The Buffalo Bills lost a heartbreaker to the Arizona Cardinals in Week 10, but the had plenty of great moments before the game came to a shocking conclusion

The Buffalo Bills lost a heartbreaker, 32-30, to the Arizona Cardinals on Sunday, but this should not obscure the fact that the Bills produced more than their share of great plays throughout the game. Although none came anywhere close to matching the prayer that Kyler Murray threw up to DeAndre Hopkins to win the game with two seconds left.

Of course, when a team coughs up a 16-9 halftime lead and a 23-9 third-quarter lead with a sluggish final two quarters, there’s blame to go around too and the Bills managed to produce some highly forgettable plays over the course of the game.

Here are the club’s best three plays from Sunday and the team’s worst:

Buffalo Bills Best Play from Week 10

The Bills looked like they had stolen the game at the end when quarterback Josh Allen hit a sprawling Stefon Diggs in the end zone with less than a minute left in the game. Diggs ran a deep route to the corner of the end zone and had a step on the Cardinals best pass defender, Patrick Peterson.

Allen had been off-target earlier on a pass intended for Gabriel Davis that was intercepted, but Allen was right on the money with this one. In fact, he might have led Diggs too much because Diggs was forced to make a diving catch to come up with the ball.

It was the Bills’ best play of the game and put Buffalo in the lead at 30-26. And in most cases, the lead would have stood up. But Kyler Murray had magic in his hands. Instead of being 8-2 in the standings, Buffalo must settle for being 7-3 going into their bye week with the 6-3 Dolphins chipping away at their lead in the AFC East.
