Josh Allen has done a heck of a lot right for the Buffalo Bills since he was drafted in the first round in 2018.
The reigning league MVP has been considered one of the best quarterbacks in the sport today and has carried Buffalo to five straight division titles including multiple trips to the conference championship game.
As good as Allen has been, though, the Bills have struggled to put the finishing touches on the team to get past organizations like the Kansas City Chiefs in the playoffs.
With so many crushing playoff losses, it's not difficult to question when Buffalo's playoff woes will finally end.
And that is why CBS Sports writer Jeff Kerr believes that Allen's postseason troubles make him the quarterback under the most pressure to win a Super Bowl.
"The Bills can't get past the Chiefs in the playoffs, no matter how well Allen plays. There are other factors outside of Allen, who has the most playoff wins without reaching a Super Bowl (seven). The Bills just can't get out of their own way, and that includes Allen failing to convert a quarterback sneak on a "Tush Push" on fourth down in a conference championship game," Kerr said.
There is no denying Allen's work as an elite quarterback at this point in his career.

But as the playoff losses continue to mount, Allen's all-time legacy is greatly effected based on the games he hasn't been able to win.
Much like Dan Marino or Peyton Manning before he won his first title in 2006, Allen needs a Super Bowl ring to put him on the list of all-time greats. Anything less will only kill his legacy even more.
And the pressure continues to mount.
