Josh Allen led the Buffalo Bills to their first overtime victory in his career with a 37-34 win against the Los Angeles Rams on Monday night. Allen recorded 331 total yards and two touchdowns, contributing significantly to the comeback win. The decisive moment came when Tyler Bass made a crucial 45-yard field goal in overtime following Greg Rousseau’s block of a potential tying field goal by the Rams. Despite both teams’ high-scoring performance, with Matthew Stafford passing for 383 yards and three touchdowns, Allen celebrated his first career OT win while praising his opponent's skills.

Story summary
Aaron Donald, the future Hall of Famer defensive tackle for the Los Angeles Rams, is expected to return from back soreness just in time for their Monday Night Football matchup against the Buffalo Bills at SoFi Stadium on October 12, 2026. The Rams, who rallied to defeat the Eagles 24-20 last week despite Donald's absence, are optimistic about his status after he participated fully in practice and declared his intention to play. Additionally, cornerback Jaylen Watson is also expected back from a dislocated shoulder, though tight end Colby Parkinson remains sidelined.
The return of these key players presents a significant defensive boost for the Rams as they prepare to face off against one of the NFL's top offenses led by quarterback Josh Allen. The Bills are coming off their first loss of the season to the New England Patriots and will look to control the game on the ground with running back James Cook, last year’s rushing champion.
Oddsmakers predict a high-scoring affair, setting the total at 54.5 points. With the Rams' defense bolstered by Donald's return, they aim to build on their dramatic comeback against Philadelphia and secure another victory over Allen and the Bills. The game will feature an intense battle between two teams with aspirations for a Super Bowl appearance later this season. Betting incentives are available through platforms like BetMGM, offering up to $1500 in bonus bets.
Historically, these matchups have been closely contested, with the last meeting ending in a 44-42 victory for the Rams despite a dominant performance by Allen. This upcoming clash promises another heavyweight fight reminiscent of their past encounters. Head coach Sean McVay is counting on the renewed defensive strength to deliver one final stop and secure another thrilling win for his team.
