Bills CB Christian Benford and LB Terrel Bernard are inactive for today's game against the Patriots. That leaves Buffalo down its lead corner. Bernard's absence is probably good news for Buffalo's run defense, which has allowed 5.5 yards per carry with him on the field vs. 3.4 with Shaq Thompson in his place.
