After a somewhat lackluster start to the 2023 NFL season, the Buffalo Bills managed to turn things around in the latter half, securing the No. 2 seed in the AFC.

Despite being initially considered title contenders, the Bills’ mediocre performance in the first few months raised doubts about their playoff prospects. However, a pivotal change in offensive coordinators sparked a notable transformation, establishing the Bills as genuine contenders for a postseason run.

Wild Card weekend sees the Buffalo Bills facing the Pittsburgh Steelers at home, and both teams may encounter challenges due to weather conditions.

Despite facing adversity earlier in the season, the Bills are heavily favored in this matchup, thanks to their well-rounded talent on both offense and defense.

As the regular season concluded, Josh Allen demonstrated exceptional performance, but according to Joy Taylor on Speak, he is under considerable pressure to secure a victory this weekend. Taylor argues, “To me, it’s Josh Allen. You put yourself in this position to go into full playoff mode for the last six games of the season. You did exceptionally well, showcased great form, and we perceive you’re back at the top, playing at a high level. Losing to the Steelers is not an option.”

While players like Dak Prescott and Lamar Jackson also feel the pressure to secure victories, Josh Allen has the additional challenge of proving himself at the highest echelons. Throughout his career, Allen has been susceptible to turnovers, and he is yet to make an appearance in the Super Bowl. Therefore, it remains intriguing to observe his performance this time.
