The Buffalo Bills shoot for their fourth win on the season when they play host to the Philadelphia Eagles. FOX will broadcast the game at 1:00 PM ET. Buffalo currently claims a 3-1 record. Philadelphia sits at 1-3.

The Bills are coming off a narrow 23-20 defeat against the Bengals, a game in which George Wilson played extraordinarily well with one interception and 12 tackles. In their previous outing, the Eagles lost by a slender 24-23 margin versus the 49ers. Michael Vick scored twice in addition to going 30 for 46 for 416 yards, 75 yards rushing and one pick.
