Watch: Bills QB Josh Allen's precise pass sets up TD vs. Lions

Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen displayed impressive touch on their opening drive in Sunday's road game against the Detroit Lions. 

On a 2nd-and-5 at Buffalo's 32-yard line, Allen completed a 24-yard pass to running back Ty Johnson. Buffalo would then march down to Detroit's one-yard line, where Allen plunged in for a touchdown on a QB sneak.

Allen is one of the league's most talented passers, but he's been even more precise this season. 

Through his first 13 starts, Allen completed 64.1% of his passes, the third-highest figure of his career. He also had 3,033 yards passing, 23 TD passes and five interceptions. 

Allen's elite play is one reason he could win his first MVP, and the Bills are in the thick of the Super Bowl hunt. 

As of Sunday, ESPN's Football Power Index gives Buffalo the second-best chance to win Super Bowl LIX (13.5%). The Bills have never won a Super Bowl and haven't made one since Super Bowl XVIII.
