"The first arrival after every Buffalo Bills game is quarterback Josh Allen, quick to give his postgame press conference in full uniform as soon as the team breakdown in the locker room ends and things begin to settle. Even after the toughest and most emotional of losses. This time, his arrival was not speedy. A couple minutes before, a public relations staff member came out and awaited his arrival. And then eventually, about 16 minutes after the game to a close, in walked Allen."
"Looking down, his face was visibly red as he sniffled and fidgeted, hitting his fingers against the wooden lectern. Tears were in his eyes and on his face. He was emotional throughout his press conference. The reigning MVP was asked how hard it was to get to the AFC Divisional Round of the playoffs and have this happen again. "It's extremely difficult," Allen said with his voice choked up. "I feel like I, feel like I let, let my teammates down tonight.""
Josh Allen arrived late to the postgame press conference, visibly emotional, tearful and fidgeting, hitting his fingers against the lectern. He said he felt he let his teammates down after the Buffalo Bills lost in overtime to the Denver Broncos, 33-30. The defeat eliminated Buffalo in the AFC Divisional Round for the fourth time in five seasons. Teammates defended Allen, with right tackle Spencer Brown saying the team would not win a football game without him. The loss extended Buffalo's long Super Bowl absence and the franchise record for most wins in a seven-season span without a Super Bowl appearance, including playoffs (91). The game featured just missed opportunities throughout.
