“It’s always so funny–the years that I’ve played there and Jim Kelly’s on the sideline and Andre Reed’s there. Bruce Smith is around. Thurman Thomas, you’d see a lot. I think that they have such a close community of people. It feels like a real football fraternity of guys who have played for the Bills,” Brady said. “They do rally around their teams.”

Later in the podcast, Bills quarterback Josh Allen, the special guest for this episode, shared his own thoughts on the Buffalo faithful. Allen obviously hasn’t “felt the wrath” of Bills Mafia like Brady has, so he’s passionate about the fanbase in a different but more appreciative way.

“What I feel is it’s a fanbase that, as Tom eluded to earlier, they love football,” Allen said. “They love the Bills. Mafia, I really think that’s a term for family. It is so family-oriented here, it reminds me so much of how I was born and raised in my hometown, in terms of everybody feels like they know everybody. It’s just one big community…

“It’s a fan base that’s starving to win a world championship. You can still feel the hurt, the energy, and passion that they still have for those teams.”

With Buffalo still competing for championships, Bills Mafia is still just as passionate about its beloved team.
