Jones - who threw for 310 yards in the win - noted that he wasn't impacted much by the weather, but did highlight how he likes practicing in the elements to get a better feel for what it could be like on game day. Jones has already started to get a taste of the northeast weather over the last few weeks, including during the Week 12 win over the Titans in Foxborough where there was even a few snow flurries coming down at times. With him now situated in New England for the foreseeable future, playing in these sorts of conditions - and playing well - will be key. That'll be a big challenge for the Jacksonville native in Jones, who played his college ball at Alabama. On Monday night, the temperature is forecasted to drop to 25 degrees in Buffalo with winds coming in at 20 to 30 mph.
So while we'll be looking at this game from that very basic point of view, there's also a fascinating side story that is worth watching: Mac Jones in the cold weather. At the moment, New England sits in first place in the division at 8-4, but Buffalo is only a half-game behind at 7-4, and earning the first of two head-to-heads left on the schedule could prove to be critical in tiebreaker scenarios.
