The Buffalo Bills found their fulfillment in the final stretch of the season. In the most pressing stage of the calendar, the New Yorkers have quickened their pace to get into postseason positions. After an irregular year, last night they confirmed their good moment against the Los Angeles Chargers.
At the Sofi Stadium, they beat the locals 24-22, extending their streak to three games without defeat.
After their victories against the Kansas City Chiefs and the Dallas Cowboys, those led by Sean McDermott could not afford to fall to a team with a negative record, and even less so at a time when the American Conference is very close.
Buffalo had a rival in front of them to get closer to the wild cards.
Seven franchises advance from each conference and the Bills were not among them before the game. Located in eighth place with a three-way tie with the Jacksonville Jaguars, the Indianapolis Colts and the Houston Texans – all with an 8-6 record – Buffalo was obliged not to disappoint its fans.
Although they started losing by 10 points; Josh Allen, their quarterback, was in charge of leading the comeback.
Considered among the five best quarterbacks of the league, Allen threw a 57-yard pass with Gabe Davis to start his own show on the field.
Moments later, he himself scored the second score of the night on the ground.
His 1.96 height has never been an impediment to running. There is no clumsiness in his movements, he executes them with such agility that it seems that the ball is not being carried by a quarterback.
This is the talent of Josh Allen on the field, a man who can define the game for you in the air or on the ground; a versatile player, different in the trenches, even feared by rivals.
Once again, the tall pitcher stole the spotlight and for the second time carried the ball to the end zone to make the score 21-13.
The reaction of the Angelenos, however, was nothing short of dampening Allen’s good performance.
The Chargers almost cut short the aspirations of the Bills, who conceded three field goals in the fourth quarter.
However, with 28 seconds remaining in the match, Tyler Bas connected with a 29-yard kick to achieve the victory that puts Buffalo in the wild card zone. At the moment his record is the sixth best in the conference, ahead of the Jaguars, Colts and Texans, even with their game pending today.
