Bills snap terrible postseason streak, win first playoff game since 1995

The Bills have done it.

Buffalo won its Wild Card matchup against the Indianapolis Colts on Saturday, despite a late controversial non-call that briefly appeared to put the game in jeopardy.

The Bills did prevail though, and in doing so, snapped a 25-year streak of playoff futility.

The win gave Buffalo its first postseason NFL win since December 30, 1995, when the Bills beat the Miami Dolphins in an AFC Wild Card game. Since then … nothing.

Over two decades without a playoff win, while the Bills were forced to watch their division rival Patriots start a dynasty.

Yet now Josh Allen and the Bills have won, and Bill Belichick and the Patriots are watching the postseason from home. What a change a few years (or decades) can make.
