The Buffalo Bills defeated the Minnesota Vikings 23-6 on Monday Night Football, improving to 7-1 and handing Minnesota its second loss of the season. The game is over, so fans looking for a live score should see a final result rather than an active game clock.
For the score, play-by-play details, and postgame coverage, start with the Vikings’ official game center or the Bills’ game recap. The NFL also lists the final score on its Vikings team page.
Buffalo won 23-6 in the Week 9 matchup. The Bills led 10-6 at halftime, then held Minnesota scoreless in the second half. A James Cook III rushing touchdown in the fourth quarter helped Buffalo pull away, and a Tyler Bass field goal completed the scoring.
The Vikings hosted the game at U.S. Bank Stadium. Kickoff was scheduled for Monday, November 9, at 7:15 p.m. in Minneapolis, Central Standard Time (UTC-06:00), which was 1:15 a.m. UTC on November 10. In Toronto, that was 8:15 p.m. Eastern Standard Time (UTC-05:00) on November 9. The stadium’s event listing confirms the venue, date, and scheduled local kickoff.
The official team and league pages are useful starting points for readers in Canada who want to check the result without relying on a search snippet that may be out of date.
On a score page, check both the game date and the status label. A page marked “Final” refers to the completed November 9 game; a score without a final label during a future matchup could still change. Refresh the page if the displayed status looks stale, and open the game details for the scoring summary or box score rather than relying only on the headline number.
Buffalo’s defense was central to the result. According to the Bills’ recap, the team forced three turnovers and held the ball for 42 minutes, 32 seconds, compared with Minnesota’s 17 minutes, 28 seconds. That possession advantage limited the Vikings’ opportunities while Buffalo built its lead.
Cook ran 31 times for 107 yards and a touchdown, according to the team. His five-yard fourth-quarter score extended Buffalo’s advantage to 20-6. Bass later made a 52-yard field goal to put the final margin at 17 points. Minnesota’s six points came from two field goals.
Those figures help explain the score, but a box score and play-by-play serve different purposes. The box score summarizes totals; the play-by-play shows when drives, turnovers, and scoring plays happened. Use both if you want to reconstruct how the game developed.
The result gives Buffalo a 7-1 record and leaves Minnesota at 6-2. Both teams remain in contention, but a single November result does not determine playoff qualification or seeding. Those outcomes will depend on later games and league tiebreakers.
Buffalo’s recap lists its next game as a road matchup against the New York Jets on Sunday, November 15. Schedules and broadcast arrangements can change, so check the team or league schedule closer to kickoff. Canadian viewers should also confirm availability with their own television or streaming provider; a U.S. broadcast listing alone does not establish Canadian viewing rights.
