The Denver Broncos got out to a 7-0 lead. That would be their last lead — and points — of the season.
The Buffalo Bills erupted for 31 straight points and rolled to victory in the AFC wild-card game on Sunday in Orchard Park.
The final score was 31-7 and sets up a matchup of Josh Allen and the Bills against Lamar Jackson and the Baltimore Ravens in the Divisional Round.

First, the Bills scored 28 points over the final three quarters and shut down the Broncos.
Allen threw for 272 yards and two touchdowns, including a spectacular TD catch by Ty Johnson on a fourth-down play in the third quarter.
James Cook had 120 rushing yards and a touchdown run.
This was the third wild-card game and all three have seen teams win by double digits.
The other AFC Divisional Round game will see the Houston Texans at the Kansas City Chiefs. All four AFC teams that remain are division winners.
The dates of the Divisional Round games will be determined after the completion of the wild-card round on Monday.
