Plays on Monday Night Football vs. Tennessee Titans

Heading into this weekend, the Buffalo Bills have established themselves as one of the best teams in the NFL. They had a surprising loss in Week 1 but since then, they’ve been on a roll and now look for win No. 5 in a row against the Titans.

Their previous game was against the Kansas City Chiefs and the Bills made a statement as they won 38-20. They’ve also scored two shutout wins, knocking off Miami 35-0 in Week 2 and the Texans 40-0 in their Week 4 meeting. As its stands now, they’re the favorites in the AFC and it’s hard to envision anyone knocking them down a peg anytime soon.

32. . . Previous: 1st. Arizona Cardinals. 1. team

This one was a statement game. After the Arizona Cardinals won last week despite not playing at their best, they entered Week 6 as underdogs on the road. They also had to play without Kliff Kingsbury as the head coach was out due to a positive COVID-19 test.

They didn’t allow any of that to become an excuse and simply went out and beat the Cleveland Browns in convincing fashion. Arizona won running away with it, 37-14.

Now, they not only stand atop our 2021 NFL Power Rankings, but they continue to be the only team in the NFL without a loss yet. There’s a long way to go but this team is legit.
