BUFFALO, N.Y.\u00a0\u2014\u00a0The undefeated Buffalo Bills are preparing for their second game at their just-opened Highmark Stadium.<\/p>\n
The winless Chargers<\/a>, meanwhile, are hoping they have discovered their low mark.<\/p>\n They are 0-2<\/a> for the first time in the head coaching career of Jim Harbaugh<\/a>, including both his college and pro jobs. What\u2019s more, they\u2019re at risk of dropping to 0-3 for the first time since 2017, their first season after relocating to Los Angeles.<\/p>\n That was the sixth 0-3 start in the history of the Chargers franchise, and the previous two times \u2014 2000 and 2003 \u2014 the club wound up with the No. 1 overall pick.<\/p>\n \u201cThere\u2019s no time for us to be patient with the way we\u2019re playing,\u201d Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert<\/a> told reporters this week.<\/p>\n After losing consecutive games to the Arizona Cardinals<\/a> and Las Vegas Raiders<\/a> by identical scores of 26-14, the Chargers face a team that scored a combined 77 points in its first two games. The Bills beat the Houston Texans 36-31, then the Detroit Lions 41-31. They are favored by seven over the Chargers.<\/p>\n Worth noting, of course, is the Bills have surrendered 31 points in both of their games, tying them with Carolina for the second-most points allowed through the first two games. <\/p>\n Among the players who won\u2019t be on the field for the Chargers on Sunday will be tight ends David Njoku and Charlie Kolar, both significant offseason acquisitions.<\/p>\n Njoku (fibula) is on injured reserve, which means he will miss at least four games, and Kolar (forearm) has been ruled out for the Buffalo game.<\/p>\n Key injuries<\/p>\n Chargers: DT Dalvin Tomlinson (hamstring) out; CB Elijah Molden (hamstring) out; WR Brenen Thompson (quadriceps) out; OT Trey Pipkins III out; G Kayode Awosika out; TE Charlie Kolar (forearm) out.<\/p>\n Bills: DT T.J. Sanders (appendix) out; CB Jordan Hancock (hamstring) out; CB Dorian Strong (neck) out.<\/p>\n How to watch and listen to Chargers vs. Bills<\/p>\n The Chargers and the Bills will play Sunday at 10 a.m. PDT at Highmark Stadium in Orchard Park, N.Y.

Stranger turnarounds have happened. It\u2019s a tall order for a group that looked hopelessly disjointed in the first two weeks to travel across the country and humble one of the hottest teams in the league. <\/p>\n Sam Farmer\u2019s pick: Bills 27, Chargers 23<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"BUFFALO, N.Y.\u00a0\u2014\u00a0The undefeated Buffalo Bills are preparing for their second game at their just-opened Highmark Stadium.
