NFL Week 1 Game Recap: Buffalo Bills 31, Los Angeles Rams 10

The Buffalo Bills kicked off the 2022 regular season with a 31-10 victory over the Los Angeles Rams on Thursday night.

Buffalo's Josh Allen and Stefon Diggs combined for 122 yards and a touchdown through the air to give Rams cornerback Jalen Ramsey a night he'd likely rather forget. Meanwhile, Rams QB Matthew Stafford was sacked seven times and threw three interceptions as the L.A. offense struggled to get anything going.

Offensive spotlight: Bills quarterback Josh Allen was the star of the show. He went 24-of-29 for 279 yards and three touchdowns from a clean pocket and finished the game with two big-time throws. He added 56 yards and a touchdown from 10 rushing attempts, too.

Defensive spotlight: Von Miller‘s Bills career got off on the right foot, as the 11-year veteran recorded two sacks and three hurries from 25 pass-rush snaps. Per PFF's first review of the game film, he beat his blocker once every five snaps he played.

Rookie spotlight: Bills cornerback Christian Benford played 39 snaps. He was targeted five times, allowing three catches for 55 yards. He gave up two open targets but also forced an incompletion.

Offensive line spotlight: According to PFF's first-run analysis, the Rams' offensive line gave up seven sacks, four hits and 13 hurries from 50 snaps. That 48.0% pressure rate is the team's seventh-worst single-game mark since 2016.
