Josh Allen and the Buffalo Bills took care of business on the road, beating the Las Vegas Raiders 23-13 on Sunday in Las Vegas. It was a game of momentum swings early, but Buffalo pulled away in the second half to improve to 5-1 on the season.
First Half: Back-and-Forth Battle
The game opened as a kicking duel. Tyler Bass put Buffalo on the board first with a 44-yard field goal, but the Raiders answered when rookie Ashton Jeanty punched in a 1-yard rushing touchdown for a 7-3 lead.
Bass added a 28-yarder to make it 7-6, then Josh Allen found Khalil Shakir for a 9-yard touchdown pass, giving the Bills a 13-7 edge. Las Vegas refused to fold before halftime, though, as Matt Gay drilled field goals from 35 and 27 yards to knot the score at 13-13 heading into the locker room.
Bills Pull Away After the Break
Buffalo seized control in the third quarter. Bass nailed a 47-yard field goal to retake the lead at 16-13, and Allen struck again – this time connecting with Keon Coleman for a 12-yard touchdown that stretched the advantage to 23-13.
The Raiders had no answer from there. Allen’s two touchdown passes were the difference, while Buffalo’s defense tightened up when it mattered most, shutting Las Vegas out in the second half. The Bills head home happy, while the Raiders drop to 3-3.
