Bleacher Report: Buffalo Bills don’t move in their rank and remain in Top 5

Current Week’s Ranking: 4

Last Week’s Ranking: 4

Of the four power rankings included, Bleacher Report was the only one to keep the Buffalo Bills in the same spot from the prior week. In fact, their Top 4 was the same for the second straight week with the Cardinals atop the power rankings followed by the Rams and Bucs.

The Buffalo Bills were the top-ranked AFC team in Bleacher Report’s power rankings.

"That play likely works eight times in 10, and it doesn’t take away from the fact that Buffalo is arguably the best, most balanced team in the AFC East. Even with the loss, the Bills have a sizable lead in the division. But the decision could factor into home-field advantage and a first-round playoff bye down the road."

After the way the Titans beat the Chiefs on Sunday, this has certainly become a bigger possibility as the Titans are now 5-2 on the season. While the Bills and Titans have the same number of losses, the win by the Titans gives them the advantage in the tiebreaker.

The good news for the Buffalo Bills is that they have an easier schedule for the remainder of the year while the Titans still have the Colts, Rams, Saints, and Steelers with three of those games on the road.
