Bills 24, Bucs 18 | Game recap, highlights and stats to know


After Allen’s interception, Mayfield took just two plays before throwing a touchdown pass to Godwin, who made an impressive catch to tie the game before Kincaid’s touchdown gave Buffalo the lead back at halftime.

Allen went right back to Kincaid to begin the third quarter, finding him for an 18-yard gain on the offenses’ first play. Allen led an efficient 9-play drive that ended in a quick pass to Gabe Davis for a touchdown that would be their last of the day.

Six consecutive punts followed, with each team struggling to put together scoring drives. Bills punter Sam Martin landed three of his four punts inside the 10-yard line, with two of them downed within the 5-yard line.

His final punt bounced up and Cam Lewis made a nice play in an attempt to down the ball, but it rolled into the end zone for a touchback.

Tampa Bay threatened Buffalo’s lead late in the game after a long drive ended in a touchdown catch from Mike Evans and a successful two-point conversion. After Buffalo was forced to punt, Mayfield drove the Bucs to their own 45-yard line, where they attempted a Hail Mary.

As a cluster of Bills defenders and Bucs receivers leapt for the ball, it fell onto the blue turf of the Bills end zone and the game was over.

The Bills improve to 5-3 on the season, and will travel to Cincinnati next Sunday where they will face the Bengals at 8:20 p.m.
