The Buffalo Bills continue to stack accolades through their 3-0 start to the season, adding to the momentum as this team rolls into Baltimore for a Sunday Night Football matchup with the Ravens.

For the third straight week, a player from the Bills has brought home some weekly hardware. Coming off his monster performance, Josh Allen was named the AFC Offensive Player of the Week. Allen is starting to make winning this award look routine.

Allen is no stranger to this award. According to Buffalo Bills PR, this is the 13th time that Allen was earned the honor, extending his own franchise record. It's the most of any NFL player since Allen entered the league in 2018. For context, Allen now has three more AFC Offensive Player of the Week awards than Patrick Mahomes and Lamar Jackson, both of whom have done so 10 times.

Also according to Buffalo Bills PR, on Monday Night Football, Allen became the first quarterback in NFL history to complete 75% of his passes, throw for 4+ touchdowns, have no turnovers, take no sacks, and lead his team in rushing yards all in the same game.

Allen is capital "h" Him.

Allen has clearly taken a leap this year. Whether it's a change in weapons, a change in philosophy on offense, Allen maturing as a player, or a combination of all of the above, Allen is currently the best player in football and it isn't close. He leads the league in total touchdowns with nine, and has yet to throw an interception, seemingly growing past what has always been the biggest hurdle for people to get past when putting him in elite company.

The Bills are playing lights out football, and their superstar quarterback is leading the charge. There's no denying that this coming Sunday night will be the biggest test of the young season for the Bills as they look to keep their momentum rolling against a very tough Baltimore squad. If Allen can dominate in prime time once again, the hype will be in all-time hysterics among Bills Mafia.
