Indianapolis would like to shut down New England’s run game on Saturday night and make Jones step up, but is that a wise strategy?

Safety Adrian Phillips says everything checked out well on the right knee he injured in the closing minutes of New England’s Week 13 win over Buffalo.

In its game at Indianapolis on Saturday night, New England will have a focus on league-leading running back Jonathan Taylor.

David Andrews, Shaq Mason, Matt Judon, J.C. Jackson and Nick Folk have all made a huge impact this season.

The Patriots are in their bye week at the top of the AFC and on a seven-game winning streak, with rookie quarterback Mac Jones playing a key role.

In their win at Buffalo on Monday night, the Patriots attempted just three passes. The last time any team threw five or fewer was 1982.

New England threw just three passes in its 14-10 win over Buffalo, so ‘we can use our whole passing game,’ Bill Belichick says.

Buffalo’s final three drives entered the red zone, but the Bills came away with just three points in a 14-10 loss to New England.

New England throws the ball just three times and rushes 45 times for 229 yards.

Buffalo won the AFC East last season, but is again chasing New England, which has won six straight.
