It’s game day, Bills Mafia! Two of the last three games have been in primetime for the Buffalo Bills and their one non-primetime game was on the road against the New York Jets. This is the first time this season where the Bills will host an opponent for a 1PM battle. Buffalo is looking to go 4-0 as they host the 0-3 New Orleans Saints.
There is an argument to be made that this could be a trap game for the Bills. They have a very weak opponent, that is in a different conference, coming to their home turf. The Bills have the better roster, coaching staff, and ultimately, the better quarterback by a mile. Not to mention, the Bills offense is lighting up the scoreboard through the first three weeks.
Despite all of these takes, the Bills still have to bring their A-game and need to show the rest of the league that they can make comeback wins and also make statement wins against weaker teams.
With that, we take a look at some important information for fans to know about this game, per the Buffalo Bills' PR X account.

Mini-history between Bills and Saints
The Bills and Saints have only faced each other 12 times since 1973, and the Saints currently lead the all-time series, 7-5, according to Pro Football Reference.
The last time these two teams met was in 2021 on Thanksgiving where the Bills dominated the Saints in a 31-6 victory. Prior to that win, the Saints had won five in a row from 2001-2017. That’s right, the Bills have had just one win this century against the Saints. Now granted, they don’t play each other that often but that is very surprising.
In Buffalo’s five wins against New Orleans, the Bills have scored an average of 31 points. There is a great chance that they could put up 30+ points again but because New Orleans has such a weak offense, maybe they don’t need to light up the scoreboard like they always do.
Kickoff is at 1PM EST and let's hope that the Bills can keep things rolling and get to 4-0.
