Josh Allen has the Buffalo Bills positioned atop the AFC East, and he has continued to play with an aggressive nature on the field. While some are critical of how he plays, Allen spoke about his uncanny playing style that has captivated many of his critics.
During a conversation with Sports Illustrated's Greg Bishop, Allen explained his exhilarating and “unpredictable” play style that can sometimes cause fans of the Bills to scratch their heads. The Josh Allen Experience is truly something:
“I don’t mean that in a bad sense. But any play could have me throwing deep or checking down or running or trying to stiff-arm dudes or jumping over Anthony Barr. I play with confidence and swagger and, when I’m on the field, there’s nothing that I can’t do.” Nothing encompassing vast positive and negative outcomes. It’s just that, now, the scales have tipped.”
In his first two seasons in the NFL, Allen flashed glimpses of brilliance, showing off his rocket arm and mobility. However, while the Bills quarterback's abnormal play style would work at times, sometimes it would come back to bite him in certain moments.

Additionally, his accuracy was put into question in his first two seasons, with him completing only 56.3 percent of his passes in 2018 and 2019. But in his third campaign, Allen is completing a career-best 68.9 percent of his attempts.
At the same time, some of his aggressive plays have led to victories for the Bills instead of costing them games. Heading into Week 10, Buffalo boasts a 7-2 record and is coming off an impressive win over the Seattle Seahawks.
Besides having an opportunity to win MVP, Allen's insistent mentality at quarterback has the Bills believing they can compete for a Super Bowl.
