Buffalo Bills’ Costly Mistakes Lead to Defeat Against Denver Broncos in NFL Match

Buffalo (dpa) – The Buffalo Bills gave up a victory with hair-raising mistakes and suffered their fifth defeat of the season in the NFL. In front of their own fans there was a 22:24 against the Denver Broncos, who took the lead for the last time with a field goal as the clock was running out. Previously, kicker Wil Lutz had shot an attempt from 41 yards to the right of the post. But because the Bills had twelve defensive players on the field instead of the allowed eleven, there was a second chance for the Broncos from 36 yards. This attempt worked. “The guys were tireless”Bills quarterback Josh Allen made two bad passes and only found a teammate on 15 of 26 attempts. His counterpart at the Broncos, Russell Wilson, delivered a better performance. “The guys were tireless. We believe in ourselves and who we are. We had so many great moments today. Josh is a great quarterback. But we just didn’t stop fighting,” Wilson told ESPN. He had two touchdown passes and completed 24 of 29 pass attempts. Shortly before the decisive kick, seconds before the end, the Bills had received a penalty and gave the Broncos the chance for the field goal in the first place. After a strong defensive effort, Wilson had to throw a desperation pass. However, a Bills defender hindered Wilson’s teammate’s unsuccessful attempt to catch the ball, and the penalty gave the visitors a chance to win. The Bills committed a total of four turnovers and were primarily responsible for the defeat. On Sunday, five NFL games had already ended with a field goal when the clock was running out – a record in the National Football League. © dpa-infocom, dpa:231114-99-936325/2
