Josh Allen, with under 30 seconds left in the half, runs for a meaningless 12-yard gain and fumbles and gives up a field goal in a playoff game to go behind two scores against Denver. Until he quits doing that, you can't rank him as the top quarterback. That is one of the worst plays I've ever seen. Cost them the game.

Allen's costly playoff fumble raises questions about decision-making at elite level.

A veteran coach cited a critical playoff decision against Denver where Allen ran for a meaningless 12-yard gain with under 30 seconds left in the half, fumbled, and gave up a field goal that put the team behind two scores. The coach called it one of the worst plays he'd ever seen and said it cost them the game, arguing that until Allen stops making such decisions, he cannot be ranked as the top quarterback.
