Where do the Buffalo Bills rank in the AFC after their blowout win over the New York Jets?
The race for the top seed in the AFC is as wide open as it has been for nearly two decades. The New England Patriots seemed to lay claim to it for nearly two decades, with Peyton Manning-led Indianapolis Colts, threatening at times.
Then the Patriots were passed by the Kansas City Chiefs the past two seasons and they looked to be the next great dynasty that would dominate the top of the conference. They certainly still could end up claiming that top seed but they are no longer the clear favorite.
The parity in the AFC has created an interesting discussion of who currently is atop the AFC. There are a number of good teams, with the Buffalo Bills in that discussion, but most of the teams have suffered bad losses in recent weeks that raises questions.
When looking at the AFC, this is how I would rank the teams at roughly the halfway point of the season.
