Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen has some words for those in the stands who left the Baltimore Ravens game early.
The Buffalo Bills already have a reason to celebrate at the start of their 2025-26 season, following a thrilling comeback win during their opening game against the Baltimore Ravens on Sunday, September 7. The Bills were trailing by so much in the fourth quarter, that a lot of the people at the game pretty much had given up on them.
You see it happen in sports all the time. The crowd loses hope, and when it seems like there’s no coming back, a bunch of them decide to just go home. It’s understandable, especially if it’s a late game and people have to work in the morning, but sometimes, it’s worth it to just hang on a little bit longer.
Those in the stadium in Buffalo who stayed certainly got rewarded in the form of seeing their team win with a field goal in the last second of the matchup. They also saw MVP-winning quarterback Josh Allen get super excited on the field after the team’s big comeback showing. Following the game, Allen, one of the top quarterbacks in the NFL, had message for fans who left before the game was over.
Josh Allen Has a Request for Buffalo Bills Followers
After the game, Allen spoke with the media, and he praised his team and said that they “didn’t quit.”
He also had a five-word request for those in the stadium who left early: “Have some faith next time.”
For full context, he said, “I think there are people who left the stadium. That’s okay. We’ll be fine. But, have some faith next time.”
There is a very good chance those in Bills jerseys will think twice before they leave early next time. So, Josh, they’ll be following your advice.
Buffalo Bills Quarterback Josh Allen is Giving Back
Early this week, Allen announced that he’s joining the New Balance family. In a letter to his hometown of Firebaugh, California, he discussed how special that place is to him and said that he shares his successes with that hometown.
“Firebaugh didn’t have quarterback camps or private trainers. We had heart. We had community,” he said in an open letter. “And I wouldn’t trade that for anything.”
Allen also says that his MVP award isn’t just for him. It’s for his entire Firebaugh community and family.
“That’s why it feels right to share this next chapter with you,” he adds. “I’m proud to share that I’ve joined the New Balance family, a brand that, like Firebaugh, is built on family, community and authenticity.” He continues, “My parents, the greatest role models I could ask for, built their lives on those principles and raised my siblings and me the same way. So, when New Balance asked me to come on board, it felt like coming home.”
Allen also announced that he and New Balance are “making a commitment to Firebaugh to help fund its community sports program in the hopes of providing access to sports, regardless of ability to pay, to help young athletes access sports and chase their dreams.”
Allen has already helped make dreams come true for those who follow the Bills. He did it again on Sunday.
