Watch Bills fans go wild as Andy Dalton puts them into the playoffs
When you haven’t been to the playoffs since the Clinton Administration, you’re going to get excited once you finally return. And, man, did Buffalo Bills fans celebrate when Andy Dalton and the Cincinnati Bengals gave them the final push they needed to reach their first playoff game since 1999.
Here’s are a few views from the concourse of Hard Rock Stadium, where the Bills defeated the Dolphins a bit earlier on Sunday to put themselves into position to make the playoffs with a Ravens loss to the Bengals.
See if you can tell when Dalton throws the touchdown pass:

Could the Bills playoff run end as quickly as it started with a loss to the Jaguars next Sunday? Sure.
But if you’re a fan of any team except the Ravens, it’s hard to watch these clips and not feel happy for the Bills fan base right now.
