The Buffalo Bills came up one point short in Week 17, and the New England Patriots secured the AFC East title as a result, but reasons for optimism remain

The NFL playoffs are heating up this Saturday, and today could be a strong one for bettors with the Buffalo Bills taking on the Jacksonville Jaguars in Duval.

Bills quarterback Josh Allen is the reigning MVP. Eagles running back Saquon Barkley is the reigning offensive player of the year after leading the league in rushing — a distinction that Bills running back James Cook is now on pace to claim. Since 2022, Allen has been the only quarterback with more total touchdowns than Hurts.

The Buffalo Bills will pay homage to their championship past during Sunday's regular-season finale against the New York Jets.

Elsewhere in the AFC, the Bills rival, the Baltimore Ravens, are in the process of finding a new head coach after firing John Harbaugh after 18 seasons, and their search has brought them to a former Buffalo Bills quarterback. "We have completed an interview with Davis Webb for our head coach position," the Ravens posted on social media.

Travis Etienne and the running game could be the Jaguars fatal flaw and derail their Super Bowl hopes in the AFC Playoffs.

Nick Wright joins Colin Cowherd to preview the Wild Card Weekend, including asking if the Buffalo Bills are Super Bowl or Bust, if Sam Darnold and the Seattle Seahawks can be trusted, and if Caleb Williams deserves to be criticized if the Chicago Bears lose to the Green Bay Packers.

Ones to Watch: After clinching the AFC 1-seed and a first-round bye with a win against the Chargers in Week 18, the Broncos (14-3) moved from +700 to +650, staying in the third spot. The Bills (12-5) didn't move much after a 35-8 victory against the Jets, going from +1100 to +1000. They'll take on the Jaguars in Jacksonville in the wild card.
