One AFC East team will advance to next week's Divisional Round of the 2022 NFL playoffs, and the other will go home until next year when the Buffalo Bills and New England Patriots collide for the third time this season in a Super Wild Card Weekend game on Saturday night at Highmark Stadium in Orchard Park, N.Y. The teams split the earlier two matchups; the Patriots (10-7) won in Week 13 in Buffalo, while the Bills (11-6) prevailed in Week 16 in Foxborough, Mass. But Saturday's game will be just the second postseason matchup between the teams. In the AFL Divisional Round in 1963, the Patriots defeated the Bills 26-8.
Kickoff is set for 8:15 p.m. ET on CBS. Buffalo is a five-point favorite in the latest Bills vs. Patriots odds from Caesars Sportsbook while the over-under for total points scored is 43.
