are the bills out of the playoffs

No, the Buffalo Bills are not officially out of the playoffs as of mid- December 2025; they are currently in a playoff position with strong odds to get in.

Quick status

• The Bills are sitting in a wild-card spot in the AFC playoff race (around the No. 6–7 seed range) with a winning record (9–4 or 8–4 depending on week reference).

• Recent projections have given them a very high probability (around mid‑90% range) to reach the postseason heading into Week 14–15 of the 2025 season.

• They are still chasing the Patriots for the AFC East title but remain solidly in the wild‑card mix even if they don’t win the division.

What still matters

• A key late‑season game against New England is huge for both the division race and seeding.

• Their remaining schedule has a couple of tough matchups (Patriots, Eagles) but they’re generally favored in most games, which keeps their path to the playoffs very much alive.

So, unless there has been a very recent collapse not reflected in these mid‑December updates, the Bills are still in the hunt and not eliminated from the playoffs.
