The Buffalo Bills pulled off one of the most shocking season-opening comebacks in NFL history, rallying from 15 points down in the final minutes to edge the Baltimore Ravens 41–40 on Sunday night. Josh Allen delivered a performance worthy of his MVP title, throwing for 394 yards with two touchdowns and adding two more scores on the ground. The night was capped by newly signed kicker Matt Prater, who nailed a 32-yard field goal as time expired to seal the improbable victory.
The Ravens looked firmly in control behind Lamar Jackson and Derrick Henry, who rushed for 169 yards. But a late Henry fumble and a tipped touchdown pass to rookie Keon Coleman shifted the momentum back to Buffalo. The collapse left Ravens fans stunned and prompted a tense moment when Jackson shoved a fan after a helmet tap incident on the sideline. The Bills’ rally marked the first time an NFL team has overcome such a large deficit in the final four minutes of a season opener. After the win, Allen praised his team’s resilience but scolded fans who left early, telling them to have more faith the next time.
