CBS Sports: Buffalo Bills back in the Top 3

Current Week’s Ranking: 3

Last Week’s Ranking: 6

The Buffalo Bills receive their highest rank this week from Pete Prisco at CBS Sports, as they jump three spots from six to three. They have only the Green Bay Packers and Tennessee Titans ahead of them.

"Nothing like beating up on the Jets to get your season back on track. They can’t let up with the way the Patriots are playing."

Similar to ESPN, the topic of the New England Patriots are mentioned here by Prisco. The Buffalo Bills are 6-3 but only one ahead of the Patriots in the loss column. However, they also have a slightly better divisional record, which is used as a tiebreaker, with the Patriots suffering a loss to the Dolphins early in the season.

Last year, the Buffalo Bills built an early lead in the division and weren’t really pushed by any other team in the AFC East. That doesn’t seem to be the case this year, and the pressure will be on this team to continue to win if they want to repeat as division champions.
