Patriots vs Bills: New England’s offense need to keep Buffalo’s defense on its toes

The New England Patriots have averaged 35.3 points over their first three games, but the offense was not always in perfect sync along the way — something it better be on Sunday, when the team is visiting the Buffalo Bills in a battle for AFC East supremacy (for now, at least). The Bills field one of the better defenses in the NFL, after all, and are certainly capable of impacting the game’s rhythm and momentum.

Just take a look at the numbers: Buffalo’s defense surrendered just 39 total points so far this season, which ties the unit for third best league-wide.
