LANDOVER, Md. (AP) Josh Allen threw and ran for a touchdown, Buffalo's defense forced five turnovers and the Bills won their second in a row after a rough season opener, routing Washington 37-3 Sunday to hand the Commanders their first loss of the year.

Allen was 20 of 32 with 218 yards passing, including a 35-yard TD pass to Gabe Davis. He added a 10-yard scamper into the end zone among his 46 yards rushing. His interception in the third quarter on third-and-20 functioned more like a long punt than his four backbreaking giveaways that contributed to Buffalo's Week 1 loss at the Jets.

The Bills (2-1) tormented Howell, sacking him nine times and piling up four interceptions - one each by Terrel Bernard, Micah Hyde and Tre'Davious White and A.J. Epenesa - the last being a pick-6 that sent Commanders fans to the exits. They also forced a fumble, improving to 19-2 since 2019 when facing a quarterback who has made 16 or fewer NFL starts.
