The Buffalo Bills improved to 3-0 with a 24-16 win over the Los Angeles Chargers on Sunday, overcoming five turnovers in an ugly afternoon. While Josh Allen and the offense started slowly and trailed in the fourth quarter, they recovered to secure the victory at home.
The Bills' defense proved to be the difference. According to multiple outlets, Buffalo's defensive effort was the focal point of the win, with one report highlighting that the unit "stole the spotlight" in the victory. The Chargers, now 0-3, managed a strong early push despite the five Bills turnovers, but could not close out the game.
Buffalo was tested throughout the afternoon but avoided handing the Chargers a winnable game despite multiple opportunities to do so. The victory came with a potential injury concern: Yahoo Sports reported that Bills cornerback Christian Benford left the game, raising questions about the team's secondary depth moving forward.
