‘“Coach [Brain] Daboll, he’s been in the playoffs many times so just kind of relying on what he has to say,” Allen said. “Trusting what he’s telling us, trying to be as prepared as possible, like I said, watching as much film as we can.

That’s really what it comes down to and now we’re facing a really good team, so we got to be on, we got bring our ‘A’ game.”’
