NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — All NFL football fans ready to anoint the Buffalo Bills as the best team in the AFC may want to cool their jets for a while.

Derrick Henry scored his third touchdown with 3:05 left before the Titans stopped quarterback Josh Allen on a fourth-down sneak to end the Bills’ four-game winning streak, 34-31. The AFC East-leading Bills drove to the Titans 3 on their final possession and could have sent the game to overtime with a field goal. Instead, they went for the win and turned the ball over on downs with 12 seconds left.

Henry finished with 143 yards, topping 100 for the fifth consecutive game. He also had a 76-yard TD run and a 3-yarder. Quarterback Ryan Tannehill added another TD run against a Buffalo defense that came in third against the run.

Allen finished with 353 yards passing and three TDs.

Both teams are 4-2, one game behind Baltimore for the conference lead.
