The New England Patriots entered their Week 15 matchup against the Buffalo Bills in hot pursuit of their first division title since the 2019 season — as well as their 29th playoff appearance in franchise history. In the process, they would complete one of the most impressive single-season turnarounds in NFL history.

In just his second NFL season, Drake Maye has completely transformed the New England Patriots, revitalizing a franchise that won only four games in 2024. Entering Sunday’s AFC East clash against the Buffalo Bills, New England held an 11-2 record and was aiming to strengthen its grip atop the conference standings.

But Allen and Buffalo were undeterred. Ray Davis had a huge kick return to open the second half, and Allen capped the drive with a 4-yard touchdown to Dawson Knox. Then, the maligned Buffalo defense, shredded throughout the first half, got a three-and-out, and the Bills marched down the field again, with Cook powering in from 3 yards out.

Ray Davis' kickoff returns were a huge help for the Bills as he put Allen and the offense in prime positions to charge down the field and take the lead. Davis had three returns that went for over 30 yards, even taking one a total of 58 yards. As expected, the Bills capitalized on this moment.
