The Buffalo Bills lost to the New England Patriots on Monday night, falling 1.5 games behind their eternal tormentors and settling into second place in the AFC East. As a result, I assumed that Buffalo might have plummeted in the Week 14 NFL power rankings, but I was wrong.
We’ll start with Vinnie Iyer at Sporting News, who kept Buffalo in the No. 8 spot for a second straight week. He files his rankings before Monday Night Football, so his writeup discusses Buffalo’s win over the New Orleans Saints and the opportunity Buffalo had last night to overtake the Patriots for the divisional lead.
