00:00All right, so Bill's Lions definitely lived up to the billing. I know that the game wasn't

00:09as close really as it looked here. It was more or less a Buffalo domination, but every

00:15time the Lions got the ball, it seems like they went down and they scored two. 48-42

00:21the final in this one. Josh Allen is the MVP of the NFL, open and shut case, nothing to

00:26talk about anymore. After six touchdowns last week for this past week, 362 passing

00:33yards, 68 rushing yards. My gosh, Vinny, like he is putting on a show every week. And even

00:39at the end of the game, he had that, like, I don't know if you saw that little jump pass

00:42that they had to call back for a penalty. It seems like what they say, you know, the

00:46old days of Michael Jordan, Kobe Bryant, player, you know, Brady in the zone. This guy is in

00:51the zone right now. Yeah, Lamar Jackson tried his best with the five touchdown passes, but

00:56I think what helps Josh Allen is you're looking at the bills and like they're giving up a

01:00ton of points. They don't have a lot, right? You don't look at a lot of wide receivers

01:05lighting things up for him. It's basically him carrying the whole offense and a little

01:10bit of James Cook when he needs it. And last week, James Cook wasn't a factor at all in

01:15the running game. So he's putting his team on his back. If you want to say that's the

01:19definition of MVP along with great stats, he's got all that in his favor this particular

01:25season. Because again, the bills are a very flawed team. Otherwise, when you look beyond

01:30Josh Allen and same thing in the Lions, I mean, they have a lot of defensive issues.

01:34So these teams need to score points. That's why I think the bills kind of said, we got

01:39to play and be aggressive. And Josh Allen needs to take over from wire to wire here

01:44to have any chance. Because if our defense gets exposed to that Lions running game, we're

01:49going to be chasing and we're not going to be able to catch up. So I think that was the

01:52game plan to be aggressive. I mean, Joe Brady has been fantastic calling plays to let Josh

01:58Allen loose. I mean, very similar to Liam Cohen with the Buccaneers. I mean, these are

02:02the two best probably play callers other than Ben Johnson in this game in the NFL right

02:07now. Hottest play callers at least. So then the bills and lines are right there with all

02:13the Super Bowl contenders. But what they proved is they got to do it by scoring a ton of points

02:17because their defenses are just not good enough to hold off. This is kind of reverse of the

02:23game last week against the Rams where the bills lost. They were trying to kind of suck

02:27up that big deficit this week. It was the Lions kind of making it look a little bit

02:32better than it actually was.
