The Patriots' matchup with the Ravens on Sunday night will be big for narratives, but not that vital to their playoff positioning.

The Buffalo Bills, led by quarterback Josh Allen, face the New England Patriots, led by quarterback Drake Maye, on Sunday, Dec. 14, 2025 at Gillette Stadium in Foxborough, Mass.
Sunday’s game at Gillette Stadium might provide similar theatrical conditions under snowy skies. The Patriots have won 10 straight games, but the Bills are slight favorites on the road. Josh Allen and the Bills have won two straight contests, including a 39-34 victory over the Bengals last week.
This will be the much-anticipated rematch from the first meeting between the two teams back in Week 5, when the Patriots stunned the Bills in a 23-20 upset win on the road. Patriots second-year quarterback Drake Maye outdueled Bills MVP quarterback Josh Allen and picked up the team's biggest win so far this season.
But Allen and Buffalo were undeterred. Ray Davis had a huge kick return to open the second half, and Allen capped the drive with a 4-yard touchdown to Dawson Knox. Then, the maligned Buffalo defense, shredded throughout the first half, got a three-and-out, and the Bills marched down the field again, with Cook powering in from 3 yards out.
