Buffalo has lost four of its last five games, including a 21-9 setback to the Houston Texans as 11-point road underdogs, while going UNDER the total for the second time in three contests.\u00a0 The Bills rank sixth in the NFL in gaining 141.3 yards per game on the ground, but many are wondering why the offense isn\u2019t getting the ball to running back C.J. Spiller more often.\u00a0 \u201cThat\u2019s not my job description,\u201d Spiller commented this week.\u00a0 He leads the league in gaining 7.2 yards per carry.\u00a0 Buffalo is 1-3 ATS as a road underdog this season.<\/p>\n

New England is coming off its bye week after capturing a convincing 45-7 win over the St. Louis Rams as 7.5-point favorites in London, while going OVER the total for the sixth straight game.\u00a0 \u201cI think we can improve a lot,\u201d stated Patriots head coach Bill Belichick.\u00a0 The Patriots lead the NFL in scoring 32.8 points and gaining 440.8 yards per game.\u00a0 It\u2019s not just quarterback Tom Brady that opponents need to worry about, as the offense is gaining 149.6 yards per game on the ground.\u00a0 New England is 0-2 ATS as a favorite of 10 or more points this season.<\/p>\n

The Patriots own the league\u2019s highest winning percentage (.794) in division games from November until the end of the season since 2002.\u00a0 New England has gone 10-0 against Buffalo when playing inside Gillette Stadium, while it enters wit ha 63-41-1 all-time edge in the series.\u00a0 Belichick has compiled a 57-21 all-time regular record against AFC East opponents during his time with the franchise.<\/p>\n
