The Buffalo Bills were contenders in 2025, are expected to be contenders in 2026, and may have one glaring reason for no one to sleep on them next season.
Bleacher Report labeled Josh Allen still being in his prime as an MVP-caliber player as the reason to not overlook the Bills in 2026.
“Josh Allen has been and will remain one of the league's most gifted quarterbacks,” Kay said. “He's proven capable of willing the Buffalo Bills to victory and constantly keeps the team in the Super Bowl hunt despite some suspect supporting casts in recent years. … Allen's combination of arm talent, mobility and improvisation will keep the Bills in the championship conversation and the team to beat in the AFC.“
Despite finishing third in the MVP race last season,
Allen looked like he had even more within him to produce on the field, as he recorded his fewest passing yards since 2019 with 3,668. That’s a credit to his prowess as a superstar quarterback, as he did complete a career-high 69.3 percent of his passes on the year.
With strong numbers to show for, and having led the Bills to a 12-5 record last season, Allen is still in his prime, and with DJ Moore in town to be his new No. 1 receiver, the former AP MVP quarterback figures to give Buffalo a chance to win the Super Bowl next season.
