Entering the 2020 season, Buffalo Bills general manager Brandon Beane said the team's goal this season was to host a playoff game.
Mission accomplished.
The Bills captured their first AFC East title since 1995 with a 48-19 win Saturday over the Denver Broncos, locking up their second-straight playoff berth and a home playoff game next month.
The division title is the latest milestone in Buffalo's turnaround under Beane and coach Sean McDermott, who has led the team to the playoffs in three of his first four seasons. Both Beane and McDermott received multi-year contract extensions in August, with the former crediting the opportunity to lead the franchise back to relevance as one of the deciding factors in him taking the job.
