The Buffalo Bills got back to winning on Thursday night, as they defeated the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, 24-18, to move to 5-3 on the season. 

Josh Allen was highly efficient in this game, finishing 31 of 40 for 324 yards with two touchdowns and an interception to bounce back after the Bills fell to the New England Patriots on the road Sunday. 

Allen found six different receivers to keep Tampa Bay’s defense guessing where he was going to throw the ball. A prime example of that was Khalil Shakir leading the Bills with 92 receiving yards on six catches, including a big 30-yard gain for Buffalo.

Allen also used Gabe Davis a lot in this one, looking to the offensive captain 12 times and seeing him catch nine for 87 yards and a touchdown. 

Of course, Stefon Diggs got his fair share of targets, too, catching nine of his 12 for 70 yards. Rookie tight end Dalton Kincaid also found the end zone for the first time of his career, finishing the game with 65 yards as well.  

It was Allen finding the end zone first between these two teams, as he scrambled up the middle for a 13-yard score, making it a 10-0 game. The Buccaneers would respond and kick a field goal to cut the lead to seven, but on the ensuing drive, they got some momentum there way with a huge tipped pass that led to an interception.
