It’s the scariest day of the year. Nope, not Halloween. It’s the NFL trade deadline. The clock is ticking fast and we have less than an hour left. Each team is making last-minute gambles. Hits and Misses? Well, only Father Time has the answer to that. But no one is leaving any stone unturned. Whether it’s chasing the next season or making a comeback in this one. Each team is loading their arsenal. Because moving forward, the going is about to get tough. BUFFALO BILLS’ LAST-MINUTE GAMBLE: STRENGTHENING THE D-LINE But you know what they say, right? ‘When the going gets tough, the tough get going.‘ Just like clockwork, the Buffalo Bills [https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/nfl/buffalo-bills/] are pulling major roster moves to maintain their current mojo. After all, the Bills rank 2nd in the AFC East, at a score of 5-3 in week 8. The Buffaloes are currently flying high after a 24-18 beat down of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers [https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/nfl/tampa-bay-buccaneers/]. And further increasing their deadly roster, the Bills have acquired Defensive Back Rasul Douglas all the way from the Cheese Nation. Yep, the Green Bay Packers [https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/nfl/green-bay-packers/] had put Douglas on the market for back-end help, and looks like the Bills snatched the deal while it was on the table. Not just that, the Packers also traded another fifth-round pick to the Bills for a third-round pick, with the deal being finalized mere minutes before the trade deadline. DE Montez Sweat To Bears [https://www.essentiallysports.com/nfl-trade-deadline-magic-johnsons-washington-commanders-to-nfl-active-news-trade-de-montez-sweat-to-bears/] Taking to social media platform ‘X’, NFL sleuth Ian Rapoport shared the announcement, with the caption, “From The Insiders on #NFLPlus: The #Packers [https://twitter.com/hashtag/Packers?src=hashtag_click] traded DB Rasul Douglas to the #Bills [https://twitter.com/hashtag/Bills?src=hashtag_click], who had been in the market for back-end help.” Watch This Story: Days After the Praise From His NFL Coach, Jonathan Owens Takes Gymnastics GOAT Simone Biles on a Gourmet Spree [https://www.essentiallysports.com/stories/us-sports-news-days-after-the-praise-from-his-nfl-coach-jonathan-owens-takes-gymnastics-goat-simone-biles-on-a-gourmet-spree/]

<h2 style="text-align: center">Buffalo Bills 2022: News, Schedule, Roster, Score, Injury Report</h2>
<p style="text-align: center">The Buffalo Bills were founded in 1960 as a charter member of the American Football League (AFL) and joined the ranks of the NFL in 1970 following the NFL-AFL merger. They are the only NFL club that plays its home games in the state of New York. The franchise is owned by Terry and Kim Pegula who picked up the majority ownership tag following the death of the original owner Ralph Wilson back in 2014.</p>
<img class="aligncenter wp-image-497552 size-full" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/20201230195043/buffalo.jpg" alt="" width="1920" height="1080" />
<p style="text-align: center">The franchise won two AFL championships back in 1964 and 1965, and these chips stand as the only major professional sports championships from a team representing Buffalo. Chiefly, the Bills found heightened success between 1990 and 1993 when they appeared in a record-setting four straight Super Bowls. However, they would go on to lose all four games.</p>
<p style="text-align: center">This unparalleled success was followed by a meaningful active playoff drought making them the last NFL franchise and the last in the four major leagues to qualify for a post-season in the 21<sup>st</sup> century. The club seems to have found its footing under Head Coach Sean McDermott however, the Bills still remain the only AFC East team to have never won a Super Bowl.</p>
<img class="aligncenter wp-image-497555 size-full" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/20201230195135/flagrancy.jpg" alt="" width="1000" height="600" />
<p style="text-align: center">The 2020 campaign of the Buffalo Bills was a resounding success as they improved on their 2019 record of 10-6 by finishing off the regular season with a 13-3 run placing 1st in the AFC East. The Bills beat the Colts 27-24 in the Wild Card Playoffs as well as the Divisional Round against the Baltimore Ravens 17-3.</p>
<p style="text-align: center">However, the Bills lost the AFC championships match-up to the Kansas City Chiefs 24-28 and faltered to turn in a trip to the Super Bowl.</p>

<h2 style="text-align: center">Logo</h2>
<p style="text-align: center">The current logo for the Bills is a blue leaping buffalo with a red beam running down the middle. This has been the franchise logo since 1974. Turning back the clock, the Bills original logo depicts two football players sunning alongside several buffaloes. This logo lasted from 1960 to 1961 and was subsequently changed in 1962.</p>

<p style="text-align: center">The next logo depicts a brown football encompassing a Bills Player running beside a buffalo. The next change came in 1970 and led up all the way up to the modern iteration. The 1970-1973 logo saw the Bills adopt an all-red silhouette of a standing buffalo facing right.</p>
