AFC East Champs, Bills Ride Momentum

Buffalo’s seven-game win streak highlights their resilience after a rocky start to the season. Against the 49ers, the Bills showcased offensive and defensive dominance. Ray Davis opened the scoring with a powerful 5-yard touchdown run in the first quarter. James Cook followed with a 65-yard touchdown burst, and Josh Allen capped off a stellar first half with a 7-yard touchdown pass to Mack Hollins, completing a 97-yard drive.

Allen’s versatility was on full display in the third quarter, orchestrating a highlight-reel 9-yard touchdown run after a flip pass from Amari Cooper. He later sealed the victory with an 8-yard scramble in the fourth quarter, cementing the Bills’ position atop the AFC East.

Buffalo’s dominant performance vaulted them to No. 2 in ESPN’s latest NFL Power Rankings, a four-spot jump. Head coach Sean McDermott and Allen celebrated the win with snow angels on the field, a lighthearted moment reflecting the team’s high spirits.

Now, the Bills prepare for the Rams, aiming to extend their win streak to eight games and enter the playoffs in peak form. With the 11-1 Kansas City Chiefs and other AFC powerhouses awaiting in the postseason, consistency remains key for Buffalo’s championship aspirations. Josh Allen will also look to further solidify his MVP candidacy as he currently leads the odds.
