Bills and Broncos head to overtime in NFL divisional round

The Buffalo Bills and Denver Broncos are heading into overtime in their NFL divisional playoff matchup, tied 30-30 at the end of regulation. The game proceeded to overtime after a dramatic fourth quarter where Broncos quarterback Bo Nix connected with Marvin Mims for a 26-yard touchdown, giving Denver a 30-27 lead. Bills kicker Matt Prater responded with a 50-yard field goal to level the score.

In overtime, both teams are guaranteed a possession under NFL playoff rules, with 15-minute quarters continuing until there is a winner. The team winning the coin toss can choose to kick, receive, defer, or select which goal to defend. A touchdown on the first possession will not end the game, as the opposing team will still receive a chance to score. A defensive safety, however, will immediately conclude the game. The victor will advance to the AFC Championship Game.
