JUST IN: Bills’ Josh Allen Pinpoints What’s Keeping Team From Super Bowl Appearance
Since drafting quarterback Josh Allen in 2018, the Buffalo Bills have come close to reaching the Super Bowl but have fallen short each time. Despite Allen’s growth from a turnover-prone player to one of the NFL’s top quarterbacks, the Bills have been unable to secure a Super Bowl appearance despite five playoff berths in the last six years. These postseason runs have ended in various stages, from the wild-card and divisional rounds to the AFC championship game.
In a conversation with Sports Illustrated during Super Bowl week, Allen acknowledged the team’s need to make critical plays to overcome this hurdle. He expressed the sentiment that they are on the brink of success but emphasized the importance of executing when it matters most
When asked about facing the Kansas City Chiefs and their star quarterback Patrick Mahomes, who has been a significant obstacle for the Bills in the playoffs, Allen played down the significance of the matchup. He stressed that his focus remains on the game itself rather than individual quarterback matchups, emphasizing the importance of overcoming the opposing defense.
As the Bills continue their pursuit of a Super Bowl appearance, Allen remains determined to lead his team to success, regardless of the challenges they face along the way.
