The Buffalo Bills have won four games in a row, turning a 6-6 record at their bye week into a 10-6 record. More importantly, the Bills have taken huge steps towards qualifying for the playoffs, increasing their odds all the way up to 95% entering Week 18, according to The New York Times playoff calculator.
As great as those odds may be, if the Bills lose their final game this week, they could plummet all the way to zero if they don’t receive some help. If the Pittsburgh Steelers win, the Jacksonville Jaguars win, and the game between the Houston Texans and Indianapolis Colts doesn’t end in a tie, Buffalo is eliminated with a loss.
