At the onset of the 2025 NFL season it seemed like a safe bet that the Buffalo Bills would once again be crowned the AFC East Champions. Whether it’s the ascendancy of a new elite talent or lightning in a bottle remains to be seen, but the New England Patriots and quarterback Drake Maye have won 10 straight in a run that for some time looked like it would leave the Bills in the dust. Now with four games remaining in the season, there’s a very simple (and not too impossible) path for Buffalo to make their return as the six-time division winner.
I want to be clear that I’m not insinuating this will be easy or remotely guaranteed, but the scenario below is also not insane to dream about either.
Well? Let’s get on with it
Before we get rolling with my scenario, here’s a list of tiebreakers
