Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen got an honest opinion from one analyst, particularly with how similar his situation with the Bills has been to LeBron James and the Cleveland Cavaliers back in the day.
In one of the recent episodes of “The Herd,” Fox Sports host and analyst Colin Cowherd expressed his concern about how quarterback Josh Allen has grown to be a “superhero” for the Bills. He pointed out how similar this is to how LeBron James has been for the Cleveland Cavaliers during his time with the franchise.

“The Bills have a, and I would be worried about this, they have a LeBron-Cavs feel to him,” Cowherd said. “That he’s gotta score 42 and have a triple-double to beat the good teams. The Bills have one route to win huge games. Josh Allen has to do that, and I think last night was unquestionably his greatest performance, and he’s got about 12 like this.”

Thousands of Bills fans began heading for the exits late in the fourth quarter Sunday at Highmark Stadium, convinced the game was out of reach as Buffalo trailed Baltimore 40-25. What followed, however, became one of the most improbable comebacks in NFL history.
The comeback was memorable as this was the 1st time in history an NFL team erased a 15-point deficit in the last four minutes of the game to win. After not converting a two-point conversion attempt, the Bills’ defense stepped up to force a stop. Allen then led a 66-yard drive in nine plays. After securing the win, Allen did not seem to be shy in addressing the fans who bolted the gate early.
“Our team didn’t quit,” Allensaid in a postgame interview via NBC. “I think there are people who left the stadium. That’s okay, we’ll be fine. But have some faith next time.”
