‘An organization and a coach who believe they are Super Bowl caliber have wilted into mediocrity. In six losses, 78 of Buffalo’s 91 points allowed have come in the fourth quarter, while opponents’ yards per play jump from 5.6 in the first three quarters to 6.4 in the last.’

Josh Allen, Bills left to contemplate latest heartbreak in a season of setbacks
‘For all of the mishaps, mistakes and misfortunes the Bills endured – mind-numbing losses, a fired offensive coordinator and debates about “championship windows” – through the first 11 weeks of the season, they had a prime opportunity Sunday to leave much of that behind for the stretch run.’
No-call for potential horse-collar tackle on Josh Allen plays key role in Bills’ loss to Eagles
‘Facing a second-and-goal with less than two minutes left in the first half, Allen was flushed outside of the pocket on a play that started at the Eagles’ 3-yard line. As Reddick dragged him down, it appeared Reddick’s left hand first grabbed Allen by the front collar – the stretch marks afterward proved that – and again with his right hand near Allen’s neck and back of the helmet.’
Jalen Hurts runs for winning TD in overtime, Eagles rally past Josh Allen, Bills 37-34
‘The Bills (6-6) still had 20 seconds left and a chance to at least try a desperation heave or a quick play to set up a field goal try. Coach Sean McDermott instead elected to have Allen take a knee.’
Josh Allen’s 4 TDs not enough for Bills, who blow multiple leads vs. Eagles and fall to .500
‘They couldn’t show it for 60 minutes and change — blowing leads of 17-7 at the half, 24-14 through three and 34-31 in OT.’
Bills defensive end Shaq Lawson confronts, appears to shove fan during loss to Eagles
‘Lawson, defensive tackle Jordan Phillips and other Bills players walked from the sideline toward the front row of stands at Lincoln Financial Field and started jawing at Eagles fans. Phillips got close to the face of one fan before Lawson walked up and seemingly made physical contact with the spectator, according to video circulating on social media.’
NFL fans skewer refs for missed penalty after tackle on Bills’ Josh Allen
‘Allen dropped back to pass on 2nd-and-goal from the Eagles’ three-yard line. Eagles linebacker Haason Reddick was in pursuit and dragged Allen to the ground. The replay showed that Reddick appeared to take Allen down from the back of his jersey. He also ripped the front of Allen’s jersey.’
Bills’ Shaq Lawson pushes Eagles fan in heated confrontation
‘Bills defensive end Shaq Lawson, defensive tackle Jordan Phillips and other Bills players walked from the sideline to the front row of fans and started going back and forth with them.’
Bills lament another near-miss after OT loss to Eagles
‘The Bills are 2-6 in one-score games in 2023, tied with the New England Patriots for the worst record in eight or more one-score games and tied for the second-worst record in one-score games overall.’
Bills’ Josh Allen has 3 TDs against the Eagles
‘Allen’s 16-yard rushing touchdown came at the end of a nine-play, 70-yard drive to respond to a Philadelphia touchdown drive that narrowed the Bills’ lead to three points. Allen now has nine rushing touchdowns this season, tying a career-high (2019). He has rushed for 63 yards through the third quarter, his first 50-plus rushing performance this season, and his most rushing yards since he had 77 vs. the Dolphins last December.’
Shaq Lawson appears to shove Eagles fan as Bills players jawed with Philadelphia supporters following OT loss
‘Following that 37-34 overtime defeat, an altercation was caught on camera between a collection of Buffalo players and Eagles fans. Defensive tackle Jordan Phillips can be seen walking away from the sideline and toward the stands while he’s jawing with a particular Eagles fan. Lawson then came into that altercation from Phillips’ right and appeared to shove the fan. Bills players were quick to grab Lawson and escort him back to the sideline before the situation escalated further. Phillips also retreated toward the bench but continued to exchange verbal blows with the fan as Leonard Floyd ushered him back.’
Eagles vs. Bills score, takeaways: Philadelphia sinks Buffalo in OT as Jalen Hurts scores game-winning TD
‘The Eagles scored on five of their last six possessions, staying within 10 points because of two missed field goals when Buffalo could have put them away. Hurts woke up, but the Bills helped awaken him.’
NFL Week 12 Takeaways: Eagles’ walk-off win gives Bills plenty to ponder entering bye week
‘The Bills once again couldn’t close the deal despite a late-game lead and heroic play from quarterback Josh Allen, while Philadelphia once again found a way to win — this time, thanks to a remarkable (and super rainy) 59-yard Jake Elliott field goal to force overtime and a Jalen Hurts rushing touchdown to win the game once there.’
Eagles Grind Out OT Thriller While Chiefs’ Offense Finds Its Stride
‘If only Gabe Davis turned to his right on his choice route, perhaps the Bills would have had a memorable walk-off victory in overtime. Now Buffalo’s season is on life support, with upcoming games against the Chiefs and Cowboys.’
