Dan Sawran via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/29/21
Love your show but find it often too negative. It is a matter of half glass full or half glass empty. You often tend to focus on the glass half empty. You do need to point out growth areas but often you do not give kudos when deserved.
Prez Emeritus via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/04/21
Great Podcast that is professional and well done. Wxcellent insight. Go Bills!
AroryborealisMT via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/28/21
Matthew F is great in his interview columns, always insightful and he adds that to his podcasts. Joe B is like the rain man bills fan in all of us, he really gets in there when looking at film. His in season match up takes are aosi very good.
Super_Nerd00 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/29/21
Joe and Matthew are consummate pros and do a fantastic job. Keep up the great work. The only thing I’d criticize about the podcast is sometimes Joe’s mic level peaks out and gets a harsh distortion (especially when he gets excited). Fix that and the podcast is perfect. Thanks for all the great...Read full review »

Two of the better writers on the Bills beat. Good insights and some solid “inside baseball” type nuggets from being in the locker room and around the players. I do think that in a misguided effort to stay objective, they go out of their way to be critical or negative.
Dad Bod Runner via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/20/21
Matthew and Joe B...enough said. Top notch reporters and analysts.

Re: most recent show on offseason, how about a RUNNING GAME!?!? (I’m only a few minutes in)
Bills in the Hills via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/12/21
Awesome show guys. Keep it up.

This is the go to bills podcast. These guys are very knowledgeable, the way to get your bills information

Unlistenable
joereallyishorrible via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/19/20
These two are experts on the Bills and all aspects of the pro game. Their access to the team and experience on the beat provides incredible insight. Love reading them on The Athletic and getting updates on this pod. They also bring a great element of humor. I never miss an episode!
Pat 607 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/13/20
2 of the very best of the Bills beat reporters. Their podcast does an excellent job of incorporating deep dives into the decison making and game analysis of this team. If you are a Bills fan or just an NFL fan in general, I highly recommend it.
Norton20 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/12/20
Initially I really liked this Pod. Love Joe B, and his knowledge on all things. After listening thru draft, training camp and now 11 games in the 2020 season I’m not sure I can make thru he whole year. Listening to Matt F, you’d think they’re 3-9 not 9-3. OMG, mono tone voice, no excitement and...Read full review »

After this weeks episode I am unsubscribing. Coming out of a bye week during a season that we can win the division and all you talk about is the off-season?! What a joke. Gabriel Davis is not as good as John Brown. Releasing him just allows Diggs to be double teamed.
Poundin' Beers McSlammington via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/28/20
Did you guys watch the game? Your analysis is usually spot on but you seemed to miss that the weather was terrible for passing, Davis dropped a long Td pass in the end zone and the interception was the fault of Diggs.
BillsR01 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/02/20
Change the title please. Love your stuff normally guys but for goodness sake there is more to the 53 then Fromm. We get the point about him, the horse is dead, you can stop beating it.
a zullinger via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/09/20
Thanks for some honest opinions about Beane and mcDermott treatment of Jake Fromm! Thanks for finding the balance of journalism and not falling for the charm of Bills management! Go Bills and good journalism! 👊🏾✊🏿
Nigelyum via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/08/20
This pod is going in the wrong direction. It’s been overtaken by cynicism and recently has had a dour negative tone. They’ve been constantly harping and speculating on negative what ifs. You’d think this was a team coming off a losing record. You guys were more positive when they were losing! I...Read full review »

I always enjoy the content. These guys really know the Bills!

Pod good
Not the Fake PLo via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/10/20
The content is very good when they talk about actual team-related topics. It’s better than any other Bills podcast I’ve come across. However they spend way too much time talking about the stupid and irrelevant views that fans espouse on social media, which have nothing to do with what actually...Read full review »

Missing Joe these past few weeks. Hope he comes back soon!
mloff23 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/24/20
The Bills Beat is my go to Buffalo Bills podcast- has been for years. Never miss an episode! Joe and Matt present insightful takes and thoughtful discussion on all things Bills related. Bonus points go to co-host Matt Fairburn, who like many of us (aka The Silent Majority) believe that Blaine...Read full review »

I never miss Joe and Matt each week on the BB. This episode week was one of the best since the draft. Evaluating who get paid has so many twist and turns. You guy did a great job. It will be extremely interesting to see how thing may work out in the next couple of years.

Joe and Matt deliver a top notch look at everything Bills-related. Always the first podcast I listen to.
BigBruceFan via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/27/20
These guys are professionals that do bills coverage full time and you can tell.
BattlecarCompactica via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/17/20
Listen to every episode. Great insight and analysis on the Bills. - Toronto
JH-TO via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 04/15/20
Used to love listening to this show. Can’t make it through a show anymore. These guys have become more arrogant every year.
nels57 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/10/20
Always so informative and level headed.
