The Buffalo Bills have a stranglehold on an AFC playoff spot, according to multiple simulations. It’s so strong, that folks aren’t talking about IF Buffalo is going to the playoffs, but rather WHEN they are going to clinch a playoff spot.
Over at The New York Times Playoff Simulator, Buffalo is sitting at a lofty 94% of simulations where they make the postseason. So 19-of-20 teams in the Bills’ spot will make the postseason. If the Bills win any of their remaining games, it goes up to 99% or better.
At Five Thirty Eight, the Bills are at 95% right now.
