Twelve games are now behind the Buffalo Bills, and four lie straight ahead. The Bills may be 6-6 now with a chance at some post season action, but this year has hardly been celebratory thus far. It's time we take a look deep within our souls and ask the questions, "Does Buffalo have enough gas in the tank to make it?" "Who have they defeated to get where they are now?" "Have they been convincing the league that the Bills are for real?" Let's examine these three questions.
Can we make it: What's it going to take to squeek out a playoff spot? Well, they pretty much have to win the division. It looks like the wild card spots, will be coming from the AFC West, which has three teams above .500. The New York Jets have to lose this weekend. Oddly enough they play host to an AFC West team, the Denver Broncos. Go Denver. Miami should win; after all, they are hosting the Chicago Bears. That means this coming Sunday it's for all the marbles. If the AFCE comes down to a tie break, and we are still in it according to win/loss, we'd lose on the divisional record. So a win on Sunday would extend our post season hopes.
