‘Last fall, Reason got in touch with local artist Nestor Ortiz, who has made his mark around Canandaigua with his works. Just in time for the Bills’ current playoff run, Ortiz completed a mural of Allen leaping in the air from the familiar Buffalo team logo on one wall and an homage to Bills Mafia, the super-intense Bills fan club, on the other.’

Mike Lupica: Welcome to the main event! Lamar Jackson vs. Josh Allen is the matchup of the season
‘The two of them have been the stars of this NFL season. Neither one of them has ever been better than they were across 17 regular season games and through their first postseason games. In so many ways, they are as physically talented as any of the great quarterbacks of the past. Allen plays like a young John Elway, just even bigger, running like a fast tight end when he pulls the ball down, and with all the arm strength in the world.’
'Battle of the MVPs': Lamar Jackson vs. Josh Allen playoff clash pits elite QBs against each other
‘“Battle of two heavyweights, this is what you want. This is why the NFL is the greatest league in the world,” Bills edge rusher Von Miller, the MVP of Super Bowl 50 with the Denver Broncos, said this week, “because you got matchups like this and you got quarterbacks like this going against each other.”’
Bills vs. Ravens where to watch: NFL kickoff time, TV, live stream, odds, pick for AFC playoff game
‘Josh Allen has done his best Superman impression for the Bills, helping Buffalo to a 13-4 finish and wild-card rout of the Denver Broncos despite a remade and oft-shuffled group of skill weapons. Lamar Jackson, meanwhile, may well be on his way to a third career MVP award after airing it out for a career-high 41 touchdowns, while also starring on the ground as the electric running mate to Derrick Henry’
Josh Allen contract rumors: Bills QB on track for new deal after latest MVP-caliber campaign
‘Josh Allen will try to elevate his legacy as the Buffalo Bills’ quarterback on Sunday, when the MVP candidate looks to advance to his first AFC championship game in four years. Regardless of how he fares against the Baltimore Ravens, the signal-caller could soon cash in with a new contract, according to NFL Media.’
Bills vs. Ravens prediction: Lamar Jackson outlasts Josh Allen in divisional bout, returns to AFC title game
‘Ravens 27, Bills 24.’
Bills vs. Ravens position-by-position breakdown: Which team has the edge in 2025 AFC divisional-round game?
‘Folks, there is a reason that the MVP race this year is so close. Josh Allen and Lamar Jackson were the two best players in the NFL this season. I’m not sure anyone else was all that close. They each then played terrific games in the first week of the playoffs. They have remarkably similar skill sets for players who are built so differently — they can absolutely annihilate you from the pocket when well protected, and they will destroy your defense and stick a dagger in your heart if they “have to” create outside of structure. They are the two best running quarterbacks in the league, but they do their damage in entirely different ways. If you think there is a clear advantage on either side of the ball here, I think you’re crazy.’
Josh Allen's Wild Touchdown Recreated in Epic Snow Sculpture Before Bills-Ravens Game
‘Before the Bills’ divisional round game against the Baltimore Ravens, upstate New York caricature artist Eric Jones found the perfect way to recreate Allen’s cool touchdown: with a gigantic snow sculpture. And not just any snow sculpture, but one that features Allen donning a Superman cape.’
Bills fans unhappy offensive coordinator Joe Brady is taking head coach interviews days before playoff game vs. Ravens
‘Offensive coordinator Joe Brady had several head coaching interviews this week, including the New Orleans Saints and Chicago Bears. And while fans understand that Brady is a sought after name, the fact that he has to take interviews at this time while the team is chasing a Super Bowl has left many frustrated.’
Sean McDermott's worst clock management mistakes: A timeline of Bills coach's big game bad decisions
‘McDermott has built a reputation for mismanaging the clock, costing his team wins in crucial situations. It’s not something you want to be known for, and it has become a big reason why the Bills can’t seem to get over the playoff hump, even with a talented quarterback like Josh Allen leading the offense.’
Bills get major advantage over Ravens with latest NFL injury news
‘Per Tom Pelissero, the Ravens are listing wide receiver Zay Flowers as doubtful to play in the game Sunday. Flowers injured his knee in the final week of the regular season against the Cleveland Browns and didn’t play in the team’s wild card win over the Pittsburgh Steelers.’
Heavy snow will favor Bills over Ravens because of Josh Allen's superhuman plays in inclement weather
‘Josh Allen, the Bills QB, has a track record of excelling in freezing conditions, with a 9-1 record in games at or below 32°F. His dual-threat ability to both pass and run makes him particularly dangerous in these environments. Notably, in a snowy game against the 49ers last month, Allen became the first quarterback in NFL history to record passing, rushing, and receiving touchdowns all in the same game.’
Lamar Jackson vs. Josh Allen: Which QB is under more pressure to win Super Bowl in 2025 NFL playoffs?
‘If the Ravens lose at Buffalo, it would likely be because of their defense breaking down against Allen and his weapons. If the Bills lose at home to Baltimore, it would be more because Allen didn’t execute. That happened on the road against the Ravens in Week 4, with Jackson outplaying Allen by a wide margin.’
Tyler Bass missed extra points: Inside the Bills kicker's NFL-worst EPA struggles in 2024
‘Shorter kicks have proven to be more of a challenge than anything for Bass, who missed five extra-point attempts this season — as many as he missed over his first four NFL seasons combined.’
