Broncos 24, Bills 22 | Final score, game highlights + stats to know

The Buffalo Bills had four turnovers in their Monday Night Football loss to the Denver Broncos. After scoring a go-ahead touchdown to take a one point lead with less than 90 seconds in the game, a pass interference called against Taron Johnson set the Broncos up for a game-winning field goal to end the game up 24-22.

Broncos kicker Wil Lutz missed the initial attempt, but the Bills were flagged for having 12 players on defense and Lutz took advantage of the second opportunity.

The Bills fall to 5-5 on the season and slide to 10th in the AFC standings.

Josh Allen threw for 177 yards and a touchdown and added a score on the ground. The quarterback had three turnovers: a fumble and two interceptions.

James Cook, who fumbled twice but recovered one of them en route to a big gain to set up the Bills’ final touchdown, finished with 120 total yards.

The Bills offense struggled to get going in the first half, facing a 15-8 deficit at halftime after three first-half turnovers killed any momentum from positive plays.

Led by A.J. Epenesa, who had two sacks and three quarterback hits, the Bills defense set up their counterpart for several opportunities to take a lead. Johnson forced a fumble in the third quarter, which Rasul Douglas recovered for his first turnover as a Bill. The Bills answered with a touchdown run from Latavius Murray, who spent part of 2022 with the Broncos.

After each team traded punts, Wilson led a touchdown drive that chewed over seven minutes off the clock. The Bills answered with a touchdown drive of their own, but left too much time on the clock for Wilson and the Broncos offense to set up a field goal attempt.

Highmark Stadium erupted when Lutz’s initial attempt sailed wide right, but the cheers turned to stunned silence after the Bills were called for the penalty.

The Bills will host the New York Jets next Sunday at Highmark Stadium at 4:25 p.m.
