Perhaps this week’s loss has made you forget, but the Buffalo Bills are in a three-way tie for the lead in the AFC East. The New England Patriots have won the division eight straight times, setting an NFL record in the process, but make no mistake, they are vulnerable in 2017.
Remarkably, it’s the Patriots play at Foxborough that’s making them look suspect. The Patriots have always been a difficult out on the road but at home they were unstoppable. In Week 1, they got smoked late in the game by the Kansas City Chiefs before barely beating the rookie-led Texans two weeks later, 36-33.
