The Buffalo Bills ended the 2020 NFL season on the doorstep of a Super Bowl berth, losing to the Kansas City Chiefs 38-24 in the AFC Championship Game. Heading into the 2021 NFL season, plenty of experts seem to “Billieve” in Buffalo, ranking them almost universally in the top five throughout this week’s power rankings.
John McClain of The Houston Chronicle has Buffalo ranked at No. 5, one spot behind the Green Bay Packers. He writes that the Bills should run away with the AFC East this year, with a caveat: he notes that the team will only realize their full potential if quarterback Josh Allen stays healthy.
