For years, the Buffalo Bills have been so close to Super Bowl contention, yet something always seems to stand in their way.
More often than not, that ‘something’ has happened to be Patrick Mahomes.
The Kansas City Chiefs star has established himself as the best quarterback in the game, and they’ve been the team to beat for most of Josh Allen’s tenure in the league.
However, former Bills safety Jordan Poyer believes Allen is still better than Mahomes.
As a matter of fact, he thinks Allen is the best quarterback in the game right now (via Around the NFL):
“Seven years out here, man,” Poyer said. “I loved every moment of it. Thank you so much for allowing me to grow as a person, as a player. Teammates, coaches, everybody, man, I loved every moment of it. Sorry we couldn’t get it done, but you’ve got the best quarterback in the league. I know that might go viral, but it’s OK. I get to see y’all twice a year. I can’t wait. You guys come down to Miami. I get to come back to Orchard Park one more time.”
Poyer spent the past seven years with the Bills before joining the AFC East Division rival Miami Dolphins this offseason.
However, he still joined his former teammates over the weekend to make an appearance at Micah Hyde’s annual charity softball game in Buffalo.
Allen has drawn plenty of criticism for forcing things on offense and being careless with the football at times.
Nonetheless, he’s one of the best, strongest, and most accurate passers in the game, not to mention a wreaking ball who’s almost impossible to tackle in the open field.
And while some might not feel the same way as Poyer, he’s most definitely a top-five quarterback in this game; he just needs the Chiefs to lose to somebody else in the playoffs.
