I’m making a promise to every Bills fan that I will use every bit of screen time I get on Hard Knocks to persuade @ToddGraves to put a Raising Canes in Buffalo
Let me just eviscerate you real quick.
Bills have made the playoffs 5 years in a row -- only Chiefs have done better.
It's not Allen's fault that Mahomes destroys his defense and he has to win shootouts.
He doesn't have the luxury like Brady and Burrow when their defenses shut Mahomes down for a half or a whole SB.
When Allen delivered one of the most clutch performances in playoff history in 2021, his D/ST still found a way to blow it with 13 seconds left. That was his year, 12 TDs in 16 playoff drives.
Unlike Brady in 2018, who avoided a season-ending INT because Dee Ford was offsides, Allen didn't get to see the ball in OT while Mahomes ended his season again.
If the Ravens beat KC, I bet it won't because Lamar outdoes Mahomes in a shootout. It will because the Baltimore defense steps up. Lamar is 0-3 in the playoffs when the Ravens give up more than 13 points. He'd implode in those games the Bills played against KC.
Allen has done enough by any normal standards, but the problem is he never gets his defense to hold Mahomes below average. McDermott's defense has failed him and that's the change they need to make in Buffalo.
