Great writeup, bud.They may not even be in the playoffs, depending on how the rest of the season goes. Let's take a look at it. Buffalo's defense has been made of glass for the last few seasons. We picked up Larry Ogunjobi and Michael Hoecht, and they both popped PED suspensions. The Bills knew about Hoecht. Hoecht got activated after six weeks, played lights out for six quarters, and is gone for the season with a torn Achilles. Ed Oliver is on injured reserve with a torn biceps after having been out earlier. Safety Taylor Rapp is gone for the season, CB Christian Benford was out, along with Taron Johnson and DE AJ Espenesa. So Buffalo was missing half of its starting defense, but again, we seem to have that problem year after year. LB Matt Milano has always had a torn something or another muscle, except for his horrendous leg break a few years back in London in one of the dumb ass overseas games, and now he's past his prime.
On to the offense. Name one Buffalo Bills wide receiver you'd want on your fantasy team who isn't named Khalil Shakir. He's a slot guy. Keon Coleman has been a bust. Gabe Davis didn't pan out. Diggs popped an attitude. The Bills have sucked in the X and Z receiver department, and Josh Allen deserves better. The receivers are never open. The Bills have a once-in-a-generation QB, they've given him a decent OL, and surrounded him with shit for receivers. Then we have TE Dalton Kincaid. Great TE but made of glass. He went out again today with a hamstring. Josh isn't looking good on the sideline, like he's under a lot of pressure. Look at some of the plays from the Miami game and how long Josh had to scramble to find an open man. Very few guys can do that, but HE SHOULDN'T HAVE TO. Where is Mack Hollins when you need him? Oh yeah, scoring TDs in NE.
The coaching is generally crap, and I'll leave it at that. Brandon Beane claims he did want to make a deal at the trade deadline for help at WR or on the DL, but there was nothing that worked. I would have given a bunch to give Josh a decent target.
The bottom line? When you bet on Buffalo, you are betting on Josh Allen, James Cook, and the OL. If Buffalo is facing a weak run defense, they can probably run it for the win. The defense is beat to hell and missing some very big pieces. Look and see if Dalton Kincaid is active and well. I don't expect much from my Bills the rest of the way.

That's very debatable and I'd disagree. Unless you meant the best team in the conference that's not in the playoffs if the season ended today. LolBut Chiefs are the best team in the conference
