The Buffalo Bills are nowhere near the championship level team most everyone thought they would be. The biggest telltale factor is that the Bills had four takeaways against the Patriots and won by only six points. In the end, the Bills are clearly better than the Patriots, and held on to win 27-21 on Sunday at Highmark Stadium. The game was not as close as the score would indicate, as the mistake-prone Patriots had their fans yelling in anger for most of the game.

Despite some good moments from the Patriots in this game, including inducing two turnovers by the Dolphins, the Patriot offense did not make enough plays like they did last week and the Miami offense is way too much for the Patriot defense to handle. Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle each caught long touchdown passes as the Dolphins throttled the Patriots 31-17 on Sunday at Hard Rock Stadium.
