Audacy • • sports
Key Points:
- The Buffalo Bills secured a thrilling 28-27 comeback victory over the Pittsburgh Steelers, finishing the 2026 preseason undefeated at 3-0.
- Key performers included Keonta Jenkins with a sack and five solo tackles, Frank Gore Jr. contributing both in rushing and receiving, and Skyler Bell leading receivers with seven catches and a touchdown run.
- Quarterback Shane Buechele completed 77.8% of his passes for 196 yards and orchestrated the game-winning drive late in the fourth quarter without any turnovers.
- The Bills' pass defense limited the Steelers to just 135 passing yards and 3.8 yards per attempt, but struggled in red zone defense, allowing touchdowns on all three Steelers' trips inside the 20.
- Areas of concern included muffed punt returns by Ray Davis, missed tackles by Max Hairston, a weak running game with only 89 total rushing yards, and drops by Mecole Hardman on crucial plays.
