ORCHARD PARK, NY – The Buffalo Bills held the lead over the Indianapolis Colts on a 35-yard fourth-quarter pass in their AFC wildcard game on Saturday.

It was Allen’s third completion of Saturday’s 30 air yards. It is the first time that Allen has completed three passes from more than 30 air yards in one game.

The Bills took an early lead on a shot put from Allen to tight end Dawson Knox.

In second and third place of the Colts 3-yard line, Allen took the snap on what appeared to be a designed run, but was quickly met by Indianapolis defenders Tyquan Lewis and Anthony Walker. Allen scrambled to the right and remained upright just long enough to see Knox wide open in the end zone. While brought to the ground, Allen threw the ball to Knox, who caught it with no one around him.

Allen was electric on the ride, scrambling 12 yards for a first down before hitting Diggs for a 36 yards win on the next game. Diggs was hit almost immediately after the catch, but stuck to put the Bills on the Colts’ 37-yard line. Allen completed 5 of the 7 passes on the drive for 67 yards and the score.
