FOXBORO -- New England will clash with the Bills for the second time this year on an unseasonably warm November day. There are still small piles of snow in the colder corners of the Gillette Stadium parking lots, but two hours before kickoff, the temperature is near 60 degrees. Many of the players from both sides warmed up in shorts and t-shirts.
Humidity is expected to rise from 62-percent between 1 and 3 PM. There's also a light, 10 mile per hour south-southwest wind bothering the bright orange flags attached to both uprights.
There are a few changes to the field aesthetics because of the NFL's initiative to honor military veterans and active duty service members this weekend. The bottom of each goalpost is wrapped in desert camouflage padding with a ribbon displayed on both sides. There's also an on-field stencil proclaiming "SALUTE TO SERVICE" in the back of each end zone. Keep an eye out for other Veteran's Day details.
