Houston Texans game early in the season
One of the most anticipated games of the season for the Buffalo Bills will be when they go on the road to play the Houston Texans. This game should have significant playoff implications as both teams are expected to be in the playoffs and head-to-head matchups is a key tiebreaker when it comes to seeding if the two teams end with the same record.
Aside from the playoff implications, this will have plenty of headlines as it will be the first game that Stefon Diggs will be playing against his former team. The Bills traded Diggs last month ahead of the NFL Draft in a move that appeared due in large part to the top wide receiver's comments made during the offseason.
There is no question that Diggs will be motivated to prove the Buffalo Bills made a mistake by trading him this offseason. For the Bills, it will be best to get this game out of the way so it is not a constant point of discussion and is dragged out over the entire season.
