The Buffalo Bills are going to the playoffs for the first time in 18 years, and they couldn't have done it without some help from Andy Dalton.

Entering Sunday, the Bills needed a win against the Miami Dolphins and an upset win by the Cincinnati Bengals over the Baltimore Ravens in order to make the playoffs for the first time since 1999. Shockingly, Cincinnati came through. Facing fourth-and-12 from midfield, Dalton found Tyler Boyd who escaped defenders to find the end zone. That ended the Ravens season and sent Buffalo to the playoffs.

With this in mind, Bills fans have been donating to the Andy & Jordan Dalton Foundation
