It’s game day, Bills Mafia! After going through the bye week last Sunday, the Buffalo Bills are back in action and will be playing every week for the rest of the regular season, at the minimum. They are looking to get back into the win column after two consecutive losses before their bye week.
Sean McDermott will lead the Bills into Carolina to take on the Panthers, the team that he was the defensive coordinator for before becoming the head coach of the Bills. Carolina comes into this game at 4-3, while the Bills are at 4-2.
This will be the the third NFC South team that the Bills will face. They took down the Saints in Week 4, but lost to the Falcons in Week 6. Let’s hope that they leave Carolina with a win and get some momentum going moving forward.
Here is some information for fans to know about the game going into today's matchup, per the Bills' PR X account.
