The Buffalo Bills and Tampa Bay Buccaneers put on a show at Highmark Stadium, with the Bills coming out on top 44-32. Josh Allen, the Bills' star quarterback, had a rocky start, throwing two interceptions in the first half. But he bounced back in a big way, finishing the game with 317 passing yards, three passing touchdowns, and three rushing touchdowns. This incredible performance made him the first player in NFL history to have multiple games with three or more passing and rushing touchdowns. Allen also tied Cam Newton's record for the most rushing touchdowns by a quarterback in regular-season games.
On the other side, the Buccaneers stayed in the game thanks to a standout performance from Sean Tucker. The third-year running back rushed for 140 yards and scored three touchdowns. Baker Mayfield, the Buccaneers' quarterback, had a solid game as well, throwing for 173 yards and one touchdown.
The Bills' offense was firing on all cylinders, despite some key players being sidelined. Wide receiver Dalton Kincaid missed the game due to a hamstring injury, and slot receiver Khalil Shakir had a rough day with only one reception for minus-3 yards. But other players stepped up, like Shavers, who caught four passes for 90 yards and scored a touchdown, and James Cook, who had three catches for 66 yards and a touchdown.
The Bills' defense had a tough day, allowing the Buccaneers to rush for 196 yards. The Bills' run defense has been a concern all season, and it showed in this game. The Bills' defensive line looked weak, and the absence of linebacker Shaq Thompson was felt. However, safety Cole Bishop continued to shine, making an acrobatic interception.
The Buccaneers are now on a two-game losing streak, and their lead in the NFC South is down to half a game. They will have to answer some tough questions on defense if they want to contend with the Los Angeles Rams in their next game.
