It’s no secret to the NFL anymore: Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen is very good.
Ahead of their visit to Buffalo, the New England Patriots (8-4) are well aware of it, too.
New England currently leads the AFC East, not Buffalo. But Allen and the Bills (7-4) topped the Patriots twice last season.
There will be no overlooking Allen in the slightest on Monday Night Football this week from the visitors.
Patriots linebacker Jerod Mayo said it’s going to have to be a team effort against the QB.
“Anytime you have a big, strong fast guy that can throw, it’s going to take all 11 guys on the field to keep him on the pocket,” Mayo said via video conference.
Future Hall of Famer in coach Bill Belichick took it even further. He gave a full diagnosis on Allen’s growth throughout his career.
“His improvement has just been tremendous,” Belichick said.
For more from Belichick, here’s a clip of his press conference this week via NESN:
