Buffalo Bills Beat Lions 48-42 in AFC Showdown

The Buffalo Bills defeated the Detroit Lions 48-42, marking a significant victory that places them at 11-3 and in contention for the AFC's top seed. This win also ended the Lions' 11-game winning streak and highlighted the Bills' offensive prowess, driven by quarterback Josh Allen, who threw for 362 yards and had four total touchdowns. The outcome has opened a path for the Minnesota Vikings to secure the NFC's top seed if they win their remaining games. Despite the high score, the Bills' dominance was evident, prompting Lions coach Dan Campbell to make a desperate onside kick attempt early in the fourth quarter. Defensive injuries hampered the Lions, particularly the absence of key players like Aidan Hutchinson, which contributed to their struggles against the Bills. With their current form, the Bills are now favorites for the Super Bowl, reflecting their strong season performance.
