The New England Patriots and Buffalo Bills face off today with first place in the division on the line… what are the four biggest areas we’re looking at?

The New England Patriots‘ next game in the 2019 NFL season is this afternoon at 1 pm EST in Buffalo against the AFC East division rival Bills.

Both New England and Buffalo enter this Week 3 matchup with similar 3-0 records. This is the first time since 2011 that the Bills have a 3-0 record and sit atop the AFC East. 2011 is also, coincidentally, the last time the New England Patriots lost in Buffalo.

The New England Patriots have dominated every game for the first three games of the 2019 season. A loss in Buffalo isn’t likely, but it still is possible because the Buffalo Bills actually have a pretty solid team this year. That said, if the Patriots do want to walk out of Buffalo 4-0, here are four keys that will lead to a first place spot in the AFC East.
