Some links from Buffalo on the Bills' perspective entering Sunday's game:

If the Bills beat the Patriots, where would it rank among the team's upset wins in franchise history? The Democrat & Chronicle attempts to answer that question.

CB Jabari Greer, who estimated he was covering WR Randy Moss 60-75 percent of the time in the first meeting between the Bills and Patriots, talks to the Buffalo News about the challenge of the rematch.

The Buffalo News points out a key matchup -- the Patriots' slot receiver against the Bills' nickel cornerback. The Bills have been playing CB Kiwaukee Thomas in that role, but he was placed on injured reserve after injuring his groin against the Dolphins this past Sunday. Who will fill the void against Patriots WR Wes Welker?

The Democrat & Chronicle looks at some of the Bills' scout team players who are emulating top Patriots players.

With RB Marshawn Lynch hobbled by an ankle injury, the Buffalo News examines the situation and notes that rookie Dwayne Wright -- a fourth-round draft choice out of Fresno State -- hopes to be the next "unknown" running back to make a mark in the NFL this season.

Do you suppose perhaps Belichick called Pat Hill recently and asked him about Wright?
