when they return to the airport around 2 a.m. This is the reception they got for winning the A F C East title for the first time in 25 years.

Look, there's a lot to be excited about if you're a Bills fan right now.

But realistically, they've been looking for a quarterback for 25 years.

Last time they won that a F C East title.

So, Matt, how good is Josh Allen right now, listen, you guys know I love Patrick Mahomes.

I think he's probably the best quarterback in the game right now.

Josh Allen is every bit as good as Patrick Mahomes.

It is so impressive he makes it look easy.

And when I watch, I mentioned it last week.

When I watch Josh Allen play football play quarterback, he looks to me like Patrick Mahomes.

I've said I've been saying it for weeks now.

I feel silly, keeps saying it, but this is a Super Bowl caliber team that Buffalo has, and it would not surprise me at all if they're the ones hoisting the Lombardi Trophy at the end of it.

Do you think they can beat the Chiefs right now?

I mean, I just I just got to go back to this Mahomes comparison right here with Josh Allen, because I e Yeah, I can.

The quarterback talking about talent and I'm talking about how he's playing this year.

If you turn on the tape and you like, let's just pretend that that was a Kansas City Chiefs uniforms.

You wouldn't even know the difference between Stefon Diggs and Josh Allen.

The level of play is so high, and I think like last night, how many touchdowns?

We're talking about 359 yards passing, two touchdowns, no interceptions.

Oh yeah, I ran for two more touchdowns like they're just toying with people.

I see the arm strength and I see the ability and you're saying as Hatton T shirt season, I agree.

But the Hatton t shirt that they won last night, says a F C East.

And there's two other sets that they have to get that Patrick Mahomes already has.

I think there's still a level that Josh Allen has to show me because for all the quarterbacks that I've seen that have done well in regular seasons, and still you get come playoff time in an A F C championship game or in a Super Bowl, you're down by 10 or you're down by 14.

Does he have that type of mentality that still bring you back like Patrick Mahomes does?

That guy has ice in his veins in Patrick Mahomes.

Maybe he's got to say straight to me, is the best quarterback in the game right now, But I'm telling you, for the last month, it really, since this guy's looked healthy.

When I watched Josh Allen play, he looks every bit as good as Patrick Mahomes.

And that's not the slight Patrick Mahomes.

I would buy a ticket, tow, watch both of those guys play because that's how good it is, and he's doing it with wide receivers that we don't talk about enough.

They all have number's in the teens that we can't even give him an eighties number, but they are just a good as they may be better than other day one homes in the playoffs.

It's like he lived there and he belonged there.

And I just know Josh Allen and his only playoff experience.

So when the Bills, when they lost to the Texans, I think it was So I'm just saying, I think this is a different Josh Allen I want to see on top of that.

This year, their defense hasn't played their best football.

Like I think, the defense, their best football is in front of them for Buffalo.

And therefore, like I mean, what else you gonna pick about?

What have we been saying all year about the Buffalo Bills and Josh Allen getting acquiring a guy like Stefon Diggs, his confidence being ableto have confidence.

When you there's two plays that stood out to me yesterday.

We talk about each week about quarterbacks, been able to steal yards and get yards with their legs.

It was like a 2020 something yard that he was able to score against the Denver Broncos and back up when it was like first and go from, like the 32 25 yard line when he strayed it.

That cover two defense for the different Broncos.

You're talking about making it look easy.

We all see the Kansas City Chiefs and how they make it look easy with the weapons that Josh Allen has and the confidence that step on digs and Cole Beasley give this young man.

This offense is up there with the Kansas City Chiefs.

They just don't have the big names that the chief, you know, it's funny if we're starting, if you're starting from scratch right now, and you could draft any quarterback you want, so lead your franchise.

You probably take Pat Mahomes first, and you probably take Josh Allen second.

And when I said it all, really well, look now, Brian Devil, you mentioned the job that he's done.

All the draft experts were saying, Oh, this guy's raw.

And Brian Day Ball took this guy fundamentally.

Nobody has been better than the red zone and on third down over his career really than this guy.

And, Matt, your point about this defense.

It's actually starting to play like it has.

Like we're accustomed to seeing the Bills defense play.

And therefore, I think they are the biggest threat, um, to Kansas City in the A f.
