Josh Allen made another jaw-dropping play in the Buffalo Bills' 33-30 win over the Las Vegas Raiders, juking and sidestepping defenders before leaping into contact to flick a 12-yard touchdown pass to Keon Coleman in the third quarter.
After the game, Allen admitted he wasn't sure the play had worked. Once the ball left his hand, he was hit and spun around, so he couldn't see whether the pass was complete. With so many Bills fans filling Allegiant Stadium, he also couldn't hear whether the crowd's roar meant a touchdown or an interception. "It's so hard in these away games which feel like home games," Allen explained.
Allen's teammates noticed the unusually strong Buffalo presence in Las Vegas. Running back James Cook III, who finished with 153 scrimmage yards, said Bills fans were louder than the Raiders' supporters. "This is what Buffalo fans do," Cook said. Allen threw for 255 yards and two touchdowns, and he drew an MVP chant as a visiting player, a rare honor.
Left tackle Dion Dawkins said he tries to stay unimpressed by Allen's highlight plays, but this time he couldn't help himself. "You are Himothy," Dawkins told Allen. "We're seeing it in real time."
