Lions' banged-up defense no match for high-scoring Allen-led Bills in 48-42 loss

Hindustan Times  

DETROIT — The Detroit Lions had no answers for Josh Allen. Detroit’s patchwork defense got even more threadbare in a 48-42 loss to Allen and the Buffalo Bills on Sunday, losing three contributors to possible season-ending injuries. Defensive tackle Alim McNeill injured a knee, cornerback Carlton Davis III left with a jaw injury and reserve cornerback and key special teams player Khalil Dorsey broke his right leg, which coach Dan Campbell said was similar to Aidan Hutchinson's season-ending injury. “You can’t give that team anything, and I feel like we helped them a little bit.” Buffalo’s 48 points and 559 yards don’t even tell the whole tale because Tyler Bass missed a 24-yard field goal that could have put the Bills over 50 points. We have a lot of guys who can play better than that, and that’s my job.” The final box score doesn’t look too bad for the Lions on offense after they had 521 yards, including 494 yards from Jared Goff, and lost by just six points.
