How the Buffalo Bills can clinch a playoff spot this weekend

The Buffalo Bills have won three consecutive games to move to 9-6 on the season and have an opportunity to clinch a playoff spot this weekend.

Buffalo does control its own destiny and can make the playoffs by winning the remaining two games against the New England Patriots and Miami Dolphins. But, with help this Sunday, they can clinch at least a wild card spot before the final week of the regular season.
