Late Surge Ends Long Streak
Josh Allen guided the Buffalo Bills to a 37-34 overtime victory over the Los Angeles Rams. The win marked his first overtime success after an 0-7 mark in those situations. In the fourth quarter and overtime, Allen went 5-for-5 for 121 passing yards while adding six rushes for 91 yards and a touchdown plus a successful two-point conversion. Edge defender Greg Rousseau blocked a potential game-winning field goal to keep the contest alive.
Ground Attack Seals Outcome
The Bills leaned on the run after the blocked kick. Running back James Cook and Allen combined for four carries in overtime. Allen's two rushes gained 19 and 13 yards, bringing his game rushing total to 121 yards. Kicker Tyler Bass then connected on a 45-yard field goal to end the game.
Bumpy Path to Victory
Buffalo committed 13 penalties, surrendered 40 completions and turned the ball over twice, including once in overtime. The team also struggled on third downs on both sides of the ball. Despite those issues, Allen's late production proved decisive in a contest where the passing game faced limitations without key targets.
