Patriots Edge Bills on 52-Yard Kick, End Buffalo’s Perfect Start

Costly mistakes left Buffalo vulnerable to New England’s composed final drive.

Overview

  • Drake Maye guided a 37-yard march that set up rookie Andy Borregales’ 52-yard field goal with 15 seconds left for a 23-20 win.
  • Buffalo committed three turnovers—two charged to Josh Allen with a botched handoff and a red-zone interception by Marcus Jones—ending a 26-game run without losing the turnover battle.
  • In his Orchard Park return, Stefon Diggs caught 10 passes for 146 yards and helped spring both of Rhamondre Stevenson’s touchdowns.
  • The game was sloppy early, with the Bills flagged eight times for 65 yards in the first half as both sides piled up penalties.
  • The Bills fell to 4-1, saw their 14-game regular-season home win streak snapped, and left the NFL without an unbeaten team; Allen called it “piss poor offense.”
