The Buffalo Bills’ Week 3 tilt against the Carolina Panthers kicks off on Sunday at 1 p.m. in Charlotte, N.C.

It’s a reunion game for Buffalo Bills head coach Sean McDermott and general manager Brandon Beane.

With the Bills being underdogs this weekend against the Carolina Panthers, if there’s a game to get up for this is the one. McDermott seems to have already won the respect of his players, and now’s an opportunity for them to prove it to their coach.

The Bills victory over the New York Jets barely moved the needle. In some cases, Buffalo moved down in the national power rankings. But beating the Panthers, on the road; now that would be an accomplishment.

You know the drill, each week during the regular season this column will provide the three ways the Bills can secure a victory. So, without further ado, here are the Three Keys to the Game for the matchup against the Panthers, which kicks off Sunday at 1 p.m. at Bank of America Stadium on CBS.
