The Buffalo Bills could be forgiven if they were to look past the New England Patriots this weekend.
After all, the Bills have already clinched the AFC East and are once again regarded as legitimate Super Bowl contenders. The Patriots, meanwhile, are still rebuilding and haven't posed a serious threat to the Bills since Tom Brady left New England.
However, Bills head coach Sean McDermott will not allow his team to rest easy against their division rivals this weekend, despite the very obvious disparity between them.
"A champion's mindset has a certain degree of discipline that goes along with it," McDermott said. "They know what they're after. So, that's the type of discipline we have to have moving forward every week.
"Every week, it's a new challenge. We certainly have a ton of respect for this football team. They've played really good football, especially since the quarterback has taken over."
The game will be available in a number of regions for free via NFL Game Pass on DAZN.
