Realistically I don't think this is true, but apparently the Bills remaining opponents currently have the lowest combined winning pct. compared to every other teams remaining schedule. That's kind of surprising considering a team like the Texans still has 4 games against the Jags and Titans, but here's the blog post from ESPN.
We noted earlier this week that the Buffalo Bills are entering a softer patch of their regular-season schedule.
In fact, it doesn't get any easier than this.
Consider this note from ESPN Stats & Information:
The Bills' remaining opponents have a combined 22-29 record (.431 win pct), the easiest remaining schedule in the NFL as we enter Week 6.
We'll chalk it up to a few factors:
The Bills have already played three teams -- the 3-2 Detroit Lions, the 3-2 Houston Texans, and the 4-1 San Diego Chargers -- who have winning records.
The AFC East is matched up with the AFC West and NFC North this season; the Bills have yet to play three of the worst four teams in those divisions.
After finishing fourth in the AFC East last season, the Bills are matched up with the Cleveland Browns (who finished fourth in the AFC North last season). The Browns are 2-2 this season.
The Bills still have two games remaining against the 1-4 New York Jets.
