“I feel like we’ve grown quite a bit since that game,” QB Josh Allen said. “Going back and looking at it, obviously it wasn’t our best effort. It felt like we didn’t play our best football. But they’ve got a really good team, too. They’re playing this week for a reason… They got a lot of studs over there , led by Lamar, of course, and it’s a tough team to play regardless.
