A controversial no-call for holding against Bills tight end Dalton Kincaid sparked outrage among fans during Sunday's playoff game against the Denver Broncos. The incident occurred during a crucial third-down play in the third quarter, with the Bills driving deep into Broncos territory. Quarterback Josh Allen was sacked, forcing the Bills to settle for a field goal, extending their lead to 13-7.
Replays showed Broncos defensive back Patrick Surtain II appearing to hold Kincaid in the end zone as Allen scrambled to find an open receiver. Despite Allen's apparent discussion with head referee Bill Vinovich, no penalty was called. This non-call drew the ire of fans, who felt it significantly impacted the game's momentum.
The Bills eventually extended their lead with a touchdown later in the second half. The Broncos attempted a comeback but fell short when kicker Will Lutz missed a field goal. The game began with a 43-yard touchdown pass from Broncos quarterback Bo Nix to Troy Franklin, but Denver's offense struggled to find the end zone afterward.
