One pass after his ninth straight incompletion — a careerlong streak — Patrick Mahomes was picked off Azeez Al-Shaair. The Texans safety took advantage of a drop by Travis Kelce, which put the ball up in the air for the turnover. That could be the dagger.

The Bills had a shot in the final minutes to get the lead. They pulled off a wild hook-and-ladder play for 44 yards on fourth-and-27 to keep the game alive. But on fourth down in Texans territory, Allen threw an INT.
