Ugly win or not, our ESPN.com NFL experts were kind to the Buffalo Bills this week.

After a come-from-behind win at home over the Minnesota Vikings (2-5), the Bills improved from No. 21 to No. 16 in our weekly ESPN NFL Power Rankings.

It wasn't a pretty game for Buffalo but the Bills are tied with the Miami Dolphins -- who rose from No. 23 to No. 18 -- for the biggest jump in the Week 8 rankings.

It's the second-highest spot the Bills have occupied this season. They were ranked No. 12 after a 2-0 start.

Up next for the Bills (4-3) are the New York Jets (1-6), who stayed put at No. 29 after a close loss to the New England Patriots last week.
