The Patriots return to the friendly confines of Gillette Stadium for a huge matchup with the Buffalo Bills for control of the AFC East. The winner on Sunday will basically have the division sewed up.
A Patriots victory will give them a two-game lead with two to play, against Jacksonville and then in Miami. A Buffalo win would give them the tie-breaker over the Patriots and with Atlanta and the Jets remaining.
A win on Sunday would give the team their 10th victory of the season, which would be the 27th time in team history. It would be a huge win for the team as a year ago they looked to be in complete rebuild mode and were swept by Buffalo.
