The Buffalo Bills topped the Denver Broncos with a final score of 28-14 in a Week 3 showdown of the 2027 season. With both teams looking to gain momentum early in the season, the Bills were able to establish dominance, securing a crucial victory on their home turf. Cary Brikmann led the Bills' offensive attack, throwing for 236 yards, while Travis Etienne Jr. contributed with 60 rushing yards, helping to balance the offensive play. Baker Mayfield of the Broncos had a standout performance with two touchdown passes, but it wasn’t enough to keep pace with Buffalo’s scoring. DeVonta Smith shone as the top receiver with 118 yards, showcasing his ability to stretch the field. Defensively, the Bills made key plays, including an interception by Azareye'h Thomas that shifted momentum in their favor. The Broncos struggled to contain the Bills' offensive rhythm, and despite Daiyan Henley's impressive 12 tackles and Byron Murphy II's 1.5 sacks, they couldn’t prevent Buffalo from finding the end zone. The turning point came late in the second quarter when Thomas' interception set up a crucial touchdown, allowing the Bills to take control and ultimately secure the win.
