New Orleans (5-5), currently tied in record with the Minnesota Vikings and the San Francisco 49ers for what would be the NFC's final two Wild Card Playoff spots, will be looking to improve their standing in the conference race for the postseason, while the Bills (6 -4) are involved in a heated battle for the AFC East lead with the New England Patriots (7-4). This will be New Orleans' fourth time playing on Thanksgiving, all taking place since 2010 and all victories (at Dallas-2010, vs. Atlanta2018, at Atlanta-2019). While both the Bills and Saints share small market roots, they also have the commonality of being backed by two of the most vocal fan bases in the National Football League. Being in the friendly, warm confines of the Caesars Superdome on Thursday evening, should serve as an an advantage for New Orleans. Thursday will be the first time that the Bills and Saints will face each other on prime time. It also marks the start of a crucial stretch in the NFC postseason race, as it begins a period where four of the next six contests will take place inside the Caesars Superdome. After getting off to a 4-1 start, Buffalo will be looking to move back into a tie for first in the AFC East with the Patriots and capture their second consecutive division title to force an opponent to feel the effects of Highmark Stadium in Orchard Park, N.Y. in the month of January, needing to break a two-game road losing streak.

But fueled by a successful fourth and one attempt from the Buffalo 30-yard line on the subsequent possession where RB ﻿Mark Ingram II﻿ gained 25 yards, the Saints took a lead they wouldn't relinquish with a one-yard scoring rush by the running back.

After the game, the players stated that they need to execute better to give themselves a chance to win. After trailing early in the game against the Colts, the team couldn't find their footing, and the offense couldn't get in a rhythm. Turnovers have been the Achilles heel for the offense in their losses this season. After the game, Josh Allen put the blame on himself and stated that he needs to do a better job of protecting the football. With the short week, Allen explained how they can put an emphasis on fixing these issues while shifting focus to the Saints. Here's a list of notable notes from Sunday's game: Bills fall to 6-4 and now sit a half game behind the New England Patriots (7-4) in the AFC East Bills suffered their first home loss in the month of November since Nov. 4, 2018 (41-9 vs. Chicago) Bills produced 307 total yards and extended their streak of 20 games with at least 300 yards - the longest active streak in the NFL Bills snapped their streak of 18 games leading or tied at halftime – was the longest streak in the NFL coming into the game Tyler Bass snapped his streak of 16 consecutive made field goals – also the longest streak in the NFL coming into the game Read More: Colts 41, Bills 15 | Game recap, highlights & photos Bills quickly shift focus to Thursday's game after tough loss to Indianapolis Top 3 things we learned from Bills vs. Colts | Week 11 Top 5 storylines to follow for Bills at Saints | Week 12 NEW ORLEANS SAINTS WEEK 11 RECAP A lengthy injury report and the rushing attack of the Philadelphia Eagles was too much for the New Orleans Saints to overcome as they dropped their third consecutive game, this time a 40-29 defeat to the Eagles on Sunday, Nov. 21 at Lincoln Financial Field in Philadelphia.
