Sean McDermott questions ruling on Ja'Quan McMillian interception in Bills' loss to Broncos

The Denver Broncos secured a spot in the AFC Championship Game following a 33-30 overtime victory against the Buffalo Bills. The win was sealed by a Wil Lutz field goal after a controversial turnover involving a disputed interception by Denver's Ja'Quan McMillian. During a key play, Bills quarterback Josh Allen targeted Brandin Cooks, who appeared to catch the pass but was ruled to have lost possession when hitting the ground, allowing McMillian to claim the ball. Referee Carl Cheffers confirmed the ruling after reviewing the play, stating Cooks did not complete the catch process.

Bills head coach Sean McDermott expressed frustration over the decision, emphasizing the need for a more thorough review during such critical moments. Despite his attempts to slow the game for further examination, the decision stood, contributing to the Bills' eighth postseason loss under McDermott's tenure.
