The Buffalo Bills secured their fifth consecutive AFC East title and clinched a playoff spot with a commanding 35-10 victory over the San Francisco 49ers in snowy conditions at Highmark Stadium. Quarterback Josh Allen delivered a historic performance, becoming the first quarterback in NFL history to record passing, rushing, and receiving touchdowns in a single game. Allen completed 13 of 17 passes for 148 yards and two touchdowns, rushed for a touchdown, and was credited with a touchdown reception on a rare play where he caught his own deflected pass, accounting for four total touchdowns. This marks the seventh time since the 1970 merger that a player has achieved this feat, with the last occurrence being Christian McCaffrey in 2022 against the Rams. Running back James Cook contributed significantly with 14 carries for 107 rushing yards and a touchdown. The win improves the Bills' record to 10-2, reinforcing Josh Allen's status as a frontrunner for the MVP award.
