We are just over 24 hours before kickoff takes place at Gillette Stadium. There’s a lot on the line and Bills fans are hoping that Josh Allen and company can leave New England with an upset win. That’s right, the Bills are the ones that are going to have to upset their opponent. It’s a little bit of unfamiliar territory.

New England beat Buffalo in Orchard Park back in October, so the Bills owe them payback. The Patriots are a red hot team and haven’t lost a game since September. Buffalo has been inconsistent at times this season, but they do have a two game winning streak. 

There’s no doubt that the Patriots have one of the most complete teams, but they are beatable just like any other team. With this being a division game and them already seeing each other earlier this season, the Bills should have a lot of familiarity and know how to contain certain impactful players that the Patriots have.

Patriots players that Bills fans don’t need to worry about in Week 15WR Stefon Diggs

That’s right, I’m taking a huge risk by putting Stefon Diggs on this list. He certainly got the best of Buffalo in Week 5, but not this time around. Since his dominant performance against the Bills, Diggs has only had one game of over 100 yards. Buffalo knows that Diggs is going to be Drake Maye’s go-to guy so it’s quite simple…focus on Diggs and make another player who does not have history with Buffalo try to beat this secondary.

DL Christian Barmore

Christian Barmore always plays well against the Bills and he hurts them against the run, and knows how to provide pressure against the pass. He can play off the edge or in the middle of the line. However, the Bills’ offensive line is not only getting healthier (Spencer Brown is set up to return this week), but they have been solid in pass protection the last couple of weeks.

RB Rhamondre Stevenson

TreVeyon Henderson has become more involved in the Patriots’ rushing attack as the season has progressed, but Rhamondre Stevenson is still involved in the offense. However, the Bills should be more focused on the rookie running back out of Ohio State. While Stevenson will get his carries, he shouldn’t be the main focus for Buffalo’s run-defense.
