Josh Allen Shows Respect for Lamar Jackson; What the Bills Said After Eliminating Ravens

Bills Head Coach Sean McDermott

“Two great teams going up against each other. Two great quarterbacks going up against each other as well. … Give credit to the Ravens. They’re well coached. John [Harbaugh] does a great job, he and his staff. Lamar and what he does for the offense, special teams, they’re talented, and then the same thing on the defensive side. They did a great job I thought making it hard on us tonight, especially in the second half on offense. We were able to get some turnovers, get some key takeaways that were important.”

On his decision to kick the field goal to go up by eight in the final minutes:

“I considered going for it. Maybe not at three yards there, had it at a long two, short three. I think on the scoreboard it was showing three. If we got it to one, I was going to go for it, two, I had to make a decision, and then when it ended up being a long two or a short three, certainly going up eight, I felt like that was the right thing to do there.”

On Derrick Henry, who finished with 84 rushing yards:

“Our guys heard it all week long. We’re not big enough. We’re not strong enough. We’re not talented enough. Whatever it is, they heard it. We did, I think in the first half, a pretty darn good job. The second half, he got rolling a little bit. He’s going to pop some runs and when he gets that momentum going, he’s hard to stop. But even there, I think we could have done things better fundamentally.”
