(AP) — Josh Allen accounted for 331 total yards and two touchdowns, Tyler Bass made a 45-yard field goal with 1:55 left in overtime shortly after Greg Rousseau blocked the Rams’ field goal attempt, and the Buffalo Bills outlasted Los Angeles for a 37-34 victory Monday night.Allen passed for 210 yards and rushed for 121 more for the Bills (4-1), who rallied to win a frantic game befitting the teams with the NFL’s last two MVPs at quarterback.The Bills appeared to be in trouble after James Cook fumbled early in OT, but Allen got another chance — and he finally won an overtime game for the first time in his career while besting Matthew Stafford, who passed for 383 yards and three touchdowns.“That’s the beautiful thing about football: You get another drive,” Allen said.

You’re hoping someone on defense or special teams can make a play, and that’s what happened. Greg Rousseau made a play.”Cook scored his second touchdown with 1:39 left in regulation for Buffalo, but Kyren Williams scored on a 1-yard surge with 4 seconds left to force overtime.

I'm going to evaluate everything.”Allen then made scrambles of 19 and 13 yards before rookie Bills coach Joe Brady elected to try the field goal on second down with nearly two minutes still on the clock. Bass blasted his kick and ran away to celebrate before the officials signaled it good.“The confidence I had in T-Bass was, ‘Hey, 45 yards, he’s going to make this kick,'” Brady said.Allen got more than 100 of his yards rushing on scrambles, repeatedly escaping the pocket and rendering useless the Rams' tenacious secondary coverage.“When it’s there, it’s there,” Allen said. “I don’t want to make a living on that, I understand that, but I do know how much of a backbreaker that can be on a defense when you think you’re in pretty good coverage.

I felt like there was some room to maneuver there and keep the chains moving.”Cook rushed for … Tyler Bass booted a 45-yard field goal with 1:55 remaining to give the Bills a wild 37-34 victory.
