Are the Bills a Good Dark Horse in the AFC Futures Market?

Are the Bills a Good Dark Horse in the AFC Futures Market?

As the NFL season heats up, the AFC playoff picture is taking shape with some surprising developments. If the playoffs were to start today, the Kansas City Chiefs would be at the top, holding the coveted number one seed. Their performance against the Philadelphia Eagles tonight will be crucial in solidifying their position.

The Baltimore Ravens stand strong with an 8-3 record, showcasing their resilience and strategic prowess throughout the season. Another team making waves is the Jacksonville Jaguars, who’ve climbed to a surprising 7-3 following a significant victory over the Tennessee Titans.

The Miami Dolphins continue to impress with their recent win, adding another layer of competitiveness to the playoff race. In contrast, the Cleveland Browns (7-3) have defied expectations, succeeding despite a lackluster offense. They’ve embraced the underdog role, turning it to their advantage in a remarkable display of grit and determination.

However, the most notable story might be the Cincinnati Bengals (5-5). Without star quarterback Joe Burrow, their journey to the playoffs has become increasingly challenging. Their struggles highlight the importance of key players and how their absence can significantly impact a team’s playoff hopes.

Equally surprising is the absence of the Buffalo Bills (6-5) from the current playoff picture. Entering the season as one of the favorites, perhaps second or third in odds to win the AFC, their current position is unexpected. Injuries have played a role, particularly on defense, with the losses of Matt Milano and Tre’Davious White being particularly impactful.

Despite a healthy offense, the Bills have underperformed, leading to OC Ken Dorsey‘s firing and Joe Brady‘s appointment as a potential catalyst for improvement. This change seemed to positively impact their game against the New York Jets, where Josh Allen’s decision-making appeared sharper, except for an interception during a Hail Mary attempt.

Looking ahead, the Bills are expected to be a significant threat in the remaining season. Their recent lull has put them in a precarious position, on the outside looking in. With little room for error in a challenging schedule, they are one of the most intriguing teams to watch in the coming weeks. Their journey back into playoff contention will be a key storyline as the season progresses.
