Buffalo Bills vs. New England Patriots: Picks
The Buffalo Bills offense has struggled in back-to-back weeks out of the gate. However, the Bills have had success against New England as of late, and Buffalo will be looking to make a statement here in week 7.
After a bad game last week, take Josh Allen over 1.5 passing touchdowns at -115. The quarterback has gone over 1.5 passing touchdowns in each of the last three games.
Mac Jones, meanwhile, has not looked good this season and has struggled against the Buffalo Bills. This Bills defense is also one of the best in the league, so take Jones to throw an interception at -160.

Bills vs. Patriots: Prediction
The Buffalo Bills had a disappointing game last week and now go on the road to play a Mac Jones-led New England Patriots team against whom the Bills have had great success. Josh Allen and Buffalo's offense should rebound nicely here in a blowout win.
Prediction: Bills 31, Patriots 10
