Ryan Fitzpatrick witnesses historical night in Buffalo as Bills advance to Divisional Round
Not many fans in attendance will have been as brave as Fitzpatrick in removing their clothing in those freezing temperatures but they will have been mightily impressed with Josh Allen and the Bills' performance. Unless you're a Patriots fan.
From the first kick-off to the final kneel-down in victory formation, the Bills were in total control. They became the first team in NFL history to score on their first seven possessions and did not punt, kick a field goal or turn the ball over.
Bills quarterback Josh Allen dismantled the Patriots defense in the air, throwing for five touchdowns and 308 yards. He also had 66 yards of rushing, backed up by running back Devin Singletary, who added two rushing touchdowns on 16 carries for 81 yards.
It was a night to remember for Bills fans as they blew out the Patriots to advance to the Divisional Round, where they will travel to Missouri for a showdown with Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs.
