At Kansas City, Mo., Rian Lindell kicked three field goals, and Buffalo intercepted Matt Cassel four times to beat struggling Kansas City.

Buffalo (5-8) overcame three turnovers and an ineffective passing game to finally close out a win in the fourth quarter. The Bills had lost seven times this season when they were within a touchdown headed into the final 15 minutes, pulling this one out with two interceptions in the final 2:11.

Kansas City (3-10) got a career-high 143 yards and a touchdown from Jamaal Charles, but couldn’t overcome another shaky game from Cassel, who threw three interceptions in the fourth quarter.

Buffalo’s Ryan Fitzpatrick threw for just 86 yards on 12-of-20 passing with an interception. He tossed a 9-yard touchdown pass to Terrell Owens and relied on Marshawn Lynch and Fred Jackson, who combined for 183 yards.
