The Denver Broncos held off the Buffalo Bills 33-30 Saturday night in the AFC Divisional Round, earning the right to host next week’s AFC Championship Game at home against the winner of the Houston Texans/New England Patriots.

Broncos cornerback Ja’Quan McMillian was pivotal in the win, fighting off Buffalo wide receiver Brandin Cooks for an interception in overtime. It originally looked like Cooks came up with the catch, but McMillian held onto the 50/50 ball and rolled over with it, earning the interception.

As the referees reviewed the play, CBS Sports’ rules analyst Gene Steratore agreed that it was an interception. He was right, and the interception kickstarted Denver’s game-winning drive.

“This is really close,” Steratore said. “I’m not sure that (Brandin) Cooks has possession coming to the ground there to say that it would be simultaneous. It feels to me like Cooks doesn’t have firm possession of the football, and they’re down by contact.”
