The New England Patriots schedule isn’t getting any easier. Winners of three in a row, Tom Brady and the first-place Patriots travel to Ralph Wilson Stadium to take on the second-place Buffalo Bills. Back in Week 4, Tyrod Taylor and the Bills handed the Pats their only loss of the season. Will history repeat itself when these two teams meet for the second time this year? This one could be the game of the week!

WHAT TIME DOES THE NEW ENGLAND PATRIOTS VS. BUFFALO BILLS GAME BEGIN?

The Patriots and Bills are scheduled for a 1:00 P.M. Eastern kickoff.

HOW DO I LIVE STREAM THE BUFFALO BILLS VS. NEW ENGLAND PATRIOTS GAME?

The good news is that the Patriots/Bills game will be available to watch on CBS. The bad news? Unfortunately, that means that Bills vs. Patriots free live streaming options are limited. Due to the current restrictions in place, NFL games broadcast on CBS are NOT shown on CBS All Access, CBS’s streaming platform.

One possibility for fans is PlayStation Vue. Subscribers to their ‘Access’ basic cable streaming service have access to CBS, though channel lineups vary by region.

IS IT POSSIBLE TO STREAM VIA DIRECTV SUNDAY TICKET?

Yes, but only if you live at an address at which DirecTV does NOT offer service (and only out-of-market games). You can check your eligibility here.

WHAT ABOUT NFL GAME PASS?

NFL Game Pass shows games that have already concluded. If you’re fine with on demand NON-live games, sign up for $99/year.

WHAT ABOUT TWITTER? I HEARD THEY WERE STREAMING THE NFL THIS YEAR.

Twitter is indeed streaming a number of games, but only Thursday night games, and not all of them.
