Welcome to Season 9, Episode 15 of the Unconventional Preview, a serious-yet-lighthearted, nostalgia-tinted look at the Patriots’ weekly matchup.
No other AFC East team got walloped with the butt-end of the Patriots’ dynasty more often than the Bills. Yes, even including the Jets.
Bill Belichick is 35-7 against the Bills in his career – 35-6 since he became coach of the Patriots before the 2000 season. The Patriots beat the Bills 15 straight times – sweeping both annual matchups for seven seasons in a row — from the 31-0 rout in the 2003 season finale until the Bills snapped the streak with a 34-31 win in Week 3 of the 2011 season.
