First look: Buffalo Bills at New England Patriots odds and lines
The AFC East race is coming down to the wire and there's no bigger game than Sunday's matchup between the New England Patriots (9-5) and Buffalo Bills (8-6). Kickoff will be at 1 p.m. ET Sunday afternoon at Gillette Stadium. Below, we look at the Bills vs. Patriots odds and lines; check back for our NFL picks and predictions.
The Bills snapped their two-game losing streak Sunday with a 31-14 win over the Carolina Panthers, getting back on track after losing five of their previous eight games.
Buffalo still hasn't won back-to-back games since Week 4 and 5, but at 8-6, the Bills are still right in the thick of things in the AFC.
The Patriots fell to the Colts Saturday night, which snapped their seven-game winning streak. As 1-point underdogs, the Patriots lost 27-17, finally coming back down to earth after a remarkable stretch of wins.
New England still holds a one-game lead on Buffalo and already beat the Bills in Week 13, but a loss will complicate things in the AFC East.

Bills at Patriots head-to-head

These teams already squared off once in Week 13, a game the Patriots won 14-10 in bad weather conditions. But, the Bills have played the Pats tough since QB Josh Allen really took his game to the next level in 2020.
