The Buffalo Bills exceeded many preseason expectations this year. With the momentum they carried into the postseason, some thought this was finally the season Josh Allen would lead them to the Super Bowl.

Colin Cowherd unveils his Top 10 NFL players in the AFC Championship Game, featuring the Patrick Mahomes-Josh Allen duo, Kansas City Chiefs TE (and Taylor Swift's boyfriend) Travis Kelce and Buffalo Bills running back James Cook.

Unlike a lot of people, Buffalo Bills running back James Cook isn't blaming the officiating for his team's loss to the Kansas City Chiefs last week. Speaking on the "Kickin' It With Dee" podcast, Cook was asked how he and his team mentally handles the idea of the refs working against them. He responded by lightly rejecting the premise:

The Chiefs were driving, at the Buffalo 23, on the doorstep of possibly taking a 14-3 lead. Alas, Patrick Mahomes fumbled while pulling the ball back from running back Isiah Pacheco’s belly. Defensive lineman Ed Oliver recovered for the Bills at the Buffalo 28.

Only a fool would bet against the back-to-back Super Bowl champion Chiefs and their star signal-caller who is now 23–1 in his past 24 games.

With a trip to Super Bowl 59 on the line, Josh Allen wasn’t the Buffalo Bills most valuable player. It was running back James Cook.
