The Seahawks vs Bills live stream is scheduled to begin at 1 p.m. ET/ 10 a.m. PT Sunday, November 8 on Fox.

Today's Seahawks vs Bills live is a must-watch, as it's expected to deliver one of the best matchups of the week. Each team has a distinguished season so far, and they both enter with a fair share of momentum, with wins in last week's games. 

But the teams play quite differently--the Seahawks with much bigger-scoring matchups. That gives Seattle a slight lead heading into this game, with oddsmakers favoring them by 3 points in this NFL live stream.

Seattle is doing everything bigger this year, averaging 34.3 points per game to Buffalo's 24.8; and it's driving for many more yards: 432.7 vs 382.9. Seattle's scoring power is centered on quarterback Russell Wilson, who leads the NFL with 26 touchdowns this season. And his plays tend to be bold: With 2,151 yards, he's ranked 5th in distance thrown. Wide receiver DK Metcalf has picked up 7 of those touchdown throws, tying him for first in the league. In fairness, though, Seattle has generally gone up against less powerful teams than Buffalo has faced this year, such as New England, Dallas and Minnesota (beating that last team by just one point).

Seattle meets a tough defense in Buffalo, which is allowing fewer points per game (24.9 to 28.4) and far fewer yards (370.6 vs a whopping 468.6). Their not so secret weapon is safety Jordan Poyer, who has racked up 58 tackles. Buffalo's scoring is softening up, though. Even with 10 fewer touchdowns than Wilson, Josh Allen still ranks 6th in the league in scoring, but his output is in decline. Allen scored a dozen touchdowns in his first four games, but has thrown just four TDs in the following four matches (along with four interceptions). 

As a result, the Bills 24-21 win over the Patriots was a lot tighter than it should be, given how soft New England has played this year. (Their previous win was over the 0-8 New York Jets.) Allen is going to have to get back to his season-opening performance for the Bills to compete against the far-tougher opponent that Seattle represents.

How to watch Seahawks vs Bills live stream with a VPN

If for some reason you've had to leave your own "bubble" — or you can't get FOX where you are for some strange reason — and you can't watch the Seahawks vs Bills live streams you want, you're not out of luck. With a virtual private network, or VPN, you can appear to be surfing the web from your home town (or somewhere that blackouts won't hit), and access the same streaming services you already paid for. 

Not sure which VPN is right for you? We've tested many different services and our pick for the best VPN overall is ExpressVPN. ExpressVPN offers superb speeds and excellent customer service, and IPVanish's low pricing is shocking.
