HIGH HOPES. The Buffalo Bills will proudly and triumphantly entertain their Highmark Stadium faithful Sunday afternoon.

The Bills Mafia should expect an exciting and frosty Wild Card matchup with the Denver Broncos.

Likely league MVP Josh Allen will direct the competitive one-score victory, meaning the Bills will host a second playoff game.

The Bills have never lost a game after a bye week under Head Coach Sean McDermott, and the regular-season finale against New England was basically a bye week.

Congrats to the Pats for earning the No. 4 spot in the 2025 Draft when a loss to the Bills would have clinched the coveted No. 1 pick. Please disappoint New York Jets fans and hire Rex Ryan as your next head coach.

FREDDIE sees it this way:

BILLS 33, Broncos 27
