Pittsburgh Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin recently raved about Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen whom he is set to face for Week 14 proceedings. Rightfully so, the former Wyoming standout has been on a tear lately and is continuing on his breakout campaign for the Bills this season.

“Whew, man, he’s a big problem,” the tactician said via The Mike Tomlin Show. “He’s a problem with his ability to throw. He’s a problem with his ability to scramble and extend plays with his legs.”

“He’s also a problem in terms of what they’re willing to do in terms of utilizing that mobility in terms of some designed QB runs. He’s their second leading rusher with over 300 yards rushing on the season. So the schematics and his abilities create a lethal tandem that we have to contend with.”

Josh Allen has already showcased his ability to become a dual-threat playmaker ever since he entered the NFL back in 2018. He has firmly established his position as one of the league's best quarterbacks with impressive tallies of 3,403 passing yards coupled with 322 rushing yards through Week 13 of the 2020 season.

His streaking performance has already eased him in this season's MVP conversation along with the likes of Patrick Mahomes and Russell Wilson, among others. Allen's improved play on the field has also benefited the whole team as the Bills are currently holding a 9-3 record and are set to dethrone the New England Patriots who previously ruled the AFC East for 11-straight years as divisional champions.

Their quest for their 10th win of the season won't come easy as they are slated to lock horns with the Steelers who are dominating with an 11-1 record of their own.

Despite the high praises, Mike Tomlin will certainly switch to his competitive side as his team will aim to rebound from their first loss and get back to their winning ways heading to the latter stages of the season.
