Buffalo Bills (5-9) Face Denver Broncos (8-6)
The Buffalo Bills play host to the Denver Broncos this week. Kickoff is at 1:00 PM ET on Saturday and the game can be seen on CBS. Buffalo comes into the game with a 5-9 overall record and 4-3 home record. Denver shows up with an 8-6 overall record and 5-2 away record.

Last week the Bills were defeated by the Dolphins 30-23, a game in which C.J. Spiller was the top player, running for 91 yards on 12 attempts and two total scores. Steve Johnson also contributed, hauling in five passes for 82 yards. The Broncos are fresh off a 41-23 defeat versus the Patriots. Tim Tebow completed 11 passes on 22 attempts for 194 yards passing, 93 yards rushing, two rushing touchdowns and no picks.
