The Buffalo Bills have looked as though they could spoil some teams hopes in the playoffs, but Rich Eisen believes they can do even more than that
It wasn’t long ago that we looked at some reports out there that talked about how the Buffalo Bills were built to be a spoiler in the playoffs. However, one prominent NFL pundit believes they could do much more than that.
Rich Eisen, of the NFL Network and The Rich Eisen Show, was discussing the team on Thursday and he thinks they have what it takes to win the AFC and take on the NFC champs in the Super Bowl.
He cites their impressive defense as well as the fact that they have a strong running game and a receiver in John Brown that can make some big plays for them.

‘I could see Buffalo Bills in Super Bowl,’ says Rich Eisen — Ryan Talbot, Syracuse
"“I could see the Bills in the Super Bowl… It’s possible they make a run. We can’t sit here and go, ‘You know what? This is a nice story.’ You really have to sit here and think they’ve got one of the top corners in the game, a top five defense, a quarterback that is difficult to predict… Mostly positive than negative as opposed to last year. A running game and a top notch playmaker in Brown.”"
Eisen gave the Bills some great praise and it’s easy to see where he’s coming from. Defense wins championships and the Bills are a defensive power in the AFC. The question continues to be whether or not their offense can find a rhythm and do enough to get some wins.
"“I’m making a public declaration here,” Kornheiser said on his show Pardon The Interruption this week. “A couple of years ago I looked at this guy Sean McDermott, when he declared his fealty to Nathan Peterman. I said, ‘This guy is a bozo. They’re gonna fire him. They need to fire him.’ I could not have been more wrong.”"
This is really big of Kornheiser. Whether or not you like him, it takes guts for someone to go back on air ‚— when they’re paid to give good opinions — and say he was wrong.
NFL Week 16 game picks: Patriots nip Bills; Cowboys clinch East — Gregg Rosenthal, NFL.com
"“In a chilly game where I don’t trust either offense to move the ball, the Patriots will need Josh Allen to provide extra possessions and good field position again.”"
Rosenthal picked them to win 16-14 and seems to think highly of the Bills, stating the Patriots have won in the past with the same style of team Buffalo has this season.
