Takeaways from Bills win over Raiders
The Buffalo Bills edge the Las Vegas Raiders 33-30 on the road in Week 5, improving to 5‑1 before their bye. Despite allowing 30 points, the defense shows signs of progress, tightening run defense to 3.8 yards per carry league‑wide. Josh Allen posts an 86.7% adjusted completion rate, his highest this season, while James Cook racks up 153 yards from scrimmage on 25 touches, reaffirming his elite status. Rookie safety T.J. Parker logs a career‑high 41 snaps, and Keon Coleman emerges as a reliable slot option with a 15‑of‑19 first‑down conversion rate. However, the pass rush remains weak, pressuring quarterbacks on under 20% of drop‑backs, a lingering concern for Buffalo’s defense.
Josh Allen ties Jim Kelly’s Bills passing touchdown record
Josh Allen ties Jim Kelly’s Buffalo Bills career passing‑touchdown record in a 33‑30 win over the Las Vegas Raiders on Oct. 18, 2026. After reaching 257 TDs with a nine‑yard strike to Khalil Shakir, Allen caps the night with a jaw‑dropping backhanded shovel pass to Keon Coleman for his 258th, matching Kelly’s 258. The milestone comes in Allen’s 134 regular‑season games (15 playoffs), compared with Kelly’s 160 regular‑season outings. With Allen now just one TD shy of Kelly’s regular‑season total (229 vs. 237), the record could fall soon.

The Bills survive a wild 33‑30 win over the Las Vegas Raiders in Sin City, improving to 5‑1 and heading into a bye week. A forced turnover seals the game, but the victory is marred by safety C.J. Gardner‑Johnson’s ejection after spitting at Raiders players, likely prompting a suspension. Highlights include rookie wideout Keon Coleman’s four catches, a touchdown that gave Josh Allen his 258th career pass – tying Jim Kelly – and key defensive plays from Dorian Williams’ interception and cornerback Christian Benford’s lock‑down of Brock Bowers.
