Josh Allen isn’t mad at some of the Bills Mafia. He’s just disappointed.
Following one of the wildest wins in Buffalo Bills history, Allen was interviewed by NBC Sports’ Melissa Stark.
In his interview, Allen noted that some fans left before the final whistle. He said that was okay, but he had a pointed five-word message for the fan base.
“Have some faith next time,” Allen said with a smile.
Here’s everything Allen said to Stark.
“There’s just no quit in this team. Welcome to Buffalo,” Allen remarked. “What a vet, kicking the game-winning field goal in a tough, weird situation you don’t see too often. He came in prepared and ready to go.”
Allen added, “Our team didn’t quit. I think there’s people that left the stadium. That’s okay. We’ll be fine. Have some faith next time.”
Buffalo’s franchise quarterback didn’t do it alone, but he did much of the heavy lifting. Against one of the NFL’s best defenses, Allen was able to pick the unit apart.
He completed 33-of-46 passes for 394 yards and two touchdowns through the air. Allen added another 30 yards and two scores on the ground.
Despite the game seeming out of hand for much of the second half, Allen and the Bills were able to dig themselves out of a 15-point hole late in the fourth quarter and leave Highmark Stadium with a 41-40 win.
Buffalo now sits alone atop the AFC East after the Miami Dolphins, New England Patriots and New York Jets all dropped their Week 1 matchups. If it weren’t for Allen’s heroics, we would be looking at a four-way tie within the division.
