The “tush push” has become one of the most unstoppable plays in football, but the Buffalo Bills may have just taken it to a whole new level.
During the fourth quarter of Sunday’s AFC Wild Card showdown against the Jacksonville Jaguars, Buffalo delivered a version of the play that felt straight out of a video game. Trailing 24–20 with just 1:10 remaining, the Bills faced a critical snap from the Jaguars’ 10-yard line. Quarterback Josh Allen took the snap, lowered his shoulder, and with a full convoy of teammates behind him, was literally pushed all the way to the 1-yard line.

No Mahomes, no Burrow, no Lamar Jackson. Josh Allen is the alpha dog in the AFC.

The initial ruling on the field was a touchdown, as it looked like the entire pile crossed the goal line. After review, officials spotted the ball just short, placing it at the 1. No problem.
On the very next play, Buffalo lined up and ran the exact same tush push again. This time, Allen powered through cleanly and scored, capping off a dramatic, physical, and unforgettable sequence that ended up being the game-winning touchdown.
It was a reminder of just how difficult the Bills are to stop in short-yardage situations, especially with a quarterback built like a linebacker and an offensive line willing to move the entire defense backward. One play covered nine yards. The next covered the final 12 inches. Together, they delivered one of the most dominant goal-line pushes fans have ever seen.
