The Buffalo Bills will play another nationally televised game this season. The NFL has announced that Buffalo’s Week 16 contest at New England will be moved to Saturday afternoon.

The move makes complete sense, as it puts two prospective playoff teams on display. New England is on its way to yet another AFC East crown and has first-round bye playoff implications for the six-time Super Bowl Champions. Meanwhile, this penultimate game for the Bills could go a long way at seeing Buffalo earn a Wild Card playoff berth.
Buffalo lost to New England during Week 4 action, as the Patriots won 16-10 at New Era Field. During that game, Bills quarterback Josh Allen received a vicious helmet-to-helmet, rendering him unavailable to finish the game.
