The Buffalo Bills’ Week 7 tilt against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers kicks off 1 p.m. Sunday in Orchard Park.

Sunday marks the start of a stretch of five winnable games for the Buffalo Bills.

With a banged up Tampa Bay Buccaneers squad coming to town, the Bills will enter the cross-conference matchup as favorites and with the chance to move two games over .500. Already sitting in the top wild card slot, the Bills can only steady their hold on the position with a win.

Like the New York Yankees, the Bills could continue their impressive, and unexpected, run in a season many had counted the team out of before it even started.

However, Tampa Bay brings loads of talent on both sides of the ball, so the Bills will certainly have their hands full.

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 Buccaneers, which kicks off 1 p.m. Sunday at New Era Field on FOX.
