Last week: 16 (-4)

Record: 2-3

Remember when the Bills looked like they were going to beat the Patriots and take control of the AFC East. That was fun. Since leading that game 21-7, they have been outscored 90-10 by the Patriots and 49ers. That’s pretty pathetic for anyone, especially for a team that was a popular sleeper coming into the year after all of the resources they put into their defense. That expensive defense ranks among the worst in the league in every category and has given up at least 45 points in 3 of 5 games led by the incredibly disappointing Mario Williams. It’s no surprise why Houston did make much of an effort to re-sign him

The only reason they’re ranked this high is because of their schedule. They face the 3 one dimensional NFC West teams, Arizona, Seattle, and St. Louis, the 2 horrible and the one slightly less horrible AFC South teams, Jacksonville, Tennessee, and Indianapolis, and they have 3 divisional games against the Jets and Dolphins. Only two games, New England and Houston, appear unwinnable the rest of the way, even for a team like Buffalo. Unfortunately, all that easy schedule is likely to do is hurt their draft pick and lessen the chances that some coaches get a much needed firing.
