Bills QB Josh Allen shows admiration for Chiefs’ Patrick Mahomes ahead of new NFL season
Josh Allen and Patrick Mahomes are arguably the two best quarterbacks in the league. Both of them have the utmost respect for each other as we have seen them battling out in some of the best games of all time in the past few years.
After his Super Bowl win last season, Mahomes became the undisputed best quarterback in the league, and Allen also agrees to it. The Bills quarterback believes unless someone else ends up winning the Super Bowl, Mahomes will remain the best at his position.
Here's what Josh Allen said:
"Until I, Joe, or anybody else wins a Super Bowl, I think Pat is the clear number one right now. He's been playing at a high level for so long and has the championship rings to prove it."
Last season, Patrick Mahomes won the second MVP award of his career as well as the second Super Bowl and the second Super Bowl MVP of his career. He finished the season with a passer rating of 105.2 while throwing for 5,250 yards, 41 touchdowns, and 12 interceptions in 17 games in 2022.
In comparison, Allen who played with a bad elbow for the latter half of the season, finished with a passer rating of 96.6 with 4,283 yards, 35 touchdowns, and 14 interceptions in 16 games. The Buffalo Bills quarterback is likely to provide better production in the upcoming NFL season.

Allen and the Bills were defeated by the Cincinnati Bengals in the AFC Divisional Round last season, and it was a disappointing season for them. They were the preseason favorites to win the Super Bowl, but injuries to key players derailed their season.
The Buffalo Bills will be motivated for next season, and we could see them making a statement to show that they are still an elite team. The Bills are currently +850 to win the Super Bowl next season, while Allen is +800 to win the MVP award.
