Stefon Diggs, the Buffalo Bills wide receiver, made the most memorable tackle of the night, during his Divisional Round matchup against the Kansas City Chiefs in the Arrowhead Stadium. No, the tackle was not made against a Chiefs player but rather an overwhelmingly excited fan who had invaded the field just for some extra thrill.
The Bills star wideout gave that fan the thrill he sought on the field. Diggs hammered down the invader who was sporting a Kansas City Chiefs jersey. After sneaking onto the turf, the invader ran towards the line of scrimmage with security guards on his tail, just like a wide receiver being chased by a cornerback.

Stefon Diggs tackles down a man wearing Kansas City Chiefs jersey
As Diggs saw the invader coming towards him, the receiver plunged forward and tackled down the Chiefs fan knocking his soul out of his body. The security then wrapped the man and took him out of the field. Witnessing all of that happening in the field, the CBS commentator Tony Romo joked about Stefon taking out his frustration over the man wearing the Chiefs jersey.
“Oh, we got a little tackle on the field here with someone running out,” Romo said. “Diggs took out some frustration on him.” The pitch invasion occurred during the two-minute break in the fourth quarter when the Bills were in possession of the ball and headed towards the Chiefs’ end zone to recover their lead.

Best game of the season
Although they did score a touchdown in that drive, in the end, lost the game to an overtime loss. However, it would not be fair to say that Patrick Mahomes played better than Josh Allen. Josh after losing the coin toss for the overtime, couldn’t get the chance to lead the team for a score in the end, in fact, he did not even touch the ball during the overtime.

Arguably, it was the best game of the 2021 season. Touchdowns rained on both sides, with no one backing down. The two quarterbacks scored four touchdowns each, and it was hard to evaluate who was the better one. However, the Chiefs advanced to the AFC Championship for the fourth time in a row. They will be meeting the Cincinnati Bengals next.
