• The Bills won the game 17-3 to advance to the AFC Championship.

A very bad 53 seconds doomed the Baltimore Ravens.

Trailing the Buffalo Bills, 10-3, with 58 seconds remaining in the 3rd quarter, Lamar Jackson had the Ravens on the Bills' 9-yard line, looking for a score to cut the Bills' lead to one.

Instead, Jackson badly misread the defense and threw it right to Bills cornerback Taron Johnson, who took the ball 101 yards for the score.

Johnson even managed to out-run Jackson to the end zone.

Moments later, things got worse.

On 2nd-and-10 from the Ravens' 35, with five seconds remaining in the quarter, the Ravens' snap went flying over Jackson's head. Jackson was able to get the ball and fling it out of bounds before he was called for a safety. However, as he threw the ball, he was crushed by two Bills defenders and his head hit the ground.

Jackson laid on the ground for a while before he was taken back to the locker room. Minutes later, the Ravens announced he was out with a concussion.

The Ravens had a chance to cut into the lead with over over six minutes remaining, but rookie backup quarterback Tyler Huntley over-threw Marquise Brown for what surely would have been a touchdown.

Windy conditions in Buffalo had an impact on the game, but they seemed to adversely affect the Ravens. Star kicker Justin Tucker hit two field goals off the uprights in the first half, costing the Ravens six points that could have been crucial later on.

The Bills now advance to the AFC Championship to play the winner of the Kansas City Chiefs-Cleveland Browns game.
