The Buffalo Bills will play the biggest game of their season this weekend. It’s all come down to Week 18 for the Bills, who are scheduled to play the Miami Dolphins. The AFC East Division Championship is on the line, and the Bills  are playing not only for that but to get into the postseason in general. In other words, this would be a terrible time for quarterback Josh Allen to be unavailable.

However, Bills fans shouldn’t be concerned. Allen affirmed his status for Sunday night’s game against the rival Dolphins.

Reporter Joe Buscaglia posted, “QB Josh Allen when asked about his sore neck: ‘It’s good. Good to go.'”

Allen once again has put together a strong season in Buffalo. While his interceptions get a lot of the spotlight, and arguably for good reason, Allen is still playing great football. He’s thrown for 3,947 yards, a 7.3 yards/attempt, and 27 passing touchdowns. He’s also rushed for 457 yards and scored 15 rushing touchdowns.

The Bills will need all that they can get out of Allen and their stars. If they win, they win the AFC East and become the 2 seed in the conference. Should they lose, however, they might fall all the way out of the playoffs. Some scenarios have the Bills missing out on the January fun if certain other factors emerge. A high-stakes scenario is in the works.

All that’s left is to see what happens next.
