“The Buffalo Bills are very good at responding to bad losses and did just that after their bye in Week 8, proving to everyone that they aren’t going to go away and might still be a top team in this league. Both sides of the ball were working well in Week 8, and the Panthers really had no answers at all.
Buffalo finds itself 5-2 and looking up at the New England Patriots in the AFC East, which is shocking. They actually have a good bit of work to do in order to pass New England, as the Patriots beat them in Buffalo, which is very impressive.
I do wonder if Buffalo is going to consider buying some defensive help at the NFL trade deadline, and they could even make a move at wide receiver as well. Overall, this does not feel like a great team, and doesn’t feel close to their insane regular season back in 2024, but Buffalo won’t go away and will still be playing late in the playoffs, as they usually are.
The Bills are no. 11 in our NFL power rankings.” — Lou Scataglia
