ORCHARD PARK, N.Y.
— Josh Allen scored a receiving touchdown on a pass he threw in his latest do-everything performance, and the Buffalo Bills clinched their fifth straight AFC East title with a 35-10 victory over the San Francisco 49ers on a snowy Sunday night.
“He pitched it, and I had to go make the play. It was dope," Allen said, before putting the division-clinching win into perspective. “The only thing this does is guarantee us a spot in the playoffs. Still a lot to learn and grow from.” Buffalo has won seven straight since back-to-back losses to Baltimore and Houston, and is 10-2 or better for the fifth time in team history and first since 1991. The Bills became the NFL’s eighth team, and first since Indianapolis in 2009, to clinch a division title with five games remaining.
Shanahan believes McCaffrey was hurt on an 18-yard run up the middle. The All-Pro running back stayed in the game and on the next play appeared to step awkwardly with his left foot on the snow-slicked field and went down immediately. After being examined on the sideline, he limped to the locker room and was ruled out at the start of the second half.
Very little went right for the 49ers, who were missing five starters due to injury and are in jeopardy of missing the playoffs a season after losing the Super Bowl to Kansas City.
