The Jacksonville Jaguars and Buffalo Bills are set to square off in the Wild Card Round of the 2025-26 NFL Playoffs.
Today’s key to the game: contain reigning MVP Josh Allen.
“He’s extremely impressive,” coach Liam Coen said Monday. “I remember we played him in 2020 and we played him again in 2022, and he did some really good things against us like stiff-arming defenders, throwing the ball down the field a million miles. And I’ve got a lot of respect for their coaching staff. I know some of the guys on the offensive staff specifically and to watch him play, the competitor. So many playoff games, division, whatever it is, big games, he typically shows up and makes critical plays at critical moments and that’s why he’s been an MVP candidate for a long time.”
“He’s great player,” defensive coordinator Anthony Campanile said Thursday. “When I was in Miami for a bunch of years, we would play him at least twice a year. So, one season there, we played three times but he’s a phenomenal player. Just every facet of what he does is elite. So he’s elite in the pocket, elite thrower, hard to tackle, obviously, in his career but a smart guy, too. Kind of runs the show up there as you know, he gets them into great plays. I think he’s got all the skill sets of an elite player in this league at that position. And he makes you stay up late at night to try and get it right; that’s for sure.”
