Buffalo Bills' quarterback Josh Allen is in the midst of a remarkable stretch.

Leading the Bills to a seventh-straight double-digit win total, Allen finished as an MVP finalist for the fifth time in the last six seasons.

Although he came up just shy of an unprecedented sixth consecutive 40-touchdown campaign, Allen has more total touchdowns than any NFL player since 2020.

Even with four turnovers in the Bills' overtime playoff loss to the Denver Broncos, Allen and the offense managed 30 points on the road against an elite defense. Accounting for 349 yards and throwing three touchdown passes, the quarterback certainly did enough to put his team in position for a win.

"I'm fired up to have an opportunity to work with Josh, really am," said Carmichael. "All of a sudden, he can make a great play out of a play that is defended pretty well. He can tuck the ball and run. There's just so much about his game that's to be excited about."
