Summary

Buffalo Bills face a division-defining showdown as Josh Allen looks to keep playoff hopes alive against the surging New England Patriots. Will Allen’s leadership and the Bills’ revamped run game be enough to stop Drake Maye and Mike Vrabel’s Patriots from snatching the AFC East crown? With Christian Benford’s status uncertain due to a last-minute toe injury, defensive depth takes center stage—all eyes on key roster tweaks, including MJ Devonshire joining the practice squad. Joe Marino delivers bold predictions on James Cook’s touchdown potential, the Bills’ rushing attack, and the fate of the turnover battle. Injury expert Kyle Trimble offers granular updates on Christian Benford, Terrell Bernard, Spencer Brown, and Joey Bosa, weighing in on how these medical concerns shape Buffalo’s defensive outlook. Can Buffalo’s offensive stars and a resilient defense rise to the occasion, or are we witnessing a new era in the AFC East?
