Since the Buffalo Bills came into existence, they have played 34 postseason contests, but only twice have the Bills taken on the New England Patriots in the postseason.

Buffalo’s postseason debut came at home at War Memorial Stadium against the then-Boston Patriots during the 1963 season AFL East play-in game, a contest played in snow and inclement weather. That day, the extreme weather was a factor and snow limited the power running of Bills legend Cookie Gilchrist during a 26-8 loss to Boston.

Fifty-nine seasons later, the third-seeded Bills welcome the sixth-seeded Patriots to Highmark Stadium for an 8:15 PM Saturday showdown, with conditions expected to resemble that 1963 playoff game, Saturday’s game is the 125th meeting all-time between the Bills and New England, with the Patriots leading the series 77-46-1.

Buffalo is listed as a four-point favorite at home vs. the Patriots. The Bills will be wearing their blue jerseys with white pants and white helmet. Here are all the ways to catch Saturday’s game from home:
