Bills vs. Bengals could be a QB battle for the ages
It feels like a crime that quarterbacks Josh Allen and Joe Burrow have yet to play each other in the NFL, but the wait is finally over in what could be the battle for the AFC's No. 1 seed in Week 17.
The quarterbacks have yet to face off, but they are very familiar with each other.
"I know Joe quite a bit. Obviously, we both train with Jordan Palmer ... I've got a lot of respect for him and his game," Allen told Kyle Brandt on "Kyle Brandt's Basement." "He's a special talent. He really is."
Sadly, we'll have to wait all weekend for matchup on Monday night, but it'll be worth the wait. Both teams rank top seven in total yards per game (Bills - 2nd, Bengals - 7th) and top six in points per game (Bills - 4th, Bengals - 6th).
The Bills and Bengals have two of the league's top players at quarterback and receiver, however, Allen doesn't necessarily believe it will be a shootout.
"We're going to have our hands full. It's a defense too that is playing lights out," Allen added.
Both teams have defeated the Chiefs this season, paving the way for the winner to have home field advantage through the playoffs.
Anything can happen, but this may not be the last time these two teams see each other either, as it might be a preview of AFC Championship game.
