Tyrod Taylor threw for 244 yards and one touchdown as the Bills offense and defense did just enough against the Patriots to secure their second win in Foxborough since 2001, a 16-0 victory over New England on Sunday. And Bills fans could not be more excited about the "W".
The Bills improve to 2-2, while the Patriots are now 3-1.
Against third string quarterback Jacoby Brissett, the Bills shutout the Pats for the first time at Gillette Stadium. It’s also the first time New England was shutout at home since 1993.

Buffalo limited New England to just 98 yards in the first half and forced four punts on their first five drives. The Patriots most promising opportunity for points ended with Brissett losing a fumble late in the second quarter.
