‘Buffalo’s 24-22 loss featured a comedy of errors before the calamity on Lutz’ first attempt, many of which involved the offense. But make no mistake, the defense also performed imperfectly. Quarterback Josh Allen was at the forefront of the Bills’ litany of mistakes, throwing 2 interceptions and recording a fumble to up his season turnover total to 15, including a league-high 11 interceptions. For the most part, Buffalo’s defense answered the bell on Monday night. But reminiscent of its loss to the New England Patriots, it gave way with the game on the line.’

Mistakes costly for Bills in loss to Broncos
‘Special teams nearly cost the Denver Broncos a win, until the Buffalo Bills out-botched them.’
Sabato: The Bills are mediocre, it’s time to see accountability for the same nonsense each week
‘Despite all the bravado and reassurances, nothing seems to change. It’s the same, stale offense week after week. Instead of carrying the team at a time when the defense is missing five starters, it forced the defense to preserve a win or make a stop on the final drive for a fifth consecutive game.’

Broncos vs. Bills Monday Night Football highlights: Denver gets second chance at victory

Cowboys CB Trevon Diggs makes social media plea to get brother Stefon out of Buffalo
‘“Man 14 Gotta get up outta there,” Trevon wrote.’
Lutz is good on second chance with 36-yard field goal in Broncos’ 24-22 win over Bills
‘The Bills, meantime, were busy coughing up the ball for most of the outing against a Broncos defense that forced four turnovers two weeks after forcing five against the Chiefs. Allen has turned the ball over in all but two games and thrown an interception in six straight.’
Too many injuries, turnovers and a too many men penalty costs Bills in loss to Broncos
‘Second-year offensive coordinator Ken Dorsey’s job security remains in question.’
Bills penalty results in heartbreaking loss after Broncos get second chance at game-winning field goal
‘Looking back at what transpired prior to that field goal, Buffalo shouldn’t have been in position to win the game in the first place.’
Cowboys’ Trevon Diggs makes plea for brother’s quick exit from Buffalo after tough loss vs Broncos
‘In a cryptic message posted on X, Diggs posted “Man 14 gotta get up outta there” after the Bills suffered a 24-22 loss to Denver when Buffalo got called for too many men on the field, giving way to Will Lutz’s successful 36-yard field goal attempt.’
Bills rue ‘inexcusable’ 12 men on field penalty in loss to Broncos
‘”Absolutely, absolutely,” Bills coach Sean McDermott said when asked if it was one of most inexplicable losses he had suffered. “We practiced two or three times that this week — the substitution from dime to field goal block. At the end of the day, we didn’t execute it. So, it’s inexcusable.”‘
Trevon Diggs goes at Buffalo Bills on social media
‘While the game was in progress, Dallas Cowboys cornerback Trevon Diggs took his opinions to X, formerly Twitter.’
Trevon Diggs urges brother Stefon to leave Bills after loss to Broncos: He’s ‘gotta get up outta there’
‘This isn’t the first time this year that a frustrating Buffalo defeat has led to speculation about Diggs’ standing with the team. The Pro Bowler was notably absent at the start of the Bills’ mandatory minicamp in the spring, a year after signing a $96 million contract extension. He told reporters after returning to work that “all is well,” suggesting “everybody has family issues.” And both Allen and general manager Brandon Beane echoed as much, arguing that Diggs remains a pivotal part of the Bills’ long-term plans.’
Sean McDermott says Bills’ Monday night loss to Broncos was ‘inexcusable,’ doesn’t rule out big changes
‘”We can’t turn the ball over, period, let alone four times,” McDermott said. “That’s not good enough.”‘
