The snowy conditions were already pretty hazardous to player safety. The crowd filled the end zone with snowballs. And at one point, the authorities had to step in with a real threat. The Buffalo Bills would be fined with 15-yard penalties if the snowball storm continued. As if these conditions weren’t adverse enough, Josh Allen went one step ahead and endangered the entire season for the win on SNF.

Early in the fourth quarter, after a touchdown pass to Dawson Knox, Josh Allen leaped over an entire crew of Miami Dolphins stoppers for the 2-point conversion. And Sunday’s performance puts Josh in the top 3 contenders in the race for the MVP this season. Another potential candidate for the hardware, Tua Tagovailoa, had a decent night for Miami. He showed up with 2 touchdown throws in his 234 yards without a single interception. However, at the end, Tua simply got outplayed by his Bills counterpart.
