If there were any remaining doubts about the Bills being ready to play their best brand of football on Sunday, their on-field performance did more than enough to prove that they were ready to come out firing.
The game’s opening kickoff was returned for a touchdown by Nyheim Hines, a new player to the Bills this season.
Hines ended up returning another kick in the game for a touchdown, cementing the Bills’ victory over the New England Patriots.
This win was emotionally charged, and it was made abundantly clear that each player on the Bills had Hamlin in mind.
They locked up the number two seed in the AFC and will be facing the Miami Dolphins this coming weekend, in what is sure to be an intense game for the Bills.
In their two meetings this season, the Dolphins won the first meeting, and the Bills took the second.
What will happen in this meeting?
They have experienced sustained success this entire season and will look to make another strong playoff run to complete their dominant season.
Besides the Kansas City Chiefs, the Bills have emerged as a team to beat in the AFC.
Will they end up being the AFC’s representative in this year’s Super Bowl?
