The Bills' night wasn't flawless. They attempted three punts, settled for a field goal in the end zone for the first time this year, and have some questionable ailments.
The Bills outclassed Tennessee 41-7 thanks to Josh Allen's four touchdown passes, three of which went to Stefon Diggs, and 17 points off three Titans mistakes.
Allen threw for 317 yards on 26 of 38 completions, marking the 15th time in his career it has happened. His career high of four touchdown throws was equaled.
Diggs tied his career high with 12 receptions for 148 yards and three touchdowns. He is the first player with at least 250 receiving yards and four receiving touchdowns in his team's first two games of a season since Steve Smith in 2007. In the season's first game against the Rams, Diggs hauled eight catches for 122 yards and a touchdown.
Derrick Henry only gained 25 yards on his 13 carries as Bill's defense kept the Titans to 187 yards. With 5:23 left in the first quarter, Henry scored the only touchdown for the Titans on a 2-yard rush. Tyrel Dodson and Matt Milano intercepted Ryan Tannehill. Milano returned his kickoff 43 yards for his first career touchdown in the third quarter, with the score already decided, benching Tannehill in favor of rookie Malik Willis.
The Bills' special teams recovered Kyle Phillips' mishandled punt, and Tyler Bass made field goals of 49 and 37 yards.
Buffalo did lose three players to injuries: defensive tackle Jordan Phillips sat down with a hamstring injury, and Milano exited the game late with a stinger. Safety Defense back Dane Jackson was sent to the hospital after suffering a head injury to his head and neck in the first half. At the same time, offensive lineman Micah Hyde was carried to the training room with a neck injury.
