Quarterback Josh Allen threw two interceptions, including his first in the red zone of his career, and cornerback Tre’Davious White left the game with a knee injury.
But despite all of that, it was enough for a blowout win over the New Orleans Saints to bring the Buffalo Bills’ record to 7-4.
Buffalo controlled the game by dominating the time of possession and avoiding penalties — finishing with only four, one more than its fewest in a game this season.
After throwing both of his interceptions in the second quarter, Allen led Buffalo on consecutive touchdown drives to start the second half to establish a four-score lead, including Dawson Knox’s second touchdown of the night.
The biggest question going forward is the health of White, one of the best players on a team that still has its sights set on a deep playoff run.
QB breakdown: Allen threw two head-scratching interceptions, but, otherwise, he had a great game — finishing with a career-high completion percentage .
The good news is that he can still play at a high level, even when making mistakes, but limiting the miscues should be prioritized.
Buy on a performance: How about running back Matt Breida? The Bills have been unable to find consistency on the ground, but with Zack Moss inactive, Breida and Devin Singletary had success.
