That surely wasn't the way the Bills wanted to start their 2023 season.
A pair of fourth quarter turnovers, four in total, by Josh Allen doomed the Bills in their season opener vs the Jets.
Even as the Jets watched Aaron Rodgers suffer what seems to be a pretty serious Achilles injury - they couldn't help but squander a golden opportunity to beat a division rival on the road.
Behind safety Jordan Whitehead’s three interceptions New York’s defense anchored the Jets and allowed backup Zach Wilson and the offense to hang around to set up a game-tying field goal in the fourth quarter.
Allen then led a nine-play, 43-yard drive that ended with Tyler Bass making Bills fans heart skip a beat, and doinking through a 50-yard field goal to tie the game.
In overtime The Bills were first to receive the ball but went three-and-out and punted. Unfortunately to rookie Xavier Gipson, who broke a tackle and then weaved past the entire Bills unit for the game-winning score. There was what seemed to be a missed penalty call on the Jets for tripping. But in all honesty, the Bills shouldn't have let the game come down to that.
