Cbssports reports the Denver Broncos advanced to the AFC Championship after a 33-30 overtime win over the Buffalo Bills at Mile High, but the victory came with a major loss when starter Bo Nix suffered a fractured ankle in overtime. Will Lutz converted a 23-yard game-winning field goal in OT after Ja'Quan McMillian intercepted Josh Allen’s deep attempt to Brandin Cooks.

The game featured multiple momentum swings: Allen led a 10-0 run early in the fourth to put Buffalo up 24-23, then Nix answered with a 26-yard touchdown to Marvin Mims Jr. inside the final minute to make it 30-27, and Allen drove for a field goal with 50 seconds left to force overtime.

Nix finished 26-of-46 for 279 yards, three touchdowns and an interception, with Mims catching eight passes for 93 yards and a score. Allen was 25-of-39 for 283 yards, three touchdowns, two interceptions and two fumbles; his four turnovers tied a career high and left him 0-7 in overtime in his NFL career.
