New England Patriots vs Buffalo Bills: How to watch NFL online
The New England Patriots travel to face the Buffalo Bills in Week 13. Here is all the information you need to watch the game!
The New England Patriots will be taking their seven-game road trip on the road in Week 13. The Patriots will look to stay hot as they pay a visit to their AFC East rivals, the Buffalo Bills.
This will be the first time that the Patriots and Bills face off this season. Last season, the Bills and Patriots split the two games against each other. Both teams won on the other’s home field.
This is an important game for both teams. The Patriots can essentially wrap up the AFC East with a victory over the Bills. Also, they would, at worst, keep up with the Pittsburgh Steelers, whom they are tied atop the AFC with.
The Bills, on the other hand, are battling it out for a Wild Card spot. The Bills are currently tied with the Baltimore Ravens with a 6-5 record. However, because of tiebreakers, they are on the outside looking in as the seventh seed.

This is a difficult matchup for the Patriots. Tyrod Taylor presents a lot of problems because of his dual-threat ability as a runner and accurate passer. Taylor is difficult enough to game plan against when a defense is at full strength. The Patriots are not at full strength heading into this game.
New England will be without defensive end, Trey Flowers. Flowers is the sack leader for the Patriots this season, but he will miss Week 13 with a rib injury. As a result, the Patriots will be leaning on rookie Deitrich Wise Jr. and Eric Lee at defensive end.
In addition to Flowers, linebacker Trevor Reilly will be sidelined because of a concussion. They are joining wide receiver Chris Hogan and offensive tackle Marcus Cannon on the sideline, who was announced out earlier in the week.
The Patriots will have Tom Brady in the lineup, as he was removed from the injury report Friday. As long as Brady is in the lineup, the Patriots will have a great shot at winning the game.
