Those are all winnable. They also get New England and NY Jets in the last 2 games of the season when both teams could be resting starters for the playoffs.
Kansas City and Chicago are not winnable for Buffalo. KC came as close to pulling the plug on Indy's offense as you can hope to. 4FG, a TD and under 350 yards total offense in that oversize basketball arena they call a football stadium in the Nap.
The Lions team that showed up against the Rammies or against the Bears in Week 1 beats the Bills too.

This is the NFL. Those games are winnable. Wait, how are you defining winnable? Bet a paycheck winnable? >50% winnable?

Exactly. Just this week we saw the Cardinals score 30 points and beat the Saints without an offensive touchdown. The Bears QB threw 6 completed passes to his own team and 4 to the other team and won. San Diego gained 15 more first downs and 227 more Yards than the Raiders and lost by 8. I'd put the odds of the Bills winning one of those games at greater than 85% and greater than 60% to win 2 of them.

what does that mean?
I'm not sure, but a friend of mine went to the game this week and described it similarly. Said it seemed more like a soccer dome or a big basketball court than a football stadium. I think he described it as long.
It does have that look from the outside (also not particularly interesting), but I don't know how much different the seating philosophy is in a football stadium compared to a basketball arena. Other than the field of play is much bigger. I haven't been inside yet, and probably never will unless someone gives me free or very cheap tickets.
