#Bills vs. #Steelers: Key matchups to watch in Wild-Card round:

The Buffalo Bills will host the Pittsburgh Steelers in their upcoming Wild-Card matchup at Highmark Stadium.

The two teams have been rigorously preparing for the contest throughout the past week. Buffalo (11-6) and Pittsburgh (10-7) will think they know their upcoming opponent, inside and out, after all the practicing and studying they have put in.

Because of that, despite all the off-field talking, speculation and discussion, it will still be the games, within the game, that will make all the difference when it comes to the final outcome of this upcoming weekend.

Led the way for the #Bills:

The Buffalo Bills won a tight 21-14 final in their Week 18 matchup against the Miami Dolphins.

The Bills (11-6) had a few players that stood out above the rest in this one. On offense, the Bills were led by quarterback Josh Allen and his second-half efforts.

Stock up, stock down following the Bills’ win over the Dolphins

Here is the stock report following Sunday’s 21-14 win over the Miami Dolphins:

The Buffalo Bills (11-6) came into Sunday’s game against the Miami Dolphins (11-6) needing one more win for them to win the AFC East and be the No. 2 seed in the AFC playoffs.

Thanks to some big contributions from players integral to the team, the Bills achieved their goal of running the table all the way to a home playoff game.

In this one, Buffalo star quarterback Josh Allen wasn’t perfect as he turned the football over three times, but he also delivered the kind of dual-threat performance that he is capable of doing in any outing. Allen took advantage of the Dolphins’ spotty coverage of wide receiver Khalil Shakir for arguably the biggest game of his career.

Along the way, the Bills saw playmakers like Shakir, Trent Sherfield, and Deonte Harty come up with huge plays along with some clutch plays by the defense. With that being said,
