Allen throws for 2 TDs, runs for 2 scores to lift Bills to 48-42 win that snaps Lions' streak
Hindustan TimesDETROIT — Josh Allen ran for two scores in the first quarter and threw two touchdown passes in the second half, leading the Buffalo Bills to a 48-42 victory Sunday that snapped the Detroit Lions ' franchise-record 11-game winning streak. Buffalo coach Sean McDermott chose to go for it on fourth-and-2 from his 49 on the ensuing possession and Allen found Johnson wide open for a 31-yard catch to set up James Cook's 6-yard touchdown run to restore a two-touchdown lead midway through the second quarter. Goff threw a 9-yard touchdown pass to Dan Skipper five plays later, pulling off a trick play with a throw to an offensive lineman who reported in as eligible to pull within a touchdown. Just when it looked as though the Lions might get routed in the second half, Goff converted a third-and-17 with a 66-yard touchdown pass to St. Brown.
