— Josh Allen led Buffalo to three scores in the final four minutes, the last a 32-yard field goal by Matt Prater as time expired, and the Bills rallied from 15 points down to stun the Baltimore Ravens 41-40 in a season-opening Sunday night thriller.
Buffalo scored 16 points in the last 3:56, with Prater’s kick capping a nine-play, 66-yard drive over the final 1:26.
The Bills became the first team in NFL history to overcome a 15-point deficit in the final 4 minutes of the fourth quarter to win a season opener. And they became the fourth team since 2000 to win after trailing by 15-or-more points in final 4 minutes of the fourth quarter.
« Our team doesn’t quit », Allen told NBC after the game. « There’s people that left the stadium. And that’s OK, we’ll be fine. But have some faith next time. »
Allen went 33 of 46 for 394 yards with two touchdowns and scored two more rushing in an matchup of the NFL’s past two MVPs.
