Jordan Rodgers defends Josh Allen after Bills playoff losses
Summary

Jordan Rodgers stated on Thursday that Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen has performed at a level sufficient to secure a Super Bowl victory. During an appearance on ESPN’s Get Up, Rodgers argued that public scrutiny regarding the team's postseason struggles is misdirected. He noted that in the last six playoff appearances, Allen recorded 14 touchdowns and one interception with a QBR of 88. Rodgers asserted that the Buffalo defense is responsible for recent postseason losses, citing three consecutive games lost by three points or fewer.

As Allen enters his ninth NFL season, debate persists among analysts regarding his legacy and whether he possesses the necessary capability to lead the team to a championship title.
