The Broncos head coach flung his hands into the air, completely perplexed by his team’s inability to stop the juggernaut that is the Bills offense.
And there was still plenty more to come. Moments later, Jerry Hughes turned into Barry Sanders and returned the football 21 yards for a score on an incredible fumble recovery. On another drive, the Bills kept finding the end zone only to see the scores come off the board due to questionable penalties — Allen, caught audibly on camera, shouted: “How many times do we have to score?” With Buffalo up 35-13, Allen flung a 55yard bomb down the right sideline to Stefon Diggs seemingly for fun. And with Buffalo up 41-19, Devin Singletary decided to sprint 51 yards for the longest touchdown of his career.
The Bills didn’t just beat the Denver Broncos in Week 15 to clinch their first AFC East division title since 1995. They did it in style. They demolished, hammered, and smothered Denver all the way through.
There was really a no better way to once and for all show a changing of the guard in the division. This is no longer New England’s division to lose. This is Buffalo’s AFC East. And the Bills accomplished this feat in perhaps the best all around game they’ve ever had under Sean McDermott.
“It’s a great feeling,” cornerback Tre’Davious White said. “It’s the first time it’s been done in, what, 25 years? So it’s a huge step for this organization. ... To do it in this fashion is something that I don’t take lightly and I’m going to cherish for a lifetime.”

ALLEN GETS HISTORIC DEAL
Bills QB now under contract through 2028
Right back in the swing of things
It’s fair to say that this year’s Bills training camp looks wildly different from those of the past.
1st & Ten with STEFON DIGGS
Stefon Diggs had one of the best seasons ever by a Bills receiver in 2020, and he’s looking for an encore. Diggs was clearly amped up and ready to go as the Bills began their preparations for the new season, leading the huddle and supporting his teammates as they kicked off training camp in Orchard Park. Diggs recently touched on his goals for the upcoming season for both himself and the team in an informative discussion with members of the media. Here are the highlights from that discussion.
RUNNING BACKS: TOP AVAILABLE FREE AGENTS
Aaron Jones, Packers 5-9 • 208 pounds • 27 years old A fifth-round steal in the 2017 draft out of UTEP, Jones is equally proficient in the running and passing games. He rushed for more than 1,000 yards the last two years, and caught 49 and 47 passes, respectively. He’s also a touchdown machine with 30 TDs the last two years (25 rushing and 5 receiving). The son of two career Army officers, he’s a tough, driven player and the kind of guy players want on their team.
THE RIGHT STUFF?
Keeping two important starters is a priority as the right side of the O-line hits free agency
QUARTERBACKS: TOP AVAILABLE FREE AGENTS
Dak Prescott, Cowboys 6-2 • 235 pounds • 27 years old A solid starter who has a nice TD-INT ratio over his first five seasons (104-40), Prescott is an accurate thrower and very mobile. However, he’s coming off a compound fracture and dislocation of his right ankle, so it remains to be seen if this will impact his game moving forward.
TIGHT ENDS: TOP AVAILABLE FREE AGENTS
Hunter Henry, Chargers 6-5 • 250 pounds • 29 years old A very talented player, Henry has had issues staying healthy, unable to complete an NFL season, including missing the entire 2018 season with a torn ACL. But when healthy, he’s a terrific all-around tight end who really connected with Justin Herbert in 2020 with 60 catches. Henry is very good at finding holes in zone coverage.
