Of all the quarterbacks celebrating after the play-offs, Josh Allen is probably the happiest. Allen threw five touchdowns on Saturday for the Buffalo Bills to lead them to a 47-17 victory over the New England Patriots.
The Bills condemned Bill Belichick to the biggest play-off defeat of his coaching career. How Belichick must have wished Tom Brady was still a Patriot.
The Bills reached last year's AFC Championship game and retained the AFC East title this season but the manner of Saturday's win has sent a message to the rest of the NFL. They are now the bookies’ betting favourites for the championship.
Allen, 25, found Dawson Knox for two touchdowns, either side of a vital Micah Hyde interception that denied the Pats an almost certain touchdown, before Devin Singletary ran in two more as the Bills led 27-3 at half-time. After that it was a procession for the Bills.
