Josh Allen moves on to the next stage of the playoffs after eliminating the Baltimore Ravens at home in a game that got a bit tight toward the end. With a bit of luck, the Bills were able to secure the win, and Allen wasted no time sending a show of respect to Lamar Jackson, calling him “the greatest.”
After the Bills’ 28-22 victory over the Ravens in the playoffs, Allen spoke candidly about his thoughts on Jackson, sending a friendly message: “I got so much respect and love for [Lamar]…” For him, the Ravens’ quarterback is one of “the greatest to ever step on the football field.”
For the Bills’ quarterback, Lamar Jackson is one of those special players: “The way he plays the game, he’s a true competitor, he’s a true football player…” It’s worth noting that Jackson threw more passes than Allen, finishing 18/25 with 254 yards, two touchdowns, and one interception.
Allen didn’t stop there. In his post-game comments to Tracy Wolfson for CBS, he addressed the doubters who criticized the Bills’ defense, calling them slow, small, or unable to stop the running game: “We just put our head down and work hard. I’m so proud of our defense, our offense, special teams— a complete win.”
Josh Allen Took Cautious Approach Against Ravens
The game against the Ravens wasn’t Josh Allen’s best in terms of passing yards, as he only managed 127 yards without throwing any touchdowns. However, he did contribute two rushing touchdowns on 10 attempts, helping to boost the Bills’ offense. During the Wild Card game against the Broncos, he was able to record 272 yards and two touchdowns.
