The Bills’ win over the Dallas Cowboys on Thanksgiving was a big win.
Of course, it was on the national stage. That’s big.
But in regard to the team’s playoff chances, it was massive as well.
According to the folks at FiveThirtyEight, the Bills have a 94 percent chance of making the playoffs now that the team has a 9-3 record. The analytics outlet gives only the Chiefs, Patriots, and Ravens better odds to make the playoffs in the AFC.
But FiveThirtyEight isn’t alone in their big percentages. ESPN and the New York Times playoff machine also have the Bills with an above 90 percent chance of making the playoffs. ESPN and the New York Times current give the Bills a 96 and 93 percent odds at making the postseason, respectively.
So we’re telling you, there’s very much a chance.
