The 1960 Buffalo Bills season was the club's first season in the American Football League (AFL). Home games were played at War Memorial Stadium in Buffalo, New York. Head Coach Buster Ramsey's Bills compiled a 5–8–1 record, placing them third in the AFL Eastern Division. Unlike most of the offensive-minded AFL, the Bills focused on defense, allowing the third-fewest points in the league (303). Their defensive line boasted Laverne Torczon and Chuck McMurtry (both of whom were 1st Team All-AFL in 1960), as well as a mobile, hard-hitting middle linebacker in Archie Matsos, who was AFL All-Star in each of the three seasons he spent in Buffalo. The Bills' defense led the league in fewest passing yards allowed (2,130) and most passes intercepted (33), with NFL veterans Richie McCabe and Jim Wagstaff in their secondary. The Bills' offense, however, was not as competent. The 1960 Bills had the worst passing attack in the AFL, throwing for 2,346 yards. Former Cleveland Browns quarterback Tommy O'Connell started the season 1–3 before being replaced by Johnny Green. Green would go 3–3 as a starter, despite only completing 39% of his passes.Richie Lucas, the Bills' first ever draft pick, was a bust, both at quarterback and at halfback, throwing only 49 passes all season. The Bills did show glimmers of hope on offense, however, by showcasing running back Wray Carlton and flanker Elbert Dubenion, who would later go on to be AFL All-Stars for the Bills in the mid-1960s.

La stagione 1960 dei Buffalo Bills è stata la prima della franchigia nell'American Football League. Sotto la direzione del capo-allenatore la squadra ebbe un record di 5–8–1, classificandosi terza nella AFL Eastern Division. Diversamente dalle altre squadre della AFL orientate su una mentalità offensiva, i Bills si concentrarono sulla difesa, che si classificò al terzo posto della lega per punti subiti (303). La loro linea difensiva vedeva la presenza di e (entrambi inseriti nella formazione ideale della AFL nel 1960), oltre che di un linebacker dai colpi particolarmente duri come , che fu convocato per l'All-Star Game in ognuna delle tre stagioni che disputò a Buffalo. La difesa dei Bills guidò la lega in yard su passaggio concesse (2.130) e passaggi intercettati (33), con i veterani della NFL e Jim Wagstaff nella linea secondaria. L'attacco dei Bills fu invece poco competitivo, classificandosi ultimo in yard passate con 2.346. L'ex quarterback dei Cleveland Browns iniziò la stagione con un record di 1–3 prima di essere sostituito da Johnny Green. Green ebbe un record di 3-3 come titolare, malgrado l'avere completato il 39% dei suoi passaggi., la prima scelta di sempre dei Bills nel draft, si rivelò un giocatore di basso livello, sia come quarterback che come halfback, lanciando solo 49 passaggi in tutta la stagione. L'attacco dei Bills mostrò anche qualcosa di positivo, tuttavia, con il running back e il flanker , che in seguito sarebbero diventati degli All-Star con la squadra a metà del decennio.
