Bills fans are losing their minds after Lamar Jackson INT
Bills fans went crazy on Twitter when Lamar Jackson was intercepted in the endzone and Taron Johnson returned it 101 yards for a touchdown.
If you’re a Buffalo fan, you might be reading this while still trying to regain your breath after the wild events of the third quarter between the Bills and the Ravens.
Stefon Diggs’ go-ahead touchdown catch was just the start. It was Taron Johnson who turned anxiety into ecstasy when he picked off Lamar Jackson in the endzone and ran 101 yards to the opposite endzone for a touchdown.
It started like this:

The interception was a first for Jackson, who exited the game soon after because of a concussion.
That was Lamar Jackson's 1st career red-zone interception.

The touchdown return put Buffalo up 17-3 in front of a limited crowd of home fans.
The Bills won their first playoff game since 1996 last week when they narrowly beat the Colts, 27-24. The divisional round against the Ravens carries its own history. With a win, Buffalo would go to their first AFC title game since 1994. That was also their last Super Bowl appearance.
A Super Bowl run looks more realistic with a two-touchdown lead in the fourth quarter. The bigger question is who the Bills might face in the AFC Championship Game. If Kansas City wins on Sunday, Buffalo will have to make their way to the Chiefs with the Super Bowl berth on the line. If Cleveland pulls off a surprise upset, the Bills will host the AFC title game.
As it happens, the last time they made it to the Super Bowl, they had to get through the Chiefs to get there.
