Josh Allen and the Buffalo Bills put on a show in the snow during "Sunday Night Football" in Week 13, besting the San Francisco 49ers, 35-10.

Despite near-whiteout conditions and accumulating snow covering the field at Highmark Stadium, Allen finished the game with 166 total yards, four total touchdowns and a completion percentage of 76.5% on 17 attempts.

The 2024 MVP candidate also became the first player in NFL history to record a passing, rushing and receiving touchdown in the same game, which he did on a wild goal line lateral play with wide receiver Amari Cooper.

On Wednesday, the NFL announced Allen as the winner of the AFC Offensive Player of the Week award.

Los Angeles Chargers cornerback Tarheeb Still and New York Jets specialist Kene Nwangwu were the AFC's other recipients for Week 13.
