Patriots Hand Bills Their First Loss of Season

Stefon Diggs caught 10 passes for 146 yards, leading the Patriots to a 23-20 win over his former team in a game fueled by personal motivation.

  • The New England Patriots defeated the Buffalo Bills 23-20 on Sunday evening in Buffalo, ending the Bills' undefeated start to the season.
  • Buffalo's three turnovers, including two by Josh Allen and numerous penalties, contributed to their loss despite being one of the NFL's last unbeaten teams entering the game.
  • Stefon Diggs, a former Buffalo wideout, delivered a prolific 146-yard performance with 10 catches, marking his second consecutive 100-yard game since joining the Patriots.
  • Allen completed 22 of 31 passes for 253 yards and two touchdowns but acknowledged his costly red-zone interception was a "bad ball," while Coach McDermott said, "I thought we beat ourselves."
  • The Patriots' victory tightened the AFC East race, snapping Buffalo's 14-game home winning streak and indicating both teams face challenges sustaining early-season success.
