The Buffalo Bills host the New England Patriots today in a game with serious playoff implications for both squads. While Buffalo has already won the AFC East, they can clinch the No. 2 seed with a victory. It will also ensure that they don’t have to travel to Arrowhead for a date with the Kansas City Chiefs for the third straight playoffs. For New England, the situation is easy: win and you’re in the playoffs.
Buffalo is obviously playing for playoff seeding today, but they’re playing for much more than that. They’re playing for each other.
