Published 01/20/2021, 11:32 AM EST

Josh Allen and the Buffalo Bills are in the AFC Championship final after a convincing display in their 2 playoff games in 2021. But reigning Super Bowl winners, Kansas City Chiefs, await them on Sunday.

Of course, the home team is still sweating on the fitness of superstar QB Patrick Mahomes, who suffered a concussion over the weekend.

Regardless, the 24-year-old Allen has proven, on multiple occasions, that he is more than capable of going head-to-head against the best defensive teams in the league.

He has thrown for 4,500+ yards with 37 passing TDs against 10 interceptions in the regular season. His offensive partnership with WR Stefon Diggs has worked wonders for the Bills in 2020. But Andy Reid’s defense will be hard to crack.

“It’s definitely what you should do. It is definitely how you can prove me wrong…that’s definitely what you should do though, Buffalo Bills, I see no way it blows up in your face.

“And this is the ultimate chance you have to show that the best quarterback in the AFC actually lives in Buffalo, not Kansas City.

“So yeah, completely different game plan. I think it’ll work out brilliantly and I think it’s what they should do,” Wright said on the show.

Allen has made his way back into the NFL MVP race, currently led by Aaron Rodgers and Patrick Mahomes. Allen has thrown for 530 yards with 3 passing touchdowns in 2 post-season games this year.
