The Buffalo Bills find themselves in the conversation about the NFL’s best teams through the first quarter of the 2020 NFL season. With their first 4-0 start in 12 years, the team has earned that praise. This undefeated start is a bit more impressive than the last one for a few reasons.
For starters, the record of the Bills’ four 2008 opponents—the Seattle Seahawks, Jacksonville Jaguars, Oakland Raiders, and St. Louis Rams—ended up 16-48. The current vintage has built a 4-0 record against three teams in varying places in the standings, with the New York Jets thought to be the worst team in the league and the Miami Dolphins sitting in the bottom-ten as they begin a rebuild.
