Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen is widely regarded as one of the best players in football, and after his MVP win last season, No. 17 is back playing at a high level through two weeks.
With the Bills taking care of the Baltimore Ravens and the New York Jets, both in different ways, Allen continues to be the shining light for this Buffalo team that many feel should at least be making it to the Super Bowl.
But the Bills aren't resting on their laurels, and as it turns out, after winning MVP, Allen isn't either, and it has left offensive coordinator Joe Brady in awe.
“Josh won the MVP last year, and when he came back in the offseason, he knew that he left plays out there and there was room for him to get better and grow,” Brady said. “His approach doesn't change. He's always looking for ways to get better and find ways to improve. I don't think you become as elite of a player as he is without wanting to continue to get better.
"There's no complacency with him, and that's why our offense and our team is that same way because if you see your best player with that, it's hard to do anything else if you're a player on our football team."

Bills begin Super Bowl climb in great fashion
For the Bills, no one really cares what they do in the regular season; it is all about what happens in the playoffs.
That can be a tough place to live, but given the talent at Sean McDermott's disposal, and the state of the AFC East, that is exactly where Buffalo finds itself.
Allen could lead the Bills to a 17-0 record, but due to the past playoff failures, that would count for nothing because fans want to see what this team can do when all the chips are pushed into the middle of the table.
Still, Buffalo has gotten off to a nice start, slaying the Ravens and then blowing out the Jets to begin the year 2-0.
And right now, that's all you can ask for from a Super Bowl contender.
