The Californian sweetheart of the Bills Mafia, Josh Allen suffered yet another heartbreak as the Bills went down fighting to the Kansas City Chiefs in the decisive match. With the loss, the Bills achieved a unique feat in NFL history. The Bills have made the playoffs and won a postseason game for five straight years, yet never reached the Super Bowl during that period.

Josh Allen’s playoff struggles continued on Sunday despite a valiant effort. The 28-year-old quarterback completed 64.7% of his passes for 237 yards and two touchdowns, but the Bills ultimately fell to the Chiefs. This marks their fourth consecutive playoff loss to Kansas City since 2020, a streak that includes two Divisional Round defeats and two heartbreaking losses in the AFC Championship game.

The Bills QB had no whines about the loss. In the post-game interaction with the reporters, Allen praised the Kansas City Chiefs, even predicting a potential championship for what he called the greatest team ever assembled, a few days ago.

It’s not fun. But to be the champs, you got to beat the champs and we didn’t do it tonight.

A somber Josh Allen told the media

The Buffalo Bills’ 78 wins over the past six seasons, including playoffs, mark the most by any team in NFL history during a six-season span without a Super Bowl appearance. Additionally, Josh Allen’s seven playoff victories are the most by any quarterback who has yet to reach a Super Bowl.

In their final drive, the Bills came up short as the Kansas City Chiefs applied heavy pressure on a fourth-and-5 play from Buffalo’s 47-yard line with two minutes remaining. Under pressure, Allen scrambled and launched a pass to tight end Dalton Kincaid, who was unable to secure what would have been a challenging catch.

He praised his team and their efforts the whole season.

“Showing up each and every day working as hard as they can. I love these guys.”

Buffalo Bills head coach also Sean McDermott addressed the media, reflecting on falling short against the Chiefs in the playoffs once again. He expressed pride in the team’s performance throughout the season, as well as the effort they displayed both during the game and over the year.

Not the results we were looking for, I’m so proud of the guys, they battle and they gave everything they had, just came a little bit short against a really good football team. Overall the guys battle, it could have gone either way and we had some plays where we could have converted on fourth down but it didn’t worked out that way.

Sean McDermott said

The Bills will now head into the offseason with a clear goal ahead of him. The team needs to build a solid support system around Allen if they need to go the long way and finally win their first Bowl.
