The Patriots secured a 14-10 victory against the Bills in Buffalo and will keep their status as first in the AFC East.
During the windy "Monday Night Football" matchup, running back Damien Harris dominated the league's top-ranked defense. The 24-year-old rushed for 111 yards and a touchdown before he exited the matchup with a hamstring injury. Running back Rhamondre Stevenson also helped drive down the field and recorded 24 carries for 78 yards.
While wind gusts whipped through Highmark Stadium at around 40-50 mph — according to the National Weather Service — Mac Jones attempted just three throws. He ended the matchup with the fewest pass attempts in the league since the Bills defeated the Jets 16-12 in 1974. Josh Allen connected with tight end Jonnu Smith for 12 yards and running back Brandon Bolden for 7 yards.
