Josh Allen saved the Buffalo Bills from a long week. And maybe a long offseason.
The Bills found themselves in an unexpected predicament on Saturday night. They were expected to roll over the Los Angeles Chargers, who were off an embarrassing loss to the Las Vegas Raiders that led to coach Brandon Staley getting fired, with Easton Stick replacing injured Justin Herbert at quarterback. Instead, the Chargers led late in the fourth quarter.
The Bills scratched and clawed to get back in the playoff hunt and the division race too, and then were in danger of flushing it all away against the Chargers.
