Most roster moves have been made, and the playoff brackets are beginning to be hung under the chimneys with care.
In Western New York, the beloved Buffalo Bills find themselves in a good place this Christmas. They’ve clinched a playoff spot, and early-season injuries have mostly dissipated.
They could still use some presents, though. And with Santa Claus coming to town, here’s a quick list of what they might want.

Christmas wish list for Buffalo BillsA wide receiver who can get open
We all appreciate Khalil Shakir’s work out of the slot, but Josh Allen needs a perimeter weapon who can create separation.

It’s not clear such a player is on the roster, but maybe Santa will deliver some extra skill to the Bills’ WR room this Christmas to help out the whole passing attack.
A kicker
The Bills haven’t had Tyler Bass all season due to injury, and Matt Prater is hurt now, too.
The new guy, Michael Badgley, is fine but not great, and he missed an extra point in his debut.
The last thing the Bills need is a kicker question mark heading into the postseason.
The right kind of glasses
Bills head coach Sean McDermott put glasses on when he was coaching earlier this season because he said he had no choice.

Buffalo went 3-3 while McDermott wore his glasses, and since he took them off, the Bills are 8-1.
Santa’s gotta have some glasses that McDermott can wear that don’t have a weird jinx on Buffalo’s ability to win, right?
A parade
Of course, this is what everyone in Bills Mafia wants.
It’s also what Allen, McDermott and everyone in the organization wants. It’s at the top of everyone’s list.
A Super Bowl is the only present the Bills could ever really ask for or need.
