What’s At Stake?
It’s as simple as this – the Buffalo Bills are playing the reigning league MVP on primetime. The Bills have Super Bowl dreams, so games like this aren’t the end-all-be-all, but they do let everyone else know what they’re made of.
And so far, Buffalo’s handled primetime games great this year. The Bills won back-to-back primetime matchups in week 1 and week 2 over the Los Angeles Rams and Tennessee Titans respectively.
Now, Sean McDermott’s group will look to go 3-0 on national television in 2022.
Last Time Out: Bills – 24, Kansas City – 20
In a rematch of last year’s Divisional Round classic, Buffalo went into Arrowhead Stadium and upended the Chiefs by four points.
Josh Allen was spectacular, passing for 329 yards and 3 touchdowns and hurdling his team to a victory.
The Bills defense came away with a game-sealing turnover, thanks to pressure by Von Miller and the pick by Taron Johnson.
Bills Player To Watch
Josh Allen
A game on the biggest stage should feature our player to watch as none other than Josh Allen himself.
Sure, there are key matchups throughout. Stefon Diggs will draw Jaire Alexander. A Bills O-Line will have to step up with no Spencer Brown. But on Sunday Night Football, all eyes will be on number seventeen. He often delivers on primetime, and tonight should be no different.
