The Bills are off to a hot start through three weeks. They’ve climbed several power rankings to earn one of the top two spots.

The Buffalo Bills have been consistently good during the Sean McDermott/Josh Allen era. Five straight playoff appearances, four straight division titles and a pair of 13-win seasons is an impressive run.

And this might be the best Bills team of the era, after an offseason of worry that their Super Bowl window had closed.

The Bills have been dominant through three weeks. They had a slow start in Week 1 before pulling away from the Arizona Cardinals and then blew out the Miami Dolphins and Jacksonville Jaguars. From halftime of Week 1 to halftime of Week 3, the Bills outscored their opponents 89-24. The Jaguars were trailing 34-3 at halftime. In the first half, Allen had 247 yards and four touchdowns and played at a level rarely seen. … right now, Buffalo deserves to be the No. 1 team in the latest power rankings.

The Bills really could make a case for No. 1 here, but I didn’t want to be the guy who dropped the Chiefs from the top spot after the back-to-back Super Bowl champs opened the season with three wins. But the way Buffalo absolutely obliterated Jacksonville served as a firm reminder that this team isn’t going anywhere. It was a near-perfect night for the Bills. Josh Allen got cooking early, burgeoning his early MVP candidacy. Dalton Kincaid scored his first touchdown of the season. Khalil Shakir took another step forward. Keon Coleman caught his first NFL TD pass. And in the moment that truly energized the crowd, Damar Hamlin snagged his first career interception. Buffalo has a different level of focus and execution to start this season, one that took way too long to develop a year ago. Guess that Super Bowl window hasn’t closed just yet.
