As the defending AFC East champions and a finalist for the AFC playoffs, the Buffalo Bills aren't supposed to have an easy schedule going into 2025. They have matchups against playoff teams like the Kansas City Chiefs, Philadelphia Eagles, and Baltimore Ravens scheduled on the docket this season. Despite the daunting few matchups, there is reason to be excited as a Bills fan.

5, trailing the 49ers, Patriots, Saints, and Falcons. "Projected win totals incorporate current information about team strength, including offseason acquisitions, injuries, and coaching changes," Sharp said. "These projections are crafted by sportsbooks aiming to predict future performance, making them more reflective of a team's current capabilities."

As part of the league's schedule, the Bills will take on the entirety of the AFC North and NFC South including first place winners in the AFC South and NFC East. That may seem daunting, but the South has been one of the league's worst divisions for years, and the North has a few hit-or-miss teams of their own.

Buffalo is trying to win their sixth-straight division title and find a way to finally end their struggles in the postseason. They have yet to beat Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs in the playoffs so far. An easier schedule may put them on the path to doing so in 2025, though.
