James Cook is Mr. Touchdown for the Buffalo Bills. The running back scored his second touchdown of the AFC Championship Game on Sunday in the third quarter to give the Bills a 22-21 lead. Cook took a pitch from Josh Allen on a fourth down and thrust the ball across the goal line as he was diving toward it.

In a budding instant classic, with Buffalo in position to take the lead for the first time all game at the end of the third quarter, Josh Allen and the Bills’ offense elected to put the ball in Cook’s hands on a fourth-and-goal play at the goal line.

Buffalo faced fourth-and-goal form the Chiefs' 1 with 2 minutes, 56 seconds left in the third quarter. Quarterback Josh Allen took a shotgun snap, ran an option and pitched the ball to Cook, who got low to the ground to try to evade safety Justin Reid.

The Chiefs opened the second half with a drive to the Buffalo 36, threatening to increase their 21-16 halftime lead.

Cook’s gutsiness and athleticism wowed fans, and former superstar NFL JJ Watt posted the perfect GIF to summarize the play, referencing the iconic Michael Jordan dunk from “Space Jam.” Cook and the Bills hope his acrobatic touchdown will lead them to victory, as Jordan’s fictional dunk did.

James Cook has been the Bills' key player through three quarters, and his second touchdown of the game might end up being the play of the night.
