Buffalo sits 6-3 at halftime after a penalty-plagued first half that dwarfs their season average. Eight accepted flags, including three Bills offensive holds by Connor McGovern, stalled drives and flipped field position. New England capitalized on a late pass interference on Tre'Davious White to set up a 19-yard Borregales field goal that nudged the Patriots ahead. Buffalo must clean the little things to flip the game in the second half.

Fantasy takeaway: Diggs remains the top target, but the Bills’ discipline issues cap ceiling unless penalties subside. Monitor McGovern’s reps and game flow as Buffalo tries to regain momentum and protect fantasy floors with more clean game scripts and efficient red-zone opportunities in the second half.

The Bills fell 23-20 to New England as penalties and self-inflicted mistakes sabotaged their night. Buffalo racked up 11 penalties for 90 yards, eight in the first half, stoking questions about discipline as the defense bent late. Josh Allen was on the wrong side of a turnover run with an interception and a fumble, while Keon Coleman joined in with a giveaway of his own.

Dalton Kincaid answered with a career-best 108 yards on six catches and Stefon Diggs dominated with 146 yards on 10 receptions, fueling a late push that wasn’t enough to seal the win on a 52-yard field goal with 15 seconds remaining. Buffalo must tidy up ball security and penalties before Week 6 against Atlanta, or risk slipping further in a tougher schedule ahead.

Buffalo stays undefeated at 4-0 with a 31-19 win over New Orleans. Josh Allen accounted for two passing touchdowns and a 27-yard rushing burst, while James Cook surged for 117 rushing yards as Buffalo leaned on the ground game late. Dalton Kincaid added a 28-yard TD with 7:07 left to seal it.

New Orleans, now 0-4, showed resolve but stalled in key moments. Spencer Rattler threw for 126 yards with a 3-yard TD to Chris Olave, yet the Saints couldn’t convert enough drives. Kamara was stymied on a crucial late fourth-down try, and Buffalo closed it out with a Prater field goal after a costly penalty, preserving the Bills’ home dominance.

Buffalo sits at 3-0, with James Cook carving out a true workhorse role and Jackson Hawes thriving in heavy-package sets. Terrel Bernard is a game-changer on defense, Tre’Davious White looks solid in return, Deone Walker disrupts up front, and Matt Prater has been clutch after rejoining the Bills. Others—Greg Rousseau, Ray Davis, Joshua Palmer, Christian Benford, and Spencer Brown—haven’t hit, testing Buffalo’s depth as the schedule stiffens.
