Patriots vs. Bills live updates: Score, news, discussion for NFL Week 4
Having lost two of their first three games of the season, the New England Patriots are already looking up in the AFC East standings. The reigning division champions are trailing the 3-0 Buffalo Bills by a significant margin already, and are under pressure to start making up some ground even this early in the season. […]
Patriots game day roster for Week 4 vs. Bills
The New England Patriots defense will be without cornerback Christian Gonzalez and defensive tackle Christian Barmore on Sunday against the Buffalo Bills, but it will have two other key members available. Edge defender Dre’Mont Jones and safety Craig Woodson will make their comebacks after missing last week’s loss in Jacksonville due to shoulder injuries (coincidentally […]
Patriots fans see problem with offensive line
Through the first three weeks of the season, the New England Patriots sit at 1-2 following a blowout loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars. The slow start is largely due to the offensive side of the football, as the Patriots rank last in the league in points per drive as Drake Maye has turned the ball […]
Patriots inactives for NFL Week 4 vs. Bills
The New England Patriots have finally gotten some good injury news. After already having to rule out two of their most valuable players — cornerback Christian Gonzalez and defensive tackle Christian Barmore — they did not have to deactivate any other starters ahead of their Week 4 matchup against the Buffalo Bills. All of their […]
Sunday Patriots Notes: Josh McDaniels wants offense to ‘stick with the process’
The New England Patriots are taking on the Buffalo Bills on Sunday for their first division game of the 2026 season. Similar to last year, this contest could have major ramifications on Mike Vrabel’s team: at 1-2 going up against a 3-0 opponent, a victory might have a similar effect as it had on the […]
Patriots vs. Bills live stream, kickoff time, TV channels for NFL Week 4
The New England Patriots’ first division game of the season has arrived, and it will see them go up against the undefeated Buffalo Bills. With the 1-2 Patriots already trailing their AFC East rivals in the standings, a win on the road would be big for Mike Vrabel and his team. Here is everything you […]
Patriots downgrade rookie cornerback Channing Canada on eve of Bills matchup
A third member of the active roster in Foxborough will not be available in Orchard Park. The New England Patriots officially downgraded rookie cornerback Channing Canada to out on the eve of Sunday’s game against the Buffalo Bills.

Patriots elevate veteran defensive backs Kindle Vildor, Mike Brown from practice squad for Week 4
Two veterans from the practice squad made the trip to Orchard Park. The New England Patriots announced the elevations of cornerback Kindle Vildor and safety Mike Brown on the eve of Sunday’s game against the unbeaten Buffalo Bills. Both are scheduled to revert following the 2026 AFC East opener. Vildor, 29, picked off one pass […]
Patriots worried about ‘second play’ with Bills QB Josh Allen
Josh Allen’s status as one of the best quarterbacks in the NFL is undisputed. What makes him such a dangerous and productive player is not just his arm talent, size and versatility, but how he uses a combination of his rare skills to become arguably the most frustration-inducing player in all of pro football. As […]
How the Patriots plan to replace Christian Gonzalez against the Bills
The New England Patriots’ task against the unbeaten Buffalo Bills this week has gotten significantly tougher. Christian Gonzalez, the team’s top cornerback and best overall player this season, has officially been ruled out of the contest due to a shoulder injury sustained last week. Gonzalez’s deactivation does not come as a surprise after he missed […]
Patriots make decision on starting right guard vs. Bills
For a second straight week, the New England Patriots had to find a new starting right guard. It looks like they have found one.

Patriots vs. Bills Friday injury report: Christian Gonzalez, Christian Barmore out for Week 4

Both extended starters remained sidelined for three straight practices in […]
NFL predictions: Will the Patriots upset the Bills in Week 4?
Arguably the most impactful win of the New England Patriots’ 2025 season came against their biggest rivals. In Week 5, they managed to upset the Buffalo Bills 23-20 in primetime — a win that ended up setting the tone for the rest of the season, and for the AFC East title returning to Foxborough for […]
Ben Brown ‘ready to roll’ should Patriots call upon him against Bills
Entering 2026, right guard was supposed to be a position of strength for the New England Patriots. Mike Onwenu had been their best offensive linemen for several years now, and even with plenty of football under his belt has remained a top-tier if somewhat underrated blocker in the run and pass game. However, three games […]

The New England Patriots are looking to put a blowout loss behind them as they get ready for a big divisional battle against Josh Allen and the Buffalo Bills. So, let’s get into this week’s #PostPulpit Mailbag. I know it is early but I thought we would see improvements in the run game with the […]
Bills TE Dalton Kincaid a focal point for Patriots defense this week
The Buffalo Bills offense has been one of the best in the NFL so far this season, and a big reason why is the play of its top tight end. Dalton Kincaid has been fantastic lately. And don’t just take our word for it: that is exactly how New England Patriots head coach Mike Vrabel […]
Patriots vs. Bills weather forecast for NFL Week 4
Fresh off a blowout loss in the Florida heat, the New England Patriots will return to more friendly playing conditions in Week 4.

Mike Vrabel highlights ‘underrated part’ of Bills’ success ahead of Patriots game

The Buffalo Bills have been a model of stability up front, and are set to go with the same starting five on Sunday they have used all season. The consistency in personnel […]
Patriots vs. Bills Thursday injury report: Christian Gonzalez misses second straight session
The New England Patriots headed out to practice without four members of the active roster on Thursday, including Christian Gonzalez.

Maye took several big hits inside the pocket […]
Patriots updated roster and depth chart for 2026 regular season
The New England Patriots’ regular season is underway, which also means that their roster and practice squad will undergo near-constant change. For reference, between the opener and regular season finale alone last season, the eventual conference champions made 102 different transactions. It remains to be seen how many there will be in 2026, but things […]
Patriots News: Pats-Bills keys to victory, jump-starting the McOffense
Andrew Callahan wrote an article today, telling Drake Maye to ‘steer into the skid at Buffalo’. Because it’s behind a paywall, I’ll share a few excerpts here: “Drake Maye, once the face of everything glowing about this franchise, is now the driver and engine of their failures. Maye needs to, in Mike Vrabel’s words, loosen his grip. […]
Drake Maye injury: Patriots QB downplays shoulder issue
The New England Patriots released their first injury report leading up to the Week 4 game with the Buffalo Bills on Wednesday, and besides including multiple starters as absentees it also featured quarterback Drake Maye.
