The Buffalo Bills offense looked sharp coming out of halftime, going 63 yards on eight plays and finishing with a 7-yard touchdown pass from quarterback Josh Allen to wide receiverIsaiah McKenzie. Allen found him for a strike at the end zone. The touchdown pass was Allen's second-fastest release on a touchdown in the last two seasons. In the third quarter, the Bills didn't punt. Allen did not throw an incompletion on the drive, but he did have an impressive eight yard run that ended with a strong arm on Rams safety Nick Scott.

Allen started the game with a touchdown pass to Davis.
On third-and-1 from the Rams' 26 yard line, Allen, on the run, found Davis wide open after he scrambled outside the pocket to give Davis time to get open down the field. The last time the Bills scored a touchdown on their first drive of the year was at the Chiefs in 2011.
On the opening drive of the game, the quarterback completed all five of his passes and scored. On the opening drive of his career, the five ties his most completions. He completed his first five on the opening drive of 2020 against the New England.
On the drive, he connected with several different people.
Touchdown from the face of the franchise to the face of the franchise.
