The pivotal win came after a series of controversial plays and penalties in overtime. The Bills, who won the coin toss, opted to kick, allowing the Broncos to possess the ball first. After a punt by Denver, Buffalo's Josh Allen advanced the Bills downfield, but a disputed interception by Ja'Quan McMillian on a pass intended for Brandin Cooks halted their progress.

Denver's Bo Nix capitalized on two key pass interference penalties against Bills defenders Taron Johnson and Tre’Davious White, the latter also receiving an unsportsmanlike conduct penalty.
