Buffalo enters Week 4 at 3-0 after a 24-16 win over the Los Angeles Chargers, while New England is 1-2 following a 35-6 loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars.

The stakes are already significant in the division despite this being the first meeting. A Patriots loss would drop New England three games behind Buffalo and give the Bills the early head-to-head advantage in the AFC East.

The matchup also brings back memories of last season. Buffalo was 4-0 and New England was 2-2 when the Patriots visited Buffalo in 2025, but New England won 23-20. That victory started a 10-game winning streak for the Patriots, who ultimately ended Buffalo’s five-year run atop the AFC East.

A victory would give the Bills their second straight 4-0 start to the season.
