Josh Allen Earns ‘LFG Award’ from Tom Brady After Electrifying Week 8 Win

Following the Buffalo Bills’ thrilling Week 8 victory over the Seattle Seahawks, quarterback Josh Allen received high praise from none other than NFL icon Tom Brady. Although Allen holds a 0-4 record in their direct matchups, he has long admired Brady, viewing him as a mentor and friend. This mutual respect was on full display as Brady, now a lead commentator for FOX Sports, awarded Allen the “LFG Player of the Game” award for his standout performance.

Allen’s Game-Changing Performance

In his Week 8 showing, Allen completed 71% of his passes, amassed 283 passing yards, and threw two touchdowns, with only one turnover. His precision led the Bills’ offense to 445 total yards, marking their fifth 30-point game of the season. After receiving the award, Allen discussed with Brady the impactful play-calling of offensive coordinator Joe Brady, the enthusiastic Bills fan presence in Seattle, and expressed his admiration for Brady’s guidance both on and off the field.

An Impressive 2024 Season

Allen’s season stats speak volumes, with a 64% completion rate, 1,766 passing yards, 14 touchdowns, and just one turnover in the first eight games. With a Week 14 showdown against the Los Angeles Rams set to air on FOX, Allen has a prime opportunity to continue his stellar season and add to his growing list of accolades.

A Promising Campaign for Allen and the Bills

This latest recognition from Brady is not only a testament to Allen’s performance but highlights his evolution as one of the league’s most exciting quarterbacks. As the Bills look ahead, Allen’s leadership and skill are shaping a season full of promise.
