ORCHARD PARK, NEW YORK - SEPTEMBER 07: Josh Allen #17 of the Buffalo Bills reacts after scoring a touchdown against the Baltimore Ravens during the fourth quarter at Highmark Stadium on September 07, 2025 in Orchard Park, New York.

Overview

  • National lists vaulted Buffalo near the top after Week 1, with ESPN and Sports Illustrated ranking the Bills No. 1 and NFL.com placing them No. 2.
  • Josh Allen delivered 394 passing yards, 30 rushing yards and four total touchdowns, including 251 passing yards and three scores in the fourth quarter.
  • The victory came after Buffalo erased a 15-point deficit late to beat Baltimore 41-40 on Sunday night.
  • Analysts, including Fox Sports’ Colin Cowherd, warned that Buffalo’s path to big wins appears to rely on Allen’s ‘Superman’ efforts.
  • Defensive worries persisted after the Ravens gained 432 yards at 8.6 yards per play, though veteran kicker Matt Prater steadied special teams with a 32-yard game-winner and a perfect debut.
