Kansas City ChiefsThe playoff odds took a hit last weekend, much to the delight of Buffalo Bills fans around the world.
The Bills have dominated the AFC East this decade, but New England Patriots is back in action as the two rivals go head to head in New England this weekend.
With a win, the Patriots would clinch the division and inch closer to the No. 1 seed and a bye in the AFC, but Bills legend Andre Reid still holds out some hope.

“This is going to be one of those games where we need to step up and win this game. And hopefully, if that happens, when it does, the Patriots will lose one or two of the last three games they have and Buffalo will sneak in there and win the division. I don’t know if they get a bye or not, but they will be able to have a playoff game in the stadium,” Reed told Fox News Digital in a recent interview with Fox News Digital.
“Really, the Bills have been up, down, up, down, up, down all year. They played like this all year. But for now you have one to seven there, while you have Josh Allen there, leading the offense and being the quarterback there, they had a chance in any game.”
The final game before the Bills move across the street is scheduled for Jan. 4 against the New York Jets, and Bud Light's new Blizzard Brew will be sold at the stadium's farewell event. The 16-ounce cans will be made from real snow from Highmark Stadium, which was shoveled by Bills fans to pay homage to the stadium.
“This is to celebrate the fans and the atmosphere there, Bills Mafia, this is for them. And I'm excited to partner with Bud Light for this Blizzard Brew here. And trust me, it will be good,” the Bills legend said.

“Bills fans are obviously fair, they're great fans. They live and die, sleep, drink, eat football in Buffalo. So, again, it’s a testament to their love for the Bills and their city.”
In 1990, when the Bills made the first of four straight Super Bowlsit was almost guaranteed that by the time Highmark Stadium closed, the organization would have a Super Bowl. But the Bills failed in each of those Super Bowls, and this version of the Bills still has some struggles to overcome.
It would be a dream to either close Highmark Stadium with the Lombardi Trophy or open a new stadium with it, and with the Chiefs on the cusp of a playoff exit, the door seems as open as ever. Bills were killed by supervisors in four of the last five Januarys.
Reid doesn't believe the pressure is on the Bills to win before the stadium closes, but at least there is pressure because the Chiefs could be at home this postseason.

“Well, I mean there was always pressure on them. The only team that stopped them was the Chiefs, they all put them out of pasture. Until I see them on their backs, I'm not going to say anything…” Reed said. The Bills just have to worry about them. They can't worry about the Chiefs or anyone else. They need to go out and play football this week against the Patriots and then try to run the table.”
