Referee Bill Vinovich was spotted having a conversation with Bills quarterback Josh Allen following a controversial non-call.

Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen revealed what referee Bill Vinovich said to him during the playoff game vs. Denver.

When the NFL announced its officiating assignments for the weekend’s wild-card round games, Bills fans were notably upset to see that Bill Vinovich’s crew was tabbed to work Buffalo’s game against the Broncos.

Head referee Bill Vinovich came over to Allen while he was sitting on the bench afterwards and spoke to him. Many believed Vinovich was explaining to Allen why a penalty wasn't called, which is a very odd occurrence. Referees do not wander over to the bench to chat to players very often, especially not star quarterbacks while they sit on the bench.

Oddsmakers have set them as just 1.5-point underdogs to win the AFC title game, and Allen and company did beat the Chiefs in the regular season. Allen's playoff record as an underdog (1-3, 0-3 on the road) is concerning, but the Bills did technically upset the Ravens on Sunday.

With Buffalo leading early in the third quarter of Sunday's wild-card game against the Denver Broncos, the Bills ran a pass play on third-and goal while holding a 10-7 lead. Broncos cornerback Patrick Surtain II grabbed a hold of Bills tight end Dalton Kincaid and spun him around in the back of the end zone.

The Bills held on for a thrilling 27-25 win over the Ravens to advance to the AFC Championship Game. Here's how Sal Maiorana graded their performance.

Lamar Jackson and the Ravens made things interesting, but Buffalo's defense held on to give the Bills a victory in Sunday's AFC divisional round matchup.

Throughout the season, Surtain was known for his ability to blanket opposing No. 1 receivers and completely erase them from the game. In this wild-card game, he'll be remembered for getting away with an egregious holding penalty on Bills' tight end Dalton Kincaid.

Josh Allen and the Bills' run game got whatever they wanted against the Broncos' defense on Sunday, as Buffalo advanced to face Baltimore in next week's divisional round.
