The Buffalo Bills found out the hard way just how good Jonathan Taylor is.
The Indianapolis Colts running back had a game for the ages, finishing with five total touchdowns, rushing for four on 185 yards and 32 carries while hauling in three catches for 19 yards and a receiving touchdown in a 41-15 rout over the Bills.
He tied the NFL record of eight straight with 100 yards from scrimmage and a rushing touchdown, which is also held by LaDaninian Tomlinson (2006) and Lydell Mitchell (1975-76).
His performance also made him the first to 1,000 rushing yards this season and moved him ahead of the injured Derrick Henry for the league lead and fans certainly enjoyed what he did to the Bills defense.
As for the Bills, Taylor’s performance was more insult to injury. Not only did they get embarrassed at home, but they have now lost three of their last five games and have fallen out of first place in the AFC East as the New England Patriots have begun to surge.
The Bills have to travel to New Orleans to face the Saints next week before returning home to host the Patriots on Monday Night Football in a game that could very well swing the division.
