The games between the Buffalo Bills and the Kansas City Chiefs just can’t disappoint. The two AFC contenders met in a Week 6 contest on Sunday and produced another action-packed showdown that saw the Bills end up with a 24-20 win.
Both teams started the game playing sluggish football. The Bills ended their first drive with a fumble inside Kansas City’s 20 yards while the Chiefs returned the favor with Patrick Mahomes’ interception on 3rd and goal.
The game came to life in the second quarter, with each team scoring a touchdown and a field goal apiece to head to the locker rooms tied 10-10. The Chiefs’ last drive was particularly impressive, as they only had 16 seconds to work with but still managed to get their kicker Harrison Butker in a position to try a 62-yard field goal. And despite windy conditions, Butker drilled the ball straight through the middle to set both his personal record and franchise record.
However, Butker then missed a 51-yard field goal at the start of the third quarter to give the Bills a short field. Buffalo used the opportunity with Josh Allen connecting with Stefon Diggs for a 17-yard TD pass.
The Chiefs were quick to respond with a touchdown of their own and followed it up with a go-ahead FG to get the 17-20 lead.
With 5:31 left in regulation, the Bills started at their own 24-yard line and marched down the field to score what turned out to be a game-winning touchdown.
Kansas City was left with 51 seconds to work with, but their last drive didn’t go anywhere as Mahomes threw his second interception of the game.
The Bills now improved to 5-1 and remain at the top of the AFC East. The Chiefs, who are leading the AFC West, dropped to 4-2.
