Buffalo Rumblings
Week 5 of NFL action comes to a close tonight with the 3-1 Jacksonville Jaguars hosting the 2-2 Kansas City Chiefs on Monday Night Football. Prior to last week, much had been made about KC’s demise in 2025. Now, there are those who believe whatever ailed the Chiefs has been corrected, and that they’re well on their way to another Super Bowl run.
That for sure delights Bills Mafia, a fan base that certainly has little to no distaste for all things connected to Arrowhead Stadium. When it comes to these Chiefs, there’s almost never a game Bills fans find reason to cheer them to victory. But what do Buffalo’s Week 5 rooting interests reveal about tonight’s matchup?
In truth, the Bills would do better with an early season Chiefs win simply because the 3-1 Jaguars were just one game behind Buffalo in the AFC standings entering Week 5, while KC at 2-2 was two behind. With a Bills loss on Sunday, it’s even more important for them to have Jacksonville lose, even if that means the Chiefs gain some ground. Should the Jags win, they’d pull even with a 4-1 record, while the Chiefs drop to 2-3. It’s not an ideal scenario either way, but Buffalo only has themselves to thank for the scenarios at play tonight.
The Bills currently hold the two seed in the AFC, and that’s the most important seed to consider in this equation for Week 5. With that, here’s your open thread for Monday Night Football. As always, be kind to one another — and in all things… go Bills!
