The Buffalo Bills aren’t in their usual spot at this point in the season. Despite their 35-31 comeback victory over the New England Patriots last Sunday, Buffalo still sits in second place in the AFC East with the slimmest of chances to get back in first place.
Nonetheless, Buffalo has carried a high-percentage chance of securing a Wild Card spot since the race began taking shape. It’s not the most comfortable of circumstances for Bills fans, who have enjoyed five straight seasons as the division leader and hosting at least one postseason game.
That’s set to change this year, with a Wild Card berth being all but certain.
