Buffalo Bills season preview + week 1 predictions

THE BILLS ARE READY TO FINALLY WIN IT ALL IN 2026…JV is joined by Jerm from Stuff About Sports to break down everything Buffalo Bills fans need to know heading into the 2026 NFL season. The guys start with their biggest takeaways from Buffalo’s undefeated preseason, including how Joe Brady’s offense could evolve with DJ Moore stretching the field, Josh Allen playing more efficiently from the pocket, a deep tight end room creating mismatches, and Khalil Shakir, Keon Coleman, and the rest of the receiving corps settling into more natural roles. They also dive into Jim Leonhard’s new 3-4 defense, why Buffalo’s revamped defensive front could finally generate consistent pressure without relying heavily on the blitz, and whether additions like Bradley Chubb and the development of Greg Rousseau can fix one of the Bills’ biggest weaknesses from previous seasons. JV and Jerm then go game-by-game through Buffalo’s brutal 2026 schedule, predicting every matchup from Week 1 against Houston through the end of the regular season and ultimately landing on a 13-4 record. The guys also reveal their five biggest impact players for Buffalo this year, including Keon Coleman, DJ Moore, Greg Rousseau, the battle between Maxwell Hairston and Davison Igbinosun, and Dalton Kincaid, before discussing their biggest concerns surrounding Joe Brady’s transition to head coach, Buffalo’s lack of an elite pass rusher, and the depth at cornerback. Finally, they preview Buffalo’s Week 1 matchup against the Houston Texans, breaking down Dion Dawkins and Spencer Brown against Will Anderson Jr. and Danielle Hunter, Christian Benford’s matchup with Nico Collins, how Jim Leonhard can disrupt C.J. Stroud, and why Houston’s dominant defense could make Joe Brady’s debut an immediate test. With Josh Allen still leading the way and an improved supporting cast around him, JV and Jerm explain why expectations in Buffalo should once again be nothing short of competing for a Super Bowl.Timestamps:0:00 - Introduction0:53 - Bills Preseason Takeaways10:38 - Bills Game-By-Game Schedule Prediction21:34 - 5 Impact Players for 202627:41 - 3 Biggest Concerns for 202631:53 - Week 1 Preview + Predictions36:16 - How Jerm Became a Bills Fan📱 Follow The JV Show: https://linktr.ee/the.jv.show📱 Follow Term: https://www.youtube.com/GiveUsAShotNetwork#NFL #BuffaloBills #BillsMafia #JoshAllen #DJMoore #JoeBrady #GregRousseau #DaltonKincaid #KeonColeman #NFL2026 #BillsFootball #NFLPredictions #NFLPlayoffs #SuperBowl #NFLNews #NFLPodcast #TheJVShow
