Buffalo Bills come up short of expectations, come back to beat New Orleans Saints in 220.28-214.74 duel

Full of promise, Buffalo Bills dropped the ball, at least according to projections. Still, they staged an impressive comeback to earn a 220.28-214.74 victory over New Orleans Saints. Buffalo Bills trailed 203.74-202.68 heading into Monday night, but the team came back behind Christian McCaffrey (39 Rush Yds, 67 Rec Yds). Najee Harris (90 Rush Yds, 2 Rush TDs, 26 Rec Yds) and Frankie Luvu (10 Tackles, 1 Sack) led the charge for New Orleans Saints in defeat. Buffalo Bills (7-4) will look to build on their success against New England Patriots, while New Orleans Saints (4-7) take on Houston Texans in an effort to get back on track.
