FOXBORO, Mass. (WROC) — The Bills offense woke up in the fourth quarter, scoring two touchdowns to take a 25-22 lead. However, it was all for naught as the Patriots responded with a score of their own to take down the Bills 29-25.
Josh Allen threw a touchdown to Stefon Diggs to start the rally and the offense got the ball right back when Jordan Poyer forced a fumble.
The Bills converted for another touchdown, this coming on a QB sneak by Allen to take the lead 25-22 with 1:58 remaining.
However, Mac Jones led the Patriots on a two-minute drive, needing just eight plays to go 75 yards, capping off the drive with a touchdown to Mike Gesicki to take the lead for good.
Josh Allen finished with 27 completions on 41 attempts for 365 yards, two touchdowns, and one interception.
For the third straight week, the Bills started ice-cold. Trailing 3-0 after a New England first-drive field goal, Allen threw an interception on his very first throw. Allen was looking for Dawson Knox down the field and did not see Jabrill Peppers lurking in coverage, who made the snag.
The Patriots took advantage, controlling the line of scrimmage and capping off a 45-yard drive with a two-yard Ezekiel Elliot touchdown run to make it 10-0.
The Bills appeared to answer with a touchdown on the ensuing drive, as Knox was wide-open in the end zone for a score. However, he was open because Latavius Murray bulldozed a Patriot defender and was called for offensive pass interference. The Bills settled for a field goal and trailed 10-3.
Both teams traded field goal attempts on their next two drives, but the Patriots made theirs and Tyler Bass missed a 42-yard field goal attempt. It was Bass’ third in the past two games. The Patriots entered halftime up 13-3.
The Bills got the ball to start the second half and finally found their groove. Aided by a questionable roughing the passer penalty after Allen sold a hit for a call, the Bills found the end zone. Allen hit James Cook in the flat on third-and-goal at the eight-yard line who maneuvered his way in for a touchdown to cut the deficit to 13-10.
New England answered with a field goal on a 9-play, 44-yard drive. 20 of those yards came on an end around from Demario Douglas who blew past a Dane Jackson would-be tackle in the open field.
The Bills had ample opportunities to take the lead on the next drive. On the first play of the drive, Allen had Diggs open deep down the field for a touchdown, but Allen’s pass sailed over Diggs’ head. The Bills worked into New England territory, but on fourth-and-two, Knox dropped a would-be first down.
The Patriots scored another touchdown on the next drive to take a 22-10 lead. Mac Jones connected with Kendrick Bourne for a four-yard touchdown, but Jones failed on a QB sneak on the two-point conversion.
The Bills’ offense finally found life and urgency on the next drive in the hurry-up offense. The efficient drive was capped off by a 25-yard touchdown from Allen to Diggs where Diggs made a sliding catch near the goal line, got up, and broke a tackle to get into the end zone. That made the score 22-17 New England.
The Bills needed a stop and Jordan Poyer provided the defensive play of the game as he punched out the football from Bourne, which was recovered by Terrel Bernard. That set the Bills up at New England’s 29-yard line.
Faced with fourth-and-two ad the New England eight, Allen connected with Dalton Kincaid for a key conversion to keep the drive alive. On third-and-goal, Allen snuck the ball over the goal-line to take the lead. The two-point conversion was good for a 25-22 lead.
However, the lead was short-lived as Gesicki’s touchdown catch was the game’s final score, giving New England a 29-25 win.
The Bills fall to 4-3 with the loss and will take on Tampa Bay at home on Thursday night.
