watching last night's game, do you think NE is that good, or are the Jests that bad?

 

BTW, where is Fireman Ed ?

To be honest, I'm not sure but perhaps it's a combination of both. NE is a good team but at the same time the Jets are a train wreck.

The Hoodie was out for blood.  He wanted to rattle and ruin the young QBs in his division.  He gameplanned well and set to ruin Darnold, Allen and Rosen.  Rosen was already a wreck.  Allen rattled early, but recovered.  That's why NE had to try and decapitate him before he mounted a comeback.  Darnold...well...mission accomplished.  Belli got into his head, set up a lawn chair and cracked open a cold one.  It was psychological warfare, and Darnold was utterly ruined.

5. Buffalo Bills (5-1) | Last Week’s Rank: 7

Winning at home against the Dolphins barely counts, you say? It doesn’t matter. The Bills just keep winning. Whether they’ve turned outside observers into believers is irrelevant. They look like a solid playoff contender.

11. Buffalo Bills (5-1; Last week: 11)

Surely that was closer than Bills fans might have liked, but Buffalo holds on to its spot as a wild-card favorite after pulling away from the Dolphins late. What are the chances Josh Allen can (finally) put together a complete game next week against Philadelphia’s ailing secondary?

 

10 Texans

9 Seahawks

8 Chiefs

7 Colts

6 Ravens

5 Vikings

4 Packers

3 49ers

2 Saints

1 Cheaters

 

 

I'm not convinced by the Colts but this looks right. The Bills are a borderline playoff team on the rise. #5 in CBS is nuts.

they hold the #1 WC by at least 1 game margin over the others.

 

The spot is theirs to lose.   For reference see the Unofficial Official playoff thread

Not sure who the voter is but someone has the Bills listed at number 1. 

Shut the Front Door!!!

 

 

11. BUFFALO BILLS (5-1)

Previous rank: 11
Points in poll: 153
Highest-place vote: 1 (1 voter)
Lowest-place vote: 16 (3 voters)
Last week’s result: Beat Miami, 31-21
This week: vs. Philadelphia

Nervous, nervous afternoon for Buffalo as this horrendous interception and inexcusable lost fumble from Miami kept the shiny one in the Bills’ loss column. Josh Allen was effective (16-of-26, 202 yards, 2 TDs) and, more importantly, hung

With their schedule, they should be set up well for the wildcard but they aren't top 5 until they beat some real teams. Eagles, Ravens, Cowboys will be good tests of their mettle.
