The Buffalo Bills managed a stirring 27-24 win over the Jacksonville Jaguars in the wild-card round of the playoffs, and of course, Josh Allen played a starring role.

But Josh wasn't as healthy as he could be.

He entered the blue medical tent twice in the first half, and on his touchdown run, Allen appeared to have his knee twisted among the pile of bodies that lay on the ground.

That made Bills fans nervous that something potentially could be hindering No. 17.

But speaking post-game, Allen allayed the fears of Bills Mafia.

"Yeah, it was more of a precautionary thing," Allen said. "Just got rolled up on and they wanted to take a quick look, but we're all good."

Bills advance to divisional round

The Bills snapped a three-decade streak of no road playoff wins, and for Allen and Buffalo, to make the Super Bowl, they will likely need to win a few more road games, unless results seriously go their way.

But nevertheless, with Allen in this sort of form and being able to take down the Jaguars, Buffalo will fancy its chances against anyone in football.

Plus, with no Patrick Mahomes, Allen's kryptonite isn't in the tournament either, so that helps.

What also helps is having a fully fit Josh Allen, who, going by his comments, will be just fine for next week.
