FOXBOROUGH, Mass. — Josh Allen passed for four touchdowns and the Buffalo Bills became the first AFC East team to sweep the season series with the New England Patriots in two decades with a 38-9 victory on Monday night.
A week after unseating the Patriots as AFC East champions, the win also keeps alive the Bills’ hopes of securing a top-three seed for the AFC playoffs.
The Bills (12-3) last swept the Patriots in 1999. The last division opponents to sweep the Patriots were the Jets and Dolphins in 2000. The Patriots’ 19 straight seasons without losing both games to a divisional opponent was an NFL record.
