Josh Allen: You knock enough at the door, it's going to open at some point
Buffalo's postseason loss to Denver was notable and consequential in that it resulted in the firing of former head coach Sean McDermott.
It was also a game in which quarterback Josh Allen committed four turnovers, including an inexplicable fumble with seconds remaining in the first half that allowed the Broncos to take a 10-point lead at halftime.
While the Bills have moved forward with Joe Brady as head coach, Kevin Clark of ESPN asked Allen in a joint interview with Brady how he processed his latest postseason loss in the divisional round.
After starting his answer in jest with, “Next question,” Allen talked about how the Bills have to continue persevering.
“I mean, definitely we’ve watched it, we’ve put it in the past, we’ve learned from it,” Allen said. “We’ve been in the playoffs a lot of times in the last however many years I’ve been here now. And just continuing to find ways to learn from it.
“It’s a hard pill to swallow sometimes because we haven’t gotten it done. But you knock enough at the door, it’s going to open at some point. That’s what we have to keep doing, is keep knocking on that door and giving ourselves chances to be in that situation again.”
The Bills have lost in the divisional round in four of the last five seasons. They’ve also lost twice in the conference championship to the Chiefs since 2020.
Ravens Reportedly Extend Star Receiver Zay Flowers On $140 Million Deal
Lamar Jackson's No. 1 wide receiver is in the Chesapeake Bay Area to stay. The Baltimore Ravens announced on Tuesday morning that they signed wide receiver and two-time Pro Bowler Zay Flowers to an extension. The contract is a four-year, $140 million deal that includes $108 million guaranteed, per ESPN. Flowers' $35 million average annual value puts him in a tie with Minnesota Vikings superstar Justin Jefferson at fourth among NFL wide receivers. Flowers, whom Baltimore selected with the No. 22 pick in the 2023 NFL Draft out of Boston College, is coming off a 2025 campaign that saw him total career-highs in receptions (86) and receiving yards (1,211, which was seventh in the NFL), while tallying five receiving touchdowns and averaging 14.1 yards per receptions. The year prior (2024), Flowers totaled 74 receptions for 1,059 yards (14.3 yards per reception) and four touchdowns. Flowers has led the Ravens in both receptions and receiving yards in each of his three seasons in the sport (2023-25). Jackson, Flowers & Co. have a new offensive coordinator this season in Declan Doyle, who will be Baltimore's offensive playcaller under new head coach Jesse Minter. The Ravens are coming off an 8-9 season that saw them miss the playoffs.
Zay Flowers, Ravens agree to four-year extension
The Ravens have locked up one of their young offensive players.
Baltimore and receiver Zay Flowers have agreed to a four-year contract extension, ESPN’s Adam Schefter reports.
The deal is worth a reported $140 million, with $108 million guaranteed.
Flowers’ deal puts him just behind Drake London in terms of average new money per year at $35 million. Jaxon Smith-Njigba’s contract leads the market at $42.15 million per year.
The No. 22 overall pick of the 2023 draft, Flowers was already under contract through 2027 after Baltimore exercised his fifth-year option in the spring.
Flowers became the first wide receiver in Ravens franchise history to be selected to the Pro Bowl in 2024. He was again selected to the Pro Bowl in 2025, having caught 86 passes for 1,211 yards with five touchdowns in 17 games.
Overall, Flowers has caught 237 passes for 3,128 yards with 14 TDs in 50 games over his three seasons. He’s also registered nine receptions for 156 yards with a touchdown in two playoff games.
