ESPN: Josh Allen of the Bills drops truth bomb to the Chiefs after winning the division.
After winning the AFC East, Josh Allen discloses the primary goal.
With quarterback Josh Allen, the Buffalo Bills are enjoying their greatest season thus far. Allen has his sights set on his AFC opponent, the Kansas City Chiefs, after they defeated the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday Night Football to record their tenth victory of the season. After making NFL history with the victory, Allen told ESPN that he is focused on one goal and that winning the AFC East has a different vibe.
This early in the season, it seems a little different. Allen stated, “The cool thing about it is that we get to go out there and play freely.” We’re chasing the 1-seed, but there aren’t really any consequences for what we’re doing. We recognize that. We must continue to improve every week since we are aware of that.
However, going outside to play freely, unrestrained, and loose will be enjoyable. That may be a deadly squad, in my opinion.
On both sides of the ball, the Bills have been among the NFL’s most evenly distributed teams this season. Although they give up the sixth-fewest points (18.7) in the league, they boast the second-best scoring offense (29.6). Even if the numbers don’t support it, Allen believes he has played excellent football. He has only had five interceptions while throwing for 2,691 yards and 20 touchdowns. Allen has significantly improved his efficiency following a 2023 season marred by errors.
The Bills may defeat the Chiefs for the top seed due to their superiority on both sides.
Allen hadn’t made an interception in the first seven weeks. The Bills are better balanced even though they lost Stefon Diggs to the Houston Texans during the offseason. Their defense has, of course, much improved, particularly with Gregory Rousseau’s development. In any case, throughout the season, they have played balanced football.
These allegations have been dispelled after Sean McDermott, the head coach of the Bills, was fired following the 2023 season. Having a taste of home-field advantage increased the desire to perform in front of Buffalo fans, even after Buffalo defeated Kansas City at home in Week 11. In any case, McDermott acknowledged that their primary priority is to earn the AFC’s top seed.
“I think positioning ourselves as best we can is our next objective,” McDermott stated. We have some influence over that, but not all of it. Therefore, it truly comes down to our weekly performance level and reaching the necessary level, which often puts you in a favorable position.
The Detroit Lions are the only other team the Bills play that is presently above.500. Both clubs may be able to play an early Super Bowl meeting as a result of the interconference clash.
