Bills Edge Texans in Thriller | Houston Texans News

The Buffalo Bills stunned the Houston Texans 36-31 in a heart-pounding opener, with Josh Allen lighting up the field for four touchdowns—three passing, one rushing—and hitting DJ Moore for his first TD as a Bill. Allen’s 80-yard rushing score was a career milestone, while Dalton Kincaid and Moore each hauled in five catches for over 100 yards. The game came down to a clutch 34-yard TD pass to Joshua Palmer with under two minutes left, sealing the win. Houston’s C.J. Stroud and David Montgomery fought back with big performances, but it was Buffalo’s defense that made the final play: Greg Rousseau sacked Stroud, forced a fumble, and Terrel Bernard scooped it up for the game-sealing takeaway. A statement win to kick off the 2026 season. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
