Bills Playoff Picture: Predicting final three games on the schedule
By Ryan Heckman
Buffalo Bills at Cincinnati Bengals Week 17 Prediction
If you thought the Bills’ current 5-game winning streak was impressive, enter: the Cincinnati Bengals and their 6-game winning streak. Cincy holds the second-longest win streak of the season, currently, behind San Francisco’s 7-game tear.
Joe Burrow has been extremely consistent during this streak, too, throwing multiple touchdown passes in four out of his last five games. The Bengals offense is nothing to mess around with, especially now that Ja’Marr Chase is healthy again and Joe Mixon is back in the fold.
But, it’s been the Bengals defense that’s made some of the bigger plays during this win streak, and maybe none more impressive than the three takeaways they forced on Tom Brady — in a single quarter — last weekend.
This has the makings of a tough game for Buffalo, and if they lose any of the remaining three games, it will be this one. Buffalo stays close, but in the end a failed two-point conversion becomes a huge difference in this one. Buffalo falls to 12-4 before a finale against a division rival.
Final Score: Cincinnati 27 Buffalo 22
