Through 8 weeks, the Bills and Jets rank 2 and 3, respectively, in Football Outsiders' DVOA ratings. That means that Sunday's game is playoff-caliber. It's also incredible to me that the Bills rank so high in DVOA this far into the season - as FO's charting makes clear, this is a really strong indicator that the Bills are likely to make the playoffs. However, New England isn't far behind at the 8 spot, meaning that there is very likely to be a playoff-quality team from the AFC East that gets shut out of the playoffs...

 

Anyhow, a win on Sunday would be HUGE. (But you already knew that.)

Lots of intriguing matchups in Week 9, including what should finally be a couple of quality evening games on SNF and MNF. But Buf-NYJ has the potential to be the game of the week for sure.

 

Another tidbit from FO...taking into account our current record, remaining schedule and current DVOA the Bills have a 73% chance of making the playoffs.
