The Bills<\/a> took down the Jacksonville Jaguars, 27-24, behind Allen\u2019s two rushing scores, including the game-winner on Sunday afternoon.<\/p>\n The fourth quarter was electric for both teams, as each scored two touchdowns in the 15 minutes that ensued. But it was Allen\u2019s second rushing score of the game that mattered most in the end.<\/p>\n CLICK HERE FOR MORE SPORTS COVERAGE ON <\/a>FOXNEWS.COM<\/a><\/p>\n Josh Hines-Allen of the Jaguars sacks Josh Allen of the Buffalo Bills during the AFC wild-card game at EverBank Stadium on Jan. 11, 2026, in Jacksonville, Florida. (Mike Carlson\/Getty Images)<\/p>\n Allen and the Bills\u2019 offense faced a 24-20 deficit after Trevor Lawrence found Travis Etienne Jr. for a 14-yard touchdown catch, where he broke one tackle and flew into the end zone. The Duval County crowd went nuts, but the clock was still in Buffalo\u2019s favor.<\/p>\n After all, we\u2019ve seen Allen have some good playoff heroics in the past. But he was 0-4 in road playoff games for his career coming into this contest, and the pressure was certainly on as Jacksonville\u2019s defense was making it hard for him all game.<\/p>\n Allen\u2019s first clutch moment of the drive came when he threw the ball 36 yards off his back foot to Brandin Cooks to flip the field into Jaguars territory<\/a>. Cooks stepped up with 58 yards on three receptions, including this key one down the stretch.<\/p>\n SUPER BOWL CHAMP CRITICIZES JAGUARS’ DECISION-MAKING IN CRUCIAL SPOT VS BILLS<\/a><\/p>\n Then, the Bills found themselves with a fourth-and-inches play, the game on the line from Jacksonville\u2019s 11-yard line. It wasn\u2019t hard to tell Buffalo was going to run their version of the tush push with Allen, but no one expected what happened next.<\/p>\n Not only did Allen get the push he needed for the first down, but his teammates continued to thrust him forward for 10 yards, almost finding the end zone.<\/p>\n On the very next play, after officials reversed their initial ruling of a touchdown, the Bills went back to the well as Allen was pushed into the end zone without much of a Jaguars threat. Jacksonville seemed to want them to score with just over a minute left to play and down three points.<\/p>\n Trevor Lawrence of the Jaguars throws a pass against the Buffalo Bills at EverBank Stadium on Jan. 11, 2026, in Jacksonville, Florida. (Mike Carlson\/Getty Images)<\/p>\n Given kicker Cam Little\u2019s leg \u2014 he reset the NFL\u2019s longest made field goal record earlier this season \u2014 Lawrence didn\u2019t need to go too far to allow a chance to send the game to overtime.<\/p>\n But on the very first play of the drive, a pass intended to Jakobi Meyers was tipped by Tre\u2019Davious White, who had a tremendous game, and intercepted by safety Cole Bishop. Bishop smartly fell to the turf and the game was over with the Jaguars not possessing any timeouts.<\/p>\n The Bills will now wait to see who their next opponent will be in the divisional round.<\/p>\n In the box score, Allen was 28-of-35 for 273 yards with a touchdown pass to Dalton Kincaid in the fourth quarter. He also had 33 rush yards on 11 carries, while James Cook had trouble all day against the league\u2019s top rushing defense, with only 46 yards on 15 touches in the backfield.<\/p>\n Khalil Shakir stepped up for Buffalo as well, hauling in all 12 of his targets for 82 yards.<\/p>\n For Jacksonville, Lawrence had three touchdown passes on his 30 attempts, but also two interceptions, the other by Shaq Thompson in the first half. He threw for 207 yards with 31 rushing yards on six attempts to close out his season.<\/p>\n Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen looks to pass against the Jacksonville Jaguars in an AFC wild-card at EverBank Stadium on Jan. 11, 2026.
