Since the 2020 season, the Buffalo Bills had taken over the AFC East once Tom Brady left the division for Tampa Bay. When Brady left, the Bills had a clear path of not just winning the AFC East for the first time since 1995, but also taking it for quite some time. For the past five seasons, they have ruled the division both by a mile and by a string.
However, that won’t be the case this season. With them losing to the Eagles yesterday, the New England Patriots are back on top of the division and now Buffalo will be a wild card team going into the playoffs.
