What happened: Buffalo reached overtime with 340 yards of offense. Wide receivers and tight ends accounted for 43 of those yards. The remaining production came outside the primary pass catchers, leaving DJ Moore central to the offense.

Why it matters: The imbalance leaves Buffalo one-dimensional in overtime, when field position decides possessions. Continued reliance on backs forces Buffalo to win without downfield separation. Solving the receiver shortfall shapes the finish and the review of the passing game.

What to watch: Overtime will show whether Buffalo can get wideouts and tight ends involved. The next possession will test if the passing split shifts.
