Josh Allen ties Jim Kelly's Bills touchdown record as Buffalo holds off the Raiders 33-30

Josh Allen now shares one of the biggest records in Buffalo Bills history.

Allen threw for 255 yards and two touchdowns on Sunday as the Bills held off the Las Vegas Raiders 33-30. His second touchdown pass was the 258th of his career, tying Hall of Famer Jim Kelly for the most in team history.

A record-tying escape

The record came in the third quarter in true Allen fashion. He slipped out of what looked like a sure sack and shot-put a 12-yard touchdown pass to Keon Coleman for a 23-13 lead.

"Just doing what I got to do to help this team win a football game," Allen said.

Allen's streak of five straight games with a rushing touchdown ended. One more would have tied the Super Bowl-era record set by Justin Fields four years ago.

Cook bounces back

Las Vegas fought back to tie it at 23 on an 11-yard touchdown pass from Kirk Cousins to Tre Tucker with 8:07 left.

James Cook answered. After fumbling twice in Monday night's loss to the Rams, Cook held on to the ball all day. He ran for 95 yards and caught three passes for 58. A 26-yard catch set up his own 3-yard touchdown run with 4:43 to go.

Tyler Bass added a 38-yard field goal with 1:56 left. That cushion mattered when Cousins found Tucker again for a 44-yard touchdown with 1:32 remaining. The Bills recovered and ran out the clock.

Buffalo did not turn the ball over for the first time this season. The Bills had nine giveaways over the previous three weeks.

Raiders drop a third straight

Cousins threw for 313 yards. Tucker caught five passes for 97 yards and tight end Michael Mayer had a career-high 95 yards on seven catches. Brock Bowers added four catches for 70 yards.

Bills safety C.J. Gardner-Johnson was ejected late in the first half for spitting at a Raiders player. Matt Gay's 27-yard field goal as time expired tied the game 13-13 at halftime.

Tight end Dalton Kincaid hurt his ribs in the third quarter while playing in his hometown on his 27th birthday but returned.

The Bills (5-1) have a bye and then host Baltimore on Nov. 1. The Raiders (3-3) host the Rams next Sunday.
