The Buffalo Bills beat the Los Angeles Chargers 24-16 on Sunday to keep their unbeaten start to the season intact.

Buffalo’s defence held firm in the closing stages as the Chargers pushed for a late comeback that never quite materialised. The Bills’ pass rush came alive when it mattered, closing out the win with a crucial late stop.

The Bills’ offence did enough to stay in control for most of the afternoon, building a lead that proved just enough against a battling Chargers side. Buffalo’s running game helped grind down the clock in the fourth quarter.

Los Angeles showed flashes but paid for missed opportunities, slipping further behind in a competitive AFC race. The Chargers will rue a handful of costly errors that let the game slip away.

The victory keeps Buffalo among the league’s early front-runners and extends the feel-good start under their high-powered attack. The Bills look every inch a contender as the season takes shape.
