Bills overcome slow start, hang on to defeat Giants

Josh Allen brushed off a slow start with a pair of fourth-quarter touchdown throws, and the Buffalo Bills hung on to defeat the New York Giants 14-9 on Sunday night in Orchard Park, N.Y.

Allen went 19-for-30 passing for 169 yards with an interception and Stefon Diggs hauled in 10 receptions for 100 yards for the Bills (4-2), who handed the Giants (1-5) their fourth straight loss.

On the first play of the fourth quarter, Allen threw to Deonte Harty in the left flat for a 3-yard touchdown to conclude a 17-play, 89-yard drive and make it 7-6 in favor of the Bills. The Giants marched 79 yards in nine plays but settled for Graham Gano’s 29-yard field goal with 10:35 left.

Allen led a 12-play, 75-yard drive in response and hit Quintin Morris — a backup tight end who had not been targeted all season — in a tight window for the go-ahead score with 3:48 to play.

The Giants couldn’t capitalize on two late drives. After the first fizzled out, the Bills’ Tyler Bass missed a long field goal.

New York then marched 56 yards in 13 plays in the final 1:25 and got a second shot at the end zone when Buffalo was called for pass interference when the game clock hit zeroes. But on the untimed down, Tyrod Taylor’s would-be TD pass to Darren Waller fell incomplete.
