The Bills were leading New York 14-10 at the point.
The camera malfunction halted the game for about 12 minutes. A snapped cable saw the skycam being lowered and removed before play could resume.
Watch:
The remote-controlled camera, used for overhead shots, dipped up and down over the field until a camera operator was able to corral it.
The teams resumed play, but the Jets were immediately called for a false start penalty. Three plays later, Wilson was sacked by Von Miller and his fumble was recovered by A.J. Epenesa to give Buffalo the ball.

A victory Sunday against the division rival New York Jets (5-3) would mark just the seventh time the Bills have won at least seven of their first eight games, which they also did in 1993.
While Buffalo has won each of the last four meetings, Sunday marks the first since Week 9 of the 2011 season in which the Bills and Jets both have winning records.
