Buffalo Bills top Baltimore Ravens, will play for AFC title - ESPN

ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. — Josh Allen ran for two touchdowns, and the Buffalo Bills defeated Lamar Jackson and a turnover-prone Baltimore Ravens team 27-25 in the AFC divisional round on Sunday.

Baltimore, which turned the ball over three times in the loss, had a chance to tie the score in the final two minutes, but tight end Mark Andrews dropped a pass from Jackson on a 2-point conversion attempt. Andrews lost a fumble, as well, earlier in the fourth quarter.

«Nobody cares more and fights more than Mark,» Ravens coach John Harbaugh said of Andrews. «We wouldn't be here without Mark Andrews.

»It's like anything else: Destiny is a decision that you make and how you handle what comes in life. And Mark will handle it fantastic."

Now, the Bills will take on Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs at Kansas City next Sunday in the AFC Championship Game for their fourth playoff matchup in five years. The Chiefs have defeated the Bills three straight times in the playoffs, including the conference title game four years ago in Kansas City.

Allen scored on runs of 1 yard and 4 yards, while Ray Davis also scored on a 1-yard carry for Buffalo. Tyler Bass hit both field goal attempts, including a 21-yarder with 3:29 left after the Bills stalled at Baltimore's 2-yard line. That drive was set up by the Ravens' third turnover, as linebacker Terrel Bernard stripped the ball from Andrews at Buffalo's 44-yard line.

The Bills continued playing complementary football to overcome a patchwork defense and an offense that didn't have a receiver reach 900 yards this season. Buffalo finished the regular season with a league-best plus-24 turnover differential.

That continued on Sunday with a turnover-free game from Allen and the Bills, who were just good enough
