The Buffalo Bills and New England Patriots played to the tune of a one score, 14-10 final, in their first meeting in Week 13.
The Patriots (9-5) had the much better looking outing that day, but still, the Bills (8-6) kept it close.
Prior to the first meeting, the “experts” polled from NFL Pickwatch were at a dead split. Half chose Buffalo to win while another picked New England.
With the high stakes heading into Week 16, we’re seeing the experts nearly in the same position as before. The writers, analysis and talking heads on television are just about at a split again… but there is a slight edge.
The Patriots have 53 percent of the experts picking them over the Bills.
Among those picking Buffalo include: Colleen Wolfe (NFL.com), Dan Graziano (ESPN), Domonique Foxworth (ESPN) and Mike Clay (ESPN).
On the flip side, here’s a faction of those picking New England (as always, feel free to remind them they were wrong if the Bills win): Seth Wickersham (ESPN), Daniel Jeremiah (NFL.com), Sam Acho (ESPN), and Nick Shook (NFL.com).
