ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. — Following a dominant 2-0 start to the 2026 campaign with 77 total points against Houston and Detroit, the Buffalo Bills have drawn national attention. During an appearance on CBS Sports’ The NFL Today, retired Super Bowl champion quarterback Russell Wilson predicted that Josh Allen will lead Buffalo back to the Super Bowl.
Breaking the Drought and MVP Pace
Buffalo hasn’t reached the Super Bowl since their four consecutive appearances from 1991 to 1994. Wilson expressed confidence that the team under head coach Joe Brady can overcome this history, noting Allen’s stellar play following a victory over the Detroit Lions at Highmark Stadium.
Allen has opened the season accounting for nine total touchdowns in two games, putting him on a statistical pace comparable to historic MVP seasons by Peyton Manning (2013) and Patrick Mahomes (2018).

Standout Performances
- Dalton Kincaid: The tight end has shown high aerial efficiency not seen at the position in decades.
- Gregory Rousseau: The edge rusher recorded 16 pressures and 4.0 sacks in two weeks, becoming the first Bills player since Bruce Smith in 1996 to open a season with consecutive multi-sack games.
The team’s trajectory points toward Super Bowl LXI at SoFi Stadium on February 14, 2027, if they maintain their current form.
