Patriots upset undefeated Bills 29-26 in Week 4

Overview

The New England Patriots secured a 29-26 comeback victory over the previously undefeated Buffalo Bills at Highmark Stadium during NFL Week 4. The win brings the Patriots to a 2-2 record, while the Bills drop to 3-1, marking their first loss of the season and their first defeat at their new stadium under coach Joe Brady.

Patriots quarterback Drake Maye overcame early turnovers, including an interception and a lost fumble, to record three touchdown passes. Maye completed 22 of 37 passes for 269 yards. He connected with Romeo Doubs for two touchdowns and completed a decisive 23-yard one-handed touchdown pass to Efton Chism III with 1:50 remaining in the fourth quarter. Rhamondre Stevenson also contributed a 1-yard rushing score and a successful two-point conversion.

Buffalo's offense, led by Josh Allen, held a 26-21 lead late in the game after a 34-yard touchdown pass to Keon Coleman. However, Allen's final deep pass attempt was intercepted by Craig Woodson, sealing the New England victory.

The game was marked by officiating controversies. Patriots head coach Mike Vrabel received an unsportsmanlike conduct penalty, which he attributed to a ‘sensitive’ official. Former player Julian Edelman criticized the officiating standard as ‘suspect’ following a missed call involving Bills defensive end Landon Jackson. In the aftermath, Bills safety C.J. Gardner-Johnson expressed frustration, suggesting that ‘the better team lost.’
