James Cook had Ii4 yards rushing and Buffalo's defense did the rest in harassing Mahomes, who was sacked three times, hit 15 times and finished with the worst completion percentage of his career.
‘The game was decided in the final 17 seconds, when Mahomes threw three straight incompletions from Buffalo's 40. The last throw fell short of the end zone and was batted down by rookie Maxwell Hairston. The drive began at Kansas City’s 42 after Matt Prater’s 52-yard field goal attempt for the Bills struck the right upright.
Buffalo improved to 6-2 and has won two straight since losing consecutive games. The Bills have defeated Kansas City in five straight regular-season meetings, but are 0-4 in playoff matchups dating to the 2020 postseason — including last season's AFC title game.
The Chiefs (5-4) had a three-game win streak broken after winning five of their last six.
Mahomes, who entered having passed for three touchdowns in each of his last three outings, finished 15 of 34 for 250 yards and no scores.
