Josh Allen did the heavy lifting, going 23-of-33 for 255 yards and two touchdowns through the air.\n\nIt was not a blowout. The final score suggests the Raiders made things uncomfortable late, but Buffalo's offense did enough early to hold on. Allen continues to be the engine that makes this team go, and another multi-touchdown outing keeps his numbers trending in the right direction.\n\nFor the Raiders, the loss slows down what had been a quick rebuild effort. Buffalo, meanwhile, keeps stacking wins and sits comfortably near the top of the standings through six weeks. The margin was thin, but at 5-1, the Bills will take it.","published_at":"2026-10-19T06:03:42.538373+00:00","source_count":3,"written_from":[{"outlet":"Yahoo Sports","publisher":"Yahoo Sports","title":"Bills hold off Raiders 33-30 to move to 5-1","url":"https://sports.yahoo.com/articles/bills-hold-off-raiders-33-233613370.html"},{"outlet":"Pro Football Talk","publisher":"NBC Sports","title":"Bills hold off Raiders 33-30 to move to 5-1","url":"https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/bills-hold-off-raiders-33-30-to-move-to-5-1"},{"outlet":"New York Post","publisher":"New York Post","title":"Bills, Josh Allen could throw latest wrench in Raiders’ quick rebuild","url":"https://nypost.com/2026/10/18/sports/josh-allen-bills-raiders-quick-rebuild/"}],"more_coverage":[{"outlet":"Yahoo Sports","publisher":"Yahoo Sports","title":"How to watch Bills vs Raiders: NFL, live stream, TV channel, start time","url":"https://sports.yahoo.com/articles/watch-bills-vs-raiders-nfl-192500201.html"},{"outlet":"Yahoo Sports","publisher":"Yahoo Sports","title":"Bills report card: Allen rescues woeful defense with more of his magic","url":"https://sports.yahoo.com/articles/bills-report-card-allen-rescues-013329268.html"},{"outlet":"Yahoo Sports","publisher":"Yahoo Sports","title":"Josh Allen keeps Bills on their toes with expectations after bye week","url":"https://sports.yahoo.com/articles/josh-allen-keeps-bills-toes-045216189.html"}],"image":{"url":"https://s.yimg.com/lo/mysterio/api/81465b01c742e986d0a00231de2e914703cdb59c820f68e6057cb6fc8dd9f8a4/lightyear_networkapi/resizefill_w1200_h675%3Bquality_80%3Bformat_webp/https%3A%2F%2Fmedia.zenfs.com%2Fen%2Fprofootballtalk.nbcsports.com%2F55653bcc90d394749b54cf52aa759acf.jpg","credit":"Yahoo Sports","width":1200},"embed":null,"license":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/","attribution":"Analysis data is licensed CC BY 4.0.
