Buffalo won the slugfest. James Cook kept taking handoffs, the defense kept taking the ball away, and the Bills left Minnesota with a 23-6 victory.
The team's official highlights have drawn nearly 100,000 views before their first day was over, roughly ten times the usual opening audience for its regular videos. It's a compact replay of a game in which Josh Allen's touchdown throw was only part of the story.
Greg Dortch supplies the opening burst with a long kickoff return. Later, Allen rolls right and finds Keleki Latu for a touchdown, before interceptions by Dorian Williams and Terrel Bernard help put Buffalo in control. Cook adds a rushing touchdown, and Tyler Bass supplies the late field goal.
Special teams get their own attention in the comments: viewers single out the kicking and punting, while others discuss how much resistance Minnesota's defense offered before Buffalo pulled clear.
The win is getting several treatments on the Bills' channel. A companion Short also ran well ahead of its usual opening audience, while a separate sideline-sound clip captures Latu's first touchdown. The team has followed those with an all-access mini movie featuring bench reactions, offering a different view of the same hard-earned night.
