New England Patriots upset Buffalo Bills 29-26 in Week 4
The New England Patriots secured a 29-26 upset victory over the Buffalo Bills in Week 4, handing Buffalo its first loss of the season and its first defeat at Highmark Stadium.
Quarterback Drake Maye led the comeback, throwing for 269 yards and three touchdowns, including a decisive 23-yard pass to Efton Chism III with 1:50 remaining. Despite committing an interception and a lost fumble in the first half, Maye’s performance helped the Patriots improve to a 2-2 record. Other scoring contributors for New England included Romeo Doubs, who caught two touchdowns, and Rhamondre Stevenson, who scored on a 1-yard run.
The Bills, led by Josh Allen, fell to 3-1. Allen threw for 253 yards and one touchdown but also threw an interception late in the game that allowed New England to run out the clock. The game was marked by several controversial moments, including an unsportsmanlike conduct penalty on Patriots head coach Mike Vrabel and criticism from analyst Julian Edelman regarding officiating standards.
