The New England Patriots are hosting the Buffalo Bills in a crunch AFC East matchup. The Patriots are 1-5 to start the season and come into the game with a three-game losing record. On the other hand, the Buffalo Bills have a 4-2 record to begin the season, with their latest win coming over the New York Giants.
Both teams would love a victory for different reasons. The Patriots, led by Bill Belichick, need a win to get their season back on track. It had been a year of strife in New England, with calls for Belichick's dismissal growing louder with each defeat.
On the other hand, the Bills have started the season on a decent 4-2 record. The Bills have racked up records over the Las Vegas Raiders, Washington Commanders, Miami Dolphins, and New York Giants. However, they dropped losses to the New York Jets and Jacksonville Jaguars. They come into the Patriots with a chip on their shoulder and would fancy their chances heading into Week 7.
