Bills, Lions 31

Buffalo opened Highmark Stadium in style, rolling past Detroit 41-31 as Josh Allen accounted for five touchdowns and moved the Bills to 2-0 in their new home. The atmosphere drew raves from the home locker room, with players calling the place electric after the 41-point night. Allen's fourth score came through the air as Buffalo piled on into the second half.

Detroit's Defensive Woes

The Lions' inability to slow Buffalo left All-Pro linebacker Jack Campbell shouldering the blame, fighting back tears while reflecting on the unit's poor effort. Detroit also lost defensive back Avonte Maddox, who was carted off with a foot injury and ruled out. The injuries compounded a rough night for a defense that never found an answer for Allen.

Buffalo Injury Watch

The Bills' win came with a cost, as wide receiver DJ Moore was ruled out with a shoulder injury and did not return. Buffalo will monitor his status ahead of Week.
