The Buffalo Bills won in the NFL’s Week 11 feature matchup, 30-21, at Highmark Stadium. Buffalo (9-2) ended Kansas City’s (9-1) undefeated season in the matchup between AFC heavyweights.

The first half started with a bang for the Bills. Buffalo’s defense made the first big play of the evening as safety Taylor Rapp intercepted Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes on the second play of the game.

The Bills offense responded with an eight-play touchdown drive culminating with a James Cook three-yard touchdown rush. Kicker Tyler Bass missed the PAT, giving Buffalo a six-point lead.

The defenses kept things under wraps for the remainder of the first quarter. Kansas City answered early in the second quarter, with receiver Xavier Worthy scoring on a 10-yard touchdown catch.

The remainder of the first half looked like a shootout was brewing. Buffalo’s offense put together a nine-play drive to retake the lead. Once again, Cook found the end zone, plowing through the middle of the line for a six-yard touchdown.

Kansas City retook the lead late in the second quarter. Mahomes found backup tight end Noah Gray for a two-yard touchdown reception.

The Bills rounded out the half with a 12-play drive. Bass was successful from 33 yards out, giving Buffalo a two-point halftime lead, 16-14.

The defenses were at the forefront in the third quarter. The teams combined for four punts in the quarter, but the four drives totaled only 55 yards between the two offenses.

Buffalo would finally break the second-half stalemate. The Bills offense sustained a strong 10-play drive, 83-yard drive. Allen retreated from a Kansas City blitz to find receiver Curtis Samuel in space. The wideout scurried into the end zone for a 12-yard touchdown.

The fireworks continued with Kansas City’s offense. Mahomes extended a play from Buffalo’s one-yard line, rolling out to the right and finding Gray for their second connection on the evening.

Buffalo then rattled off a 12-play drive to once again give the Bills a two-score lead. The Bills put the ball in the hands of Josh Allen, and it paid off. On fourth-and-two from the Chiefs 26-yard-line, Buffalo decided against the field goal attempt. The call paid dividends, as Allen rushed from 26 yards, knifing through the Kansas City defense on his way into the end zone. Buffalo would take the lead 30-21 with just over two minutes remaining in the game.

Kansas City attempted a comeback bid, moving into Bills territory. However, a penalty forced the Chiefs into a fourth-and-thirteen attempt. The final play for Kansas City was an interception at the hands of linebacker Terrel Bernard.
