BREAKING: Buffalo Bills Clinch Playoff Spot
After a journey back to the playoffs looked far from certain a few weeks ago, the Buffalo Bills have now officially punched their ticket to the postseason.

With the Jacksonville Jaguars losing 28-20 to the Tennessee Titans, the Bills have clinched a playoff spot and can fall no further than No. 7 in the AFC playoffs. Buffalo (10-6) visits the Miami Dolphins (11-5) on Sunday night in a contest where the winner will be the AFC East champion and the No. 2 seed in the postseason.
The Jags beat the Bills 25-20 in London in Week 5, but the teams have gone in opposite directions since. It hasn't all been pretty, but Buffalo has pulled off four straight wins in what were essentially must-win games headed into Sunday's meeting with the Dolphins.
Despite clinching, the Bills and Dolphins still have everything to play for. Potentially getting homefield advantage throughout the postseason in the event of the No. 1-seeded Ravens losing in the Divisional Round could help the Bills pave an easier path to the Super Bowl.
Buffalo and Miami kickoff at 8:20 p.m. ET.
