After a successful first game at New Highmark Stadium against the Detroit Lions, the Buffalo Bills are back at home in Week 3. This time, they're welcoming the Los Angeles Chargers, a team off to an 0-2 start.

Even with the Bills sitting at 2-0, and their key pieces projected to be available, expecting this one to be easy would be a mistake. Los Angeles might not have found its rhythm just yet, but they've won 11 games in each of their first two seasons with Jim Harbaugh as their head coach. Harbaugh is also wildly successful, with a career record of 66-33-1.

That said, the Bills are still favored in this one thanks to the way stars such as Josh Allen, Greg Rousseau, Dalton Kincaid and James Cook are currently playing. With the stage set, let's check out which broadcasters will be on the call, who will ref the game, and what both teams will be wearing.

Buffalo Bills' Week 3 Uniform

This is the weekend many fans have dreaded, the debut of the "Nickel City" uniform. The alternate jersey was introduced this offseason and was met with a wave of criticism. Allen tried to stand up for the alternate, but fans are still less than thrilled to see their team wearing the grey threads with the incredibly confusing bison-less helmet.

Helmet: Blue Alternate
Jersey: Nickel City Grey
Pants: Nickel City Grey

Los Angeles Chargers' Week 3 Uniform

The Chargers will wear all white in this one, as this is set to be an oddly unsatisfying visual display on Sunday.

Helmet: White
Jersey: White
Pants: White

This game will kick off at 1:00 p.m. EST on FOX at New Highmark Stadium in Orchard Park, New York.
