6-1 Bills visit 6-1 Vikings in Monday night matchup
The Buffalo Bills beat the Minnesota Vikings 23-6 on Monday night, improving to 7-1 and matching their best start through eight games since 1993. Buffalo held Minnesota to 178 yards, stopped all eight third-down attempts and forced three turnovers; Josh Allen threw for 234 yards and a touchdown, James Cook rushed for 107 yards and a score, and Tyler Bass made all three field goals. Carson Wentz, starting in place of injured Kyler Murray, threw for 81 yards and two interceptions before being replaced by Max Brosmer. The Vikings, who fell to 6-2 with their second straight loss, acquired Kirk Cousins from Las Vegas, reuniting him with the team and coach Kevin O’Connell as they seek to improve their offense. Cousins’ familiarity with Minnesota’s system and receivers could also make the Vikings a tougher opponent for New England, which is scheduled to host them in December.
