Usually, Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen isn't one to hide his emotions or hit the media with generic answers after a tough loss.
He won't do the typical coach-speak statements that others will. He'll instead let reporters see his feelings take over at the podium as he offers honest answers. Moments after another heartbreaking playoff loss to the Kansas City Chiefs, Allen shared a painfully blunt message.
To open the press conference, a fully suited-up Allen was asked for his opening thoughts on the game and if he had any words that came to mind. The quarterback took nearly 10 seconds before offering his response.
"Sucks, losing sucks," an honest and stunned Allen told reporters. "Losing to them, losing to anybody, at home. Sucks."
After a couple of way-too-short answers about specific plays, Allen was asked once again asked about his emotions, this time focused on the difference between losing at home or on the road. Once again, Allen reinforced his candid response.
"Here or there, it doesn't matter," Allen confessed. "Losing sucks, I don't know what else to say."
Although it's an understandable reaction from the Bills quarterback, it sure is a painful one to see.
Allen was shellshocked on that podium after a loss to the Chiefs in which he was once again wishing to get the ball in an overtime period that would've likely happened had Tyler Bass made his field goal.
He kept it short not because he wanted to hit the showers and go home. No, the thing is he truly didn't know what else to say.
"They were playing soft zone, checking it down that's just trying to take what the defense gives us, gotta score touchdowns, I don't think our team played bad," Allen said of the game. "We gotta make one more play and we didn't."
Where the Bills go from here isn't an easy riddle to solve. Josh Allen remains one of the few elite quarterbacks in the league and the team won the AFC East for the fourth straight year.
"I don't think it's a big change (that's needed to get over this hump)," Allen confessed. "We gotta find a way to score one more point than they do."
