BUFFALO, N.Y. (WKBW) — The Buffalo Bills are 9-3 to start the season for the first time since 1996 after the Bills topped the Dallas Cowboys 26-15 on Thanksgiving evening.
After allowing a touchdown on the first drive of the game, the Bills started to capitalize and take control. Josh Allen found Cole Beasley in the 2nd quarter to put the Bills on the board. Beasley, playing against his former team, finished with six catches for 110 yards and a touchdown.
