Buffalo Bills would take commanding lead in race for AFC 1 seed with win

The Buffalo Bills and Kansas City Chiefs finished number 2 and number 1 in the AFC playoff rankings last year, respectively. Even though it’s just Week 5, this game has massive implications down the line for playoff seeding once again.

The Bills have a very easy remaining schedule based on current record of opponents. Three AFC 1-3 teams account for five total games out of the remaining 13. In fact, only two teams remaining on their schedule have winning records right now; Tampa Bay and Carolina (if you can believe it). If they can beat the Chiefs, they will win any tiebreakers over them and put themselves three games up on Kansas City in the race for the one seed.
