What to expect from Sunday Night Football's 49ers vs. Bills matchup
This is one of those games that feels like Buffalo's to lose. The Bills are 9-2, sitting at the top of the AFC North by a healthy margin, and most importantly for this game, undefeated this season at home. Quarterback Josh Allen is playing very well, they've got a high-powered offensive scheme, and they're Top 3 in the league in terms of points scored per game. Right now, Buffalo is looking at a Division championship that would catapult them to the playoffs, and from there to a potential Super Bowl berth. Granted, they may have to face fellow contenders like Baltimore and Kansas City along the way.

As for the 49ers, they've had a season plagued by injuries that have hit everyone from quarterbacks to running backs to wide receivers, but they still have plenty of weapons. Though it hasn't always translated to points, their offense is a Top 5 team this year in terms of yards per game, and their defense is in the Top 10 in terms of yards allowed. The talent is there, and they've delivered for some impressive wins this season, but at the moment they sit at 5-6, and they're on a two-game losing streak. Winning on the road against Buffalo would be a jumpstart for this team, but it's going to be an uphill battle the whole way.
