Broncos safety Justin Simmons said it best. If Denver truly wants to make a postseason push, it has to take care of business against teams like the Buffalo Bills.

If the Broncos want to stop the Bills on Monday Night Football, they will have to contain quarterback Josh Allen, and that’s no easy task.

“(Allen) is extremely difficult to game plan against,” Simmons said. “He’s so talented with his arm that he can make all the throws.”

Allen has been one of the best quarterbacks in the league for the past five seasons. He and Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes are known for making plays that defy logic.

This season, Allen has continued that narrative. He is second in touchdown passes (18) and completion percentage (71.3%).

“(Allen) has been pretty amazing. When you see him, he’s big, I mean, holy cow,” head coach Sean Payton said. “He’s impressive and he’s a sharp guy. He’s certainly earned the respect in this league and what he’s accomplished so early in his career.”

The Broncos know they will have their hands full with Allen’s arm and the talented weapons on Buffalo’s offense. But one of Denver’s biggest concerns is what Allen can do with his legs. This season, Allen has rushed for 233 yards, six touchdowns and averages 5.3 yards per carry.

Allen also has eight rushes for 10-plus yards, according to Pro Football Focus.

“Both (Allen and Mahomes) have that second act. What I mean is that ability to make you defend, instead of for three seconds, six or seven seconds,” Payton said. “The one thing when he’s healthy, besides the RPOs, there are some quarterback runs that gap you one short. So that becomes challenging.”

If there’s one weakness the Broncos could exploit, it’s Allen’s penchant for turning the ball over.

The Wyoming product’s nine interceptions this season are tied with three other QBs (Las Vegas’ Jimmy Garoppolo, New England’s Mac Jones and Washington’s Sam Howell) for most in the league. He’s also lost two fumbles, giving him the most turnovers (11) overall of any player in the NFL.
