The NFL Playoffs are here! The most-anticipated time of the year kicks off with a unique matchup between the Denver Broncos and the Buffalo Bills.
The former has made it back into the playoffs for the first time since winning the Super Bowl in 2015, while the latter is looking more motivated than ever to make a successful championship run this season.
In this battle between the AFC West and AFC East, the Bills go up against the Broncos for the first time this year. It will be interesting to see because Buffalo has the MVP frontrunner in Josh Allen who is arguably having the best year of his career with 3,731 yards and 28 touchdowns.
For Denver, the future is bright as rookie Bo Nix has come in and done what a veteran like Russell Wilson was unable to take this team to the post-season. The duo of Sean Payton and Nix have been the silent killers of this season, which is why it will be interesting to see how they fare when it matters the most.

How can the Denver Broncos win?
The key for Denver to win lies in the hands of its defense. The team has a top-10 defense that has given up an average of 317.1 yards per game this season. They will need to keep Josh Allen in check early on as a snow game in Highmark Stadium means that the Bills will be in full form.
It will be integral for Bo Nix to step up on Sunday and he will need to refrain from turning the ball over as he has done so multiple times this season.
How can the Buffalo Bills win?
For Buffalo, the momentum will be in their favor for the entirety of the game as Bills Mafia is bound to show up in huge numbers. For Josh Allen, it has been a remarkable year wherein he has proven himself on the gridiron and achieved personal success off the field too. The best way to cap off this year will be by winning the Super Bowl and this version of Allen will show up ready to go on Sunday.
