The Buffalo Bills were big favorites in their AFC Wild-Card Game on Sunday at Highmark Stadium against the Miami Dolphins.
The AFC East champs were out and winging in the first quarter.
Josh Allen connected with Stefon Diggs to get the Bills deep in Miami territory.
The quarterback then zipped a pass by a Miami defensive back to tight end Dawson Knox, who did the rest with a great grab for the score
