The Buffalo Bills have one of the best quarterbacks of this generation in Josh Allen. But it may be time to start talking about where he ranks in terms of all-time field generals.

In a recent article by SB Nation, they put together a survey with 13 NFL analysts asking them who the 30 best quarterbacks of all time are. And at No. 21, they have the star QB of the reigning AFC East champions.
"There is no comp because no quarterback in NFL history remotely resembles the force of nature cannon-blasting through defenses in Western New York," Go Long's Tyler Dunne said in the survey. "You'd need to go full Dr. Frankenstein, piecing together Ben Roethlisberger's size, Brett Favre's right arm with an A-level mix of brains and elusiveness and athleticism... When it's all said and done — if he can hoist a Lombardi or two — we may all discuss Allen with the very best who've ever played the position."
Allen came away with the NFL Most Valuable Player Award this past season due to his dominance in every aspect of the game.
He racked up 3,731 yards and 28 passing touchdowns, and he did so with just six interceptions. Allen was also able to dominate with his legs with 531 yards and 12 touchdowns on the ground.

With his style of play and ability to be consistently one of the best quarterbacks in the league, he is already creeping his way up the all-time ranking. But a Super Bowl win would vastly help his efforts to do that.

Chisholm rallies Yankees to 4-2 win as New York takes 2 of 3 from Orioles
NEW YORK (AP) — Jazz Chisholm Jr. hit a go-ahead, two-run double off the right-center field wall in a three-run eighth inning, leading the New York Yankees over the Baltimore Orioles 4-2 Sunday. New York won its second straight after losing seven of its previous eight games. Advertisement A day after the Orioles were held hitless for seven innings by Clarke Schmidt, Jackson Holliday singled on Will Warren's first pitch, setting up a two-run first that included Ryan O'Hearn's run-scoring single and Colton Cowser's RBI double. Orioles backup catcher Maverick Handley left after being knocked over in the second during a collision at the plate with Chisholm, who scored as his shoes came off on DJ LeMahieu's single against Dean Kremer. Ben Rice singled off Bryan Baker (3-2) leading off the eighth and Giancarlo Stanton's single put runners at the corners. Chisholm doubled and is hitting .350 (21 for 60) with 11 RBIs since returning from the injured list, raising his average to .242. New York boosted the lead when Gary Sánchez dropped shortstop Gunnar Henderson's throw on LeMahieu's grounder, allowing Chisholm to slide across the plate. Advertisement Fernando Cruz (2-3) entered with two on in the eighth and struck out the side, giving him 50 strikeouts in 30 1/3 innings. Devin Williams pitched around a two-out single in the ninth for his 10th save in 11 chances. In a game that started at 11:39 a.m. to fulfill a Major League Baseball national television contract, Warren gave up two runs and six hits in 6 1/3 innings. Key stat New York had been 1-22 when trailing after seven innings. Key moment Baker fell behind Chisholm in the count 3-0, then left a fastball over the plate. Up next Orioles: LHP Trevor Rogers (0-0, 3.12) starts Monday night's homestand opener against Texas and LHP Patrick Corbin (4-6, 3.91). Yankees: Rookie RHP Allan Winans makes his New York and season debut on Monday night at Cincinnati, which starts LHP Nick Lodolo (5-5, 3.71). ___ AP MLB: The Associated Press

Stephanie White Reveals Good News for Caitlin Clark After Roster Decision
Stephanie White Reveals Good News for Caitlin Clark After Roster Decision originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The Indiana Fever are heading in the right direction, building one of the best rosters in the WNBA under head coach Stephanie White. Advertisement In White's first year back with the organization, she's joined by Caitlin Clark, Aliyah Boston, Kelsey Mitchell, Lexie Hull and Sophie Cunningham. The Fever also had future Hall of Fame forward DeWanna Bonner rostered, but they recently released the first-year Indiana player. Bonner requested a trade and wound up being waived, leading Indiana to sign Aari McDonald, who played with Fever earlier this month on a hardship contract. After signing McDonald, White spoke with the media, sharing her thoughts on the addition of the talented guard. When explaining that she's excited to have McDonald back in the lineup, White mentioned that the move gives Indiana a chance to take some pressure off Caitlin Clark and lets the Fever star play off the ball, giving her more scoring opportunities. Advertisement "Really excited about having Aari back," White said. "Her pedigree, her ability to have the ball in her hands and make plays, not just for herself but for her teammates and the tone that she sets on the defensive end of the floor. When we get C back it gives us the ability to play C off the ball a little bit, take some pressure off of her."

While she was signed to a hardship contract with the Fever, McDonald posted 11.0 points, 1.3 rebounds and 3.0 assists per game. She will be backing up one of the top guards in the WNBA.
