The Buffalo Bills have received a major prediction for the 2026 season.
The Buffalo Bills enter the 2026 season with expectations of winning the Super Bowl once again. Ahead of the season, Jacob Robinson of The Athletic predicted the Bills to win the AFC East with a 12-5 record.
This is the record that Buffalo finished with in 2025, but Robinson expects the New England Patriots to finish 10-7 rather than 14-3, which would catapult the Bills to the division title.
Buffalo has a talented roster, but they made some changes after a disappointing loss to the Denver Broncos in the Divisional Round. That led to the firing of head coach Sean McDermott, with offensive coordinator Joe Brady being promoted to the head coaching role.
Brady has led an elite offense over the years, keeping continuity in the building for Josh Allen and the offense.
Allen is coming off a great season as he completed 69.3 percent of his passes for 3,668 yards, 25 touchdowns, and 10 interceptions. He added 579 yards and 14 touchdowns on 112 carries.

Cook had a career year in 2025, rushing for 1,621 yards and 12 touchdowns while hauling in 33 receptions for 291 yards and two touchdowns.
Allen and Cook are the stars of the offense, but Brady will look to maximize to the receiving weapons. The Bills acquired DJ Moore in a trade with the Chicago Bears to be the top receiver.
Moore is coming off a down year as he finished with 50 receptions for 682 yards and six touchdowns while rushing for 79 yards and a touchdown on 15 carries.
He has gone over 1,000 yards in four of eight seasons of his career, and Brady and the offense will need him to return to that level.
While the Bills have some question marks with Brady taking over as the head coach for McDermott, they have a talented roster led by Allen who will keep them in the hunt for a Super Bowl.
