Week 15 of the NFL holds significant weight for the Buffalo Bills. Josh Allen and his team will head to Ford Field to face the Detroit Lions in a game that could preview this year’s Super Bowl. The Bills’ star quarterback anticipates a challenging contest against Jared Goff.
Under head coach Sean McDermott, the Bills are coming off a tight loss to the Los Angeles Rams, where Allen delivered an impressive performance despite the defeat. With six touchdown passes, Allen remains a strong contender for the MVP award this season.
Speaking to the media after the game, the former Wyoming standout acknowledged the Lions’ strength: “They’re the top dog in football right now,” Allen said.
He emphasized the importance of learning from the Rams game and focusing on preparation for the Lions. The matchup is set for Sunday, December 15, in the second slate of games.
The Bills currently boast a 10-3 record, leading the AFC East comfortably. The Dolphins trail far behind, while the Jets and Patriots are out of playoff contention.
Allen Reflects on Rams Loss
Josh Allen knows football can be merciless. Despite delivering one of his best performances for the Bills, his team ultimately fell to the Rams. Allen’s brilliance at SoFi Stadium wasn’t enough to change the outcome, and he shared his thoughts postgame.
“We have to come out with some urgency,” Allen stated during his press conference. “I don’t think at any phase of the game did we do that today.”
Bills’ Final Stretch of the Season
As they approach the season’s conclusion, the Bills aim to finish strong. Their final four games include one tough opponent and three teams already out of playoff contention.
The Bills will first face the Lions, followed by hosting the New England Patriots and New York Jets. They’ll end their regular season in Foxborough for another game against the Patriots.
