Jan 20, 2025, 02:37 AM

The Buffalo Bills have advanced to the AFC Championship Game after defeating the Baltimore Ravens with a close score of 27-25. This victory sets up a highly anticipated rematch against the Kansas City Chiefs, scheduled for next Sunday at 6:30 p.m. ET on CBS. Josh Allen played a pivotal role in the win, rushing for two touchdowns and passing for 127 yards despite a modest passing performance. The game was marked by critical turnovers from the Ravens, including a fumble by tight end Mark Andrews and a dropped two-point conversion attempt that could have tied the game. The Bills capitalized on these mistakes, scoring 10 points off the Ravens' three turnovers. Lamar Jackson, despite throwing for 254 yards and two touchdowns, had two turnovers in the game. The Ravens outgained the Bills 416 to 273 total yards, but it was the giveaways that did them in. This matchup will be the fourth time in five seasons that the Bills and Chiefs meet in the playoffs, with Kansas City having won the previous three encounters.
