What went wrong for the Patriots against the Bills in Week 16

The New England Patriots lost on Sunday in a beatdown from the Buffalo Bills. Even when the score drew close, the Bills seemed to have the ability to convert every gotta-have-it scenario and put up points. Buffalo won, 33-21, at Gillette Stadium and took away control of the AFC East from the Patriots.

Here’s a look at what went wrong for New England on Sunday against its division rival.
