NFL Update With Pats/Bills Notes

Seven NFL teams (the Pats, Bills, Chiefs, Cowboys, Packers, Rams and 49ers) are (3-0), while the surprising Detroit Lions are (2-0-1).

Two of the 7, the defending champion New England Patriots and the Buffalo Bills meet for the 60th consecutive year in regular season play (‘1960-1969 in the AFL East and 1970-2019 in the AFC East) this Sunday in Buffalo.

New England, a touchdown favorite this week, is (74-43-1) vs Buffalo and (32-4) in the 18 seasons (’01-’18), of essentially sustained greatness, under coach Bill Belichick and with Tom Brady at the all important, quarterback position.

Recently, original Boston Patriots’ player and AFL all star running back, Larry Garron passed away at age 82.

In 1961, vs the Bills, Larry went 85 yards for a touchdown, which is still the longest touchdown run in Pats’ history.
