Josh Allen threw two touchdown passes, James Cook scored on a 5-yard run and finished with 120 yards rushing, and the Buffalo Bills leaned on a balanced offensive attack in a 31-7 win over the Denver Broncos in a wild-card playoff game.

Turning point The Broncos got gutsy. Down 10-7 in the second quarter, Riley Dixon faked a punt and then threw a 15-yard pass to Marvin Mims Jr. for a first down. However, the play didn’t generate the momentum Denver had hoped for.

There haven’t been many more compelling divisional round matchups than what we’ll get in Buffalo next week after the Bills easily dispatched Denver.
