ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. -- The extreme winter weather could only delay the celebration for the Buffalo Bills.

Kicking off 27-plus hours later than originally scheduled at Highmark Stadium, the Bills made up for lost time by beating the Pittsburgh Steelers, 31-17, in an AFC wild-card matchup that extended Buffalo's win streak to six games.

Quarterback Josh Allen threw first-quarter touchdown passes to tight ends Dawson Knox and Dalton Kincaid, later adding a personal record 52-yard touchdown run to stake the Bills to a 21-0 lead they would not relinquish.
