The Super Bowl matchup in the Motor City did not go as the Detroit Lions coaches, players and fans, had hoped.
MVP favorite Josh Allen and Buffalo Bills offensive coordinator Joe Brady put on a clinic against the Lions as they scored 30-plus points, and then some, in their eighth consecutive games. Allen had all day to find his bevy of weapons against the depleted Lions defense. He went 23/34 passing for 362 yards and two passing touchdowns.
Everything was going Allen’s way, but luckily after a slow start, the Lions offense got going and fought back to get within 10 multiple times in the fourth quarter and even closer towards the end.
