Josh Allen didn’t hold back when talking about facing Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs during the 2024 AFC Championship Game. He admitted there’s a lot that frustrates him about that matchup as he recalls.
“It wouldn’t matter who it was to me, to be honest,” Allen said in an interview with ‘Bussin’ with the Boys’.

Allen and the Bills have had some rough playoff losses against the Chiefs over the years. Those losses haven’t just been tough in the moment—they’ve clearly stuck with him. You can tell it lights a fire under him, mixing frustration with determination. This isn’t just football for Allen; it’s personal.
“There’s stuff that pisses me off thinking about, things that I could have done differently or there was a first down and I just took my eyes off the ball and I dropped the ball and now it’s second and 12 instead of throwing an easy spot route. Now it’s second and four. It’s little s**t like that that adds up in those games and you just can’t have it in those games.”
The Bills are gearing up to face the Chiefs again. For Allen, this rivalry? It’s grown into something much bigger than just football. At the end of the day, what grabs attention is the mix of passion and pressure on the field.

Josh Allen spotted on date night with Hailee Steinfeld
Josh Allen took some time to unwind with his wife, Hailee Steinfeld, over a quiet dinner in Buffalo on August 10, 2025. It was just a day after the Bills’ preseason opener against the Giants, a game Allen sat out as the coaches gave him the night off. The backups—Mitch Trubisky, Mike White, and Shane Buechele—handled the action, but the Bills fell 34-25.

Josh Allen’s not sweating the preseason loss. His mind’s on the big picture: steering the Bills toward a solid season and, hopefully, a shot at the Super Bowl.
Just a day after Buffalo dropped the preseason opener, Allen was spotted out on the town with his wife, Hailee Steinfeld. The two tied the knot a few months back, back in May, and looked pretty laid-back during their dinner downtown. Hailee kept it simple in a black hoodie, hair casually pulled up. Josh went low-key in a brown shirt.
This date night came shortly after Steinfeld celebrated the first anniversary of her newsletter, Beau Society, with Allen expressing his pride in her achievement.
