Josh Allen’s grandmother died night before Seattle game [Update] The Patricia Allen Wing at Oshei is now open!

[jkeerie]

After every TD Josh looked uo to heaven and pointed today.  I was wondering why.  Now I know.  RIP Grandma...in the arms of the angels.

[Playoffs?]

Sad for Josh... but he honored her appropriately today!  RIP

Wow—shades of Favre’s infamous Monday night outing against the Raiders IIRC, the day his dad passed, and he went off statistically. Sorry to hear, hope the Allens find peace as a family in this difficult time!

That's the 1st thing I thought of when I heard McDermott in the post game press conference.

He was stunning today. The leader we've waited for. May she rest in peace knowing her grandson is truly amazing. 

[Joe Ferguson]

That's my Joshy!

[TroutDog]

May she Rest In Peace. She’s been a matriarch of a fine young man and his family. Job well done!

[Beast]

Grandma is smiling and proud.

[machine gun kelly]

I’m sorry for you Josh.  Thanks for keeping it together as it must have been hard to do so.

[billsfan_34]

He played in control/command and put the ball where it needed to be while dealing with a loss. Total mental toughness 

[delirious]

This kid. He is amazing. Tough as nails. 

 

This reminds me similar to the Brett Favre game where he played lights out after his father's passing.

Hate to hear about the loss. Prayers for him and family. 

[BuffaloBillies]

Prolly thought... G-MA would tell me, "Go play."

So he did... for her. And kicked as*!

[The Firebaugh Kid]

I noticed him get emotional after he scored the last touchdown.  I am absolutely elated to have someone like Josh lead this team. The kid is all heart.

You have to love them while you have them.😞

Sad - prayers to his family.

 

Side story - My son might actually have her autograph.  At TC a couple years ago we had a picture of Josh w/ my son and my Dad (my avatar) from the year before.  We were sitting in the stands in the VIP area and Josh's parents, Brit, maybe a sister, and a grandmother (not sure if it was this one) were in front of us.  I dared my son to get his parents to sign the pic as a joke - and he went over and they all signed the back - including the grandmother.  My son talked with them for a little bit - very nice people.

 

Edit: - I actually found a pic on my phone
