Bills Mailbag: How much of a concern should the team’s record in close games be?
‘In his career, Allen has led eight fourth-quarter comebacks and 11 game-winning drives. That includes three in the 2020 season, at Miami and at home against the Rams and Patriots. So, Allen has shown he can do it. The Bills’ recent struggles in close games dates back to the “Hail Murray” play against the Cardinals in 2020, when Arizona won on a last-play deep ball from Kyler Murray to DeAndre Hopkins, who made a miraculous catch despite being surrounded by three Bills defenders. If you remember that game, however, Allen led the Bills to the go-ahead points before the defense gave up the touchdown. More of my thoughts on the Bills’ record in close games is shared in the next question. As for the No. 1 seed, that absolutely should be the Bills’ goal this year. The team is 3-0 at home in the playoffs and 0-4 on the road. That’s a significant sample size.’
