The Patriots shocked the NFL world when they upset the Buffalo Bills in primetime. Here’s what those around the NFL are saying about the 23-20 win.

On the first play, DaQuan Jones had Maye all but sacked, let him get away and he found Stefon Diggs for 12 yards. And then on the Patriots last offensive snap, Joey Bosa could have sacked for Maye for a loss which would have pushed Borregales back at least seven or eight yards, but he whiffed and Maye managed to get back to the line of scrimmage.

All five players are contributing in major ways for a Patriots team that went on the road and made Bills quarterback Josh Allen and running back James Cook look human on Sunday night. Here were the best and worst Pro Football Focus grades for the Patriots' defense on Sunday:

New England opens with a bootleg pass to Stefon Diggs (who else?), who promptly finds open grass for a first down. But then the Bills defense counters immediately, swallowing up Rhamondre Stevenson's first carry and then sacking Maye on third-and-long. Already we can see this matchup will be a test for the Patriots' offensive front.

Josh Allen and the Buffalo Bills beat themselves by committing three turnovers in a 23-20 loss to AFC East rival New England Patriots.

Josh Allen: "It was a pretty pivotal game in terms of what we could have done with this. And we didn't take advantage of our opportunity."

Here were the best and worst Pro Football Focus grades for the Patriots' offense on Sunday: WR Stefon Diggs: 93.0 G Mike Onwenu: 83.4 QB Drake Maye: 79.7 OT Morgan Moses: 75.6 OT Will Campbell: 70.4 TE Austin Hooper: 48.2

Dawkins has only missed three games in his nine-year career and one was when Buffalo rested several starters in the 2024 season finale. TJ Sanders missed Week 5 with a knee injury that he suffered in practice on Oct. 1.
