The Bills All-Pro linebacker made two incredible plays on Ja’Marr Chase to prevent a touchdown.
It isn’t NFL football without a catch controversy.
In the second quarter of the Divisional Round matchup between the Buffalo Bills and Cincinnati Bengals, Joe Burrow was looking to add to his team’s 14-7 lead. On a third-and- goal play late in the first half, Burrow found All-Pro receiver Ja’Marr Chase in the back of the end zone and appeared to make it a 20-7 Bengals’ lead.
However, NFL officials stopped the play to take a closer look at the touchdown.

Manning and his son, Marshall, have had themselves a busy weekend.
Being Peyton Manning clearly has its perks. So too does being Peyton Manning’s son.
The Pro Football Hall of Famer and two-time Super Bowl champion made the most of his divisional round weekend with an East Coast swing to the Giants-Eagles game in Philadelphia on Saturday. He followed that up with a trip to Orchard Park for the Bengals-Bills matchup on Sunday, bringing his son, Marshall, along for the ride.
Josh Allen wanted ALL of the smoke after finding the end zone in the first half against the Bengals on Sunday. But the NFL apparently didn’t want anyone to see.
Midway through the second quarter, Buffalo faced 3rd-and-goal from the 1/2-yard-line. Sean McDermott called a quarterback sneak, a play that saw a massive uptick in usage during the 2022/23 NFL season.
With the new rules that allow players to push ball-carriers forward from the back, there is no reason not to run a quarterback sneak in short yardage situations.
Philadelphia responded to its coach’s inspirational video and finds itself to advance to the NFC championship. Plus, Chiefs prove they’re more than just Patrick Mahomes.
On Friday night at the team hotel, Eagles coach Nick Sirianni flipped on the closing battle scene from 8 Mile. In it, Eminem confronts Papa Doc—and everything Papa Doc knows about him, and everyone else knows about him—and uses all of it to take his rival down.
The moment became Eminem’s as a result.
The famed broadcaster revealed the encounter on social media.
Now that his first season at ESPN has concluded, Joe Buck has time off over the next few weeks. In the past, while with Fox Sports, Buck would have been working both this week and next to broadcast NFC playoff games. However, it doesn’t seem like everyone knows that Buck has switched networks.
Buck tweeted that he was home in St. Louis at a Starbucks location when a fan asked if he would be broadcasting the Cowboys‘ game at San Francisco.
Snow is expected at Highmark Stadium until 6 p.m. ET.
Snowflakes fell throughout Sunday’s AFC divisional playoff game between the Bills and Bengals in Orchard Park, N.Y., and fans couldn’t get enough of it.
At the beginning of the game, the field at Highmark Stadium looked all white as the snow covered the turf. It sounds as if the snow won’t be stopping during the game, either, as the Buffalo area is expected to receive approximately one to three inches of snow until about 6 p.m.
The Bengals’ all-white uniforms matched the snowy conditions perfectly, too.
The NFL divisional round continues with Joe Burrow and the Bengals battling Josh Allen and the Bills.
Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes suffered a high-ankle sprain during Saturday’s Divisional Round win over Jacksonville. He initially stayed in the game, then left and went to the locker room, then came back and finished the game.
It was a gutsy performance. Mahomes limped around the field and led his team to a victory. He said he plans to play in the AFC Championship next week. What a warrior.

No. 3 Purdue Boilermakers defeated the Maryland Terrapins 58-55. Zach Edey led the Boilermakers with 24-points and 16 rebounds.
Burrow moved up in the pocket and saw Chase, who had nobody around him when he caught the ball downfield and finished the play in the end zone.
