The Bills (8-7), despite the loss, remained in contention to break their 17-year playoff drought. It is the longest active streak in North America’s four major professional sports and the longest in the N.F.L. The Bills went into halftime tied at 13-13, but they managed just 3 points in the final 30 minutes. “When Kelvin Benjamin gains control, his left foot is off the ground,” Riveron wrote. Brady capped a nine-play, 75-yard drive with a 17-yard pass that Gronkowski pulled in with one hand to tie the game at 10-10.
