These were the top three takeaways from the Buffalo Bills exciting Week 3 win over the Los Angeles Rams.

Coming off their third win in a row, the Buffalo Bills showed flashes of brilliance and complete chaos as they yet again win a close game against the Rams.

In three consecutive weeks now the Bills have leaned heavily on the play from their quarterback, Josh Allen who completed his third 300-yard game in a row. Though those three games, Allen has recorded multiple touchdowns yet the scores have been close.

This was the story again as an early 25-point lead accumulated by Buffalo early in the second half dwindled away. Working away, doing their best to shave down their deficit, Los Angeles began to accumulate some momentum after a questionable Josh Allen interception gave the Rams the ball and the pendulum of momentum swung in the Rams favor. To that point, the Rams responded, clawing back to claim their first lead of the game in the fourth quarter.

After scoring 29 second-half points which included a successful two-point conversion, Josh Allen found himself in the driver’s seat during a fourth quarter game-winning drive. After connecting with Tyler Kroft in the endzone to reclaim the lead, the Buffalo Bills spotty defense stood their ground in the last 15 seconds, preserving their undefeated record.

With a plethora of ‘wins’ and ‘losses’ on display during Sunday’s shootout, these are the three key takeaways of Week 3.
