New England is in an unfamiliar position with a 2-4 record while losing three in a row for the first time in 286 games. However, the linemaker still has immense confidence in Bill Belichick to turn it around as the Patriots are underdogs by just a little more than a field goal in this matchup. Cam Newton hasn't been the same since he sat out with COVID as he completed only 9 of 15 passes for 98 yards with three interceptions in the loss to San Francisco. Buffalo hasn't been nearly as impressive as it was its first four games as the Bills then lost to Tennessee and Kansas City before beating the hapless Jets with six field goals. Josh Allen finished 30 of 43 for 307 yards, but he couldn't get his offense into the end zone. New England has won 34 of its last 38 games against Buffalo, which will be looking at this game as a milestone in its quest to be a championship contender. However, it is never smart to underestimate Belichick, and Newton will be fighting for his job. The Bills haven't beaten the Pats since 2016, New England is 8-0 ATS in Week 8, and the Patriots have covered seven of their last 10 as underdogs. The Patriots are 13-3 ATS the last 16 meetings at Buffalo. Take the Patriots.
