They are 7-0 in game in which they have never trailed but 1-6 when they have had to play catch up.<\/p>\n<p>As usual, quarterback Josh Allen dictates the offense.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">There are so many questions about the <a rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/Bills?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#Bills<\/a> and if they are real.

Rookie quarterback Mac Jones threw just three passes and Damien Harris had 111 of New England\u2019s 222 rushing yards.<\/p>\n<p>The Patriots will likely try to establish the run again considering the Bills have allowed a total of 510 yards on the ground in their last three games. Harris, though, is questionable because of a hamstring injury that kept him out of last week\u2019s game.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Damien Harris 9th rushing touchdown of the season was a fun one. ??<a rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/P5T8Rpkuzw\">pic.twitter.com\/P5T8Rpkuzw<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; Pats Buzz (@PatsBuzz) <a rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/PatsBuzz\/status\/1468959843520106508?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">December 9, 2021<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>While the Bills lead the NFL in total defense and pass defense, they are 16<sup>th<\/sup> among the 32 teams against the run.

He needs two TDs to become the 15th rookie in NFL history to reach 3,000 yards passing and 20 scores.<\/p>\n<h3>Bills vs Patriots Recent History<\/h3>\n<p>New England is 36-7 against the Bills since the start of the 20th century but just 1-2 without Tom Brady at quarterback.<\/p>\n<p>The Patriots have a 39-22 record all-time in Boston, including 16-3 at Gillette Stadium.
