The Buffalo Bills and Detroit Lions will face off in Week 15 of the NFL, a matchup between two teams with serious Super Bowl aspirations. Josh Allen, one of the leagueās best players and an MVP candidate, knows he will be a tough challenge for Dan Campbell and his squad.
The Lions know they will face one of their toughest opponents heading into the final stretch of the regular season. Regarding this, HC Campbell made his feelings clear about facing one of the most influential quarterbacks in the league today.
āHe is challenging, and I havenāt had a chance to truly deep dive them yet, but I do know this: heās taken care of the football,ā Detroit head man Dan Campbell said of Allen. āHeās taking the plays that are there, and once he progresses, if itās not (there), then he uses his legs. So, I feel a more patient player out of him, and because of that, heās playing at a very high level. And, that makes him even more dangerous.ā
Additionally, Campbell highlighted Allenās key qualities: āHeās got a big-time arm, heās accurate, he can read defenses, and then heās got the physical ability to take off and run. And, he can run over people, he can run around you, he can get on the perimeter. So, yeah, this is going to be a huge task for us. This is not going to be easy.ā
