The Buffalo Bills are in search of solutions after their recent 32-29 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs in the AFC Championship, marking the fourth time star quarterback Josh Allen has been defeated by Patrick Mahomes in the playoffs. This has led many to question whether the Bills can ever succeed against Kansas City in the postseason and if drastic changes are necessary. Despite these playoff setbacks, Allen expressed unwavering support for his coach, Sean McDermott.
“This is gonna sound weird, I’m just so proud of coach,” Allen stated, via Pro Football Talk. “I don’t know why he’s not recognized more in the awards stuff. That’s the cruddy thing about it. But time in and time out, he’s got us in position. . . . We’re fighting to get over that hump, and he gives his life to this. He’s so committed to doing whatever it takes.”
It seems both Allen and McDermott will remain with the team for the foreseeable future. Additionally, Buffalo has taken steps to ensure more consistency in the quarterback room by re-signing Shane Buechele to a one-year deal, as reported by PFT on Wednesday.
