The Buffalo Bills took their first lead with 1:55 left in the game.
But costly mistakes ensured that they didn't keep it.
Two penalties by the Bills helped pave the way for the Denver Broncos to pull off a last-second, game-winning 36-yard field goal and 24-22 road victory over Buffalo at Highmark Stadium in Orchard Park, New York on Monday Night Football. The Broncos have now won three straight games.
After Josh Allen scrambled for a six-yard touchdown to give the Bills a 22-21 lead with under two minutes remaining, Russell Wilson was sacked on 2nd & 4 to take the Broncos out of field goal range. However, a play later on 3rd & 10 and Wilson's incomplete pass deep was bailed out by the Bills being whistled for a defensive pass interference, as the Broncos got another chance with 29 seconds remaining.
Then on 4th & 16 with seven seconds left, the Broncos' 41-yard field goal attempt was no good, but again they were bailed out by another Bills' penalty — this one being a Defensive Too Many Men on Field call.
That set up a 36-yard field goal, which Wil Lutz cashed in to ice the 24-22 dramatic victory.
If anything, the Bills' mistakes were indicative of their problems all season long. Monday Night's game had the Bills committing two fumbles and two interceptions on top of the aforementioned costly penalties.
Meanwhile, Wilson was brilliant, especially while orchestrating the Broncos' 10-play, 57-yard game-winning drive. Wilson finished with 24-of-29 passes for 193 yards and two touchdowns.
The Broncos improve to 4-5 with their third consecutive victory, while the Bills (5-5) fall to .500.
