That’s how Mike Vrabel has described Sunday’s showdown with the Bills, a perfectly timed visit as the Patriots try to end Buffalo’s five-year reign as AFC East champions. If the Pats win, they clinch the division.

Vrabel was referring to a pair of Patriots starters currently on injured reserve, left tackle Will Campbell and defensive lineman Milton Williams. The former suffered a reported MCL sprain in Week 12 against the Cincinnati Bengals, with the latter hurting his ankle the previous game against the New York Jets.

FOXBOROUGH — Patriots coach Mike Vrabel opened his Wednesday press conference with a note of support for the family of Patriots Hall of Famer Kevin Faulk.

What’s the latest on Will Campbell and Milton Williams? Here’s what Mike Vrabel had to say about the Patriots’ injured linemen today.

The AFC East title is on the line, and the reigning NFL MVP will have his chance to say something about it when the Buffalo Bills visit the New England Patriots on December 14.
