The Buffalo Bills achieved a commanding 23-6 win against the Minnesota Vikings on Monday night, deepening the Vikings' offensive struggles. Josh Allen's touchdown pass just before halftime and James Cook's 107 rushing yards, including a late score, were pivotal for the Bills.

Minnesota's offense faltered under pressure, with quarterback Carson Wentz experiencing one of the worst performances of his career. Wentz managed only 81 passing yards and committed three turnovers. The Vikings' offense repeatedly stalled despite starting drives in favorable field position.
