The Buffalo Bills will look to stay in the win column when they take on the New England Patriots in Week 16. While the Patriots have only won three games this season, Bills quarterback Josh Allen isn’t sleeping with their AFC East rival.

“I have a lot of respect for (Patriots quarterback Drake Maye) and his game,” Allen told reporters. “They play hard and there have been a lot of one-scoring games this year that could have easily gone to their advantage.”

“So first and foremost we had to have a good week of training and give our best on the field on Sunday.”

Allen, who was named the AFC Offensive Player of the Week for his incredible performance against the Detroit Lions, has been unstoppable since announcing his signing with Hailee Steinfeld. After taking a knee in November, the MVP candidate has thrown for 852 yards, seven touchdowns and zero interceptions. along with 168 rushing yards and six scores.

While Steinfeld was celebrating her own “big” wins, the Oscar-nominated actress announced even more exciting news in her Beau Society newsletter. In the latest Wrapping Up issue, the 28-year-old shared a cozy new photo with her dog Brando.

Steinfeld wrote: “This past week has been a whirlwind and I’ve been busy with a few work projects that I’m dying to tell you about in the new year! Until then, it feels like a mad dash to the holiday finish line.”

Before celebrating Christmas with Allen, fans hope to see Steinfeld at Highmark Stadium when the Bills take on the Patriots on Sunday, December 22nd. Earlier this week, the 28-year-old quarterback thanked his future wife for his success this season.

“She played a big role,” Allen told the AP. “The morale, the support. When I come home, she is my biggest fan, my biggest supporter. She’s just the best.”
