NFL Week 5 Tuesday Night Football: Patriots rooting guide, how to watch, open thread

For only the second time since the 1940s, the NFL will have a game on Tuesday night: the Coronavirus pandemic and its impact on the Tennessee Titans made it possible, and forced the league to schedule their game against the visiting Buffalo Bills to tonight. The game itself should be a fun one, with New England Patriots fans surely keeping a close eye on both teams — especially the one in their team’s division.

With that said, here’s how you can watch the game and who you should root for.

Patriots rooting guide: Go Titans! While Tennessee is one of the AFC’s best teams so far this season, New England fans should still root for the club — not just because of all the Patriots connections: the primary reason is that a Bills loss would help the 2-2 Patriots keep up in the race for the AFC East title. While New England very much controls its own destiny given that the two rivals still have two meetings scheduled, any help is likely appreciated.
