The Buffalo Bills managed to pull out a shutout 16-0 victory against the New England Patriots at Gillette Stadium. How did they do from a fantasy perspective?

Last week, when the Buffalo Bills hosted the Arizona Cardinals, marked the Bills’ first good game of the season — from both a fantasy perspective and reality perspective. However, many people were calling it a fluke and doubted it would happen in Week 4 vs. the Patriots.

Those doubters were wrong.

The Bills followed their 33-18 upset victory vs. Arizona with a 16-0 shutout road victory vs. the undefeated New England Patriots. And once again, the Bills finished with a productive fantasy day — despite being without Sammy Watkins for the second straight week.
