The latest weather forecast for the Buffalo area, and Orchard Park, N.Y., specifically, calls for cold temperatures and fierce gusts of wind throughout the night.

Here's the weather forecast for Orchard Park on Monday night, via NBC10 Boston.

The wind could be the biggest weather-related factor in this game. It's not going to be easy passing or kicking with gusts potentially reaching as high as 50 mph.

If the weather is an issue, we should expect the Patriots to use a run-heavy game plan. New England is averaging 115.3 rushing yards per game (4.1 per carry) with 14 touchdowns through 12 games.

The winner of this Patriots-Bills showdown will enter Week 14 in first place in the AFC East division.
