A rare nearly flawless performance by Josh Allen coupled with dignified and disciplined football was more than enough for the Bills on Monday Night. The Bills not only showed that they most certainly belong in the discussion for the AFC, but surely won the hearts of anyone they just met around the country. Here are a few takeaways from the game.
CAN YOU DIGG IT
Stefon Diggs has once again demonstrated why Brandon Beane whisked him away secretly to Tempo last winter. (Still wonder if that really happened?) He and Josh have danced together this season at a level that we haven’t seen since Fitzy and Stevie, and this makes that look JV at best. The dazzling display of Dance Dance Revolution route running is something to behold, and though he is slight he handles contact like a true warrior.
AJ and Milano Work
Buffalo’s love affair with Matt (Not Mike Theo Riddick) Milano was missed, as he flew around the field alongside AJ Klein. It wasn’t an all around dominating performance from the defense, but overall what we are doing is effective. The defense is rope a doping in a controlled chaos that is downright impressive. For every quick Nick Mullens drive to impress, there were defensive stalemates to match. Micah Hyde stuffing the goal line will never be forgotten.
The Bills Have Made It.
2020 has brought a whole lot of confusion to the world. One bright spot has been the Buffalo Bills. With Dallas irrelevant, Brady withering, Bellicheck and Cam Newtons hair, and Pat Mahomes and the Chiefs on the verge of their heel turn- to unbeatable Pats like greatness… I think it may be time for America’s team to spend some time in Western New York. With an adorable Air Bud like Josh Allen, the Buffalo Brand of football is surely to continue to go viral globally.
Josh Allen Has Made It.
What Josh did tonight wasn’t only historic for the Bills. He became the Bills 1st player to ever throw for 3 games over 300 yards and 4 TUDS. Only Fitz and Kelly had done that 2x in a season before. He also did this.
Josh Allen (32 for 40) is the first passer in @BuffaloBills‘ history to attempt 40 or more passes in a game and complete at least 80% of them. The only other player with a performance of that kind on #MNF was Matt Ryan, who was 36 for 45 in a 2013 loss to the Jets. #BillsMafia

Pittsburgh Is Shaking in Their Boots
Not only is it good that Buffalo can take the pressure off themselves to be the one to undo Pittsburgh’s undefeated plans… Alex Smith went all Lieutenant Dan on Big Ben and the boys and took them down in the early slate. Buffalo is coming off a powerful win, and Pittsburgh is down Bud Dupree, along with possibly sidelined and recently concussed Joe Haden.
Based on how the eventual Comeback Player of the Year Alex Smith was able to throw to XFL WRs and Logan Thomas against the Big Bad Steelers, Josh is licking his chops. Of note- Terry Mclaurin was shut down- so expect our other guys to need to step up this week. Defense heal up because SF was just a preview of the physicality!
Overall it was a beautiful night to be a Buffalo Bills fan. Here’s to a great Victory Tuesday and onto next week!
If you needed any further proof that General Josh stole the show…Even Dwight Chimed in..
.@JoshAllenQB is my second favorite quarterback.
