The Buffalo Bills are one of the best teams in the NFL. We don’t need power rankings to understand that fact. After a 30-21 victory over the previously unbeaten Kansas City Chiefs, Buffalo has rightly gained a place in the top two of many lists.
However, there are still a few outlets that have the Chiefs ranked above the Bills and, frankly, I understand it. Power rankings are often prone to knee-jerk reactions, and to downgrade the Chiefs too harshly for losing to another great team could be considered a knee-jerk reaction. Last week, some people left the Bills behind the Baltimore Ravens, a team that smoked the Bills 35-10 earlier this year, in spite of Buffalo’s recent win streak.
