Josh Allen, Lamar Jackson have plenty at stake for their NFL legacies

ORCHARD PARK — The hardy souls across western New York and inside Highmark Stadium never ask for much, just that elusive first Super Bowl championship, but first Josh Allen with the ball in his hands last on Sunday night. 

Because their worst nightmare is Lamar Jackson with the ball in his hands last. 

Allen versus Jackson, the tip of the spear for Bills versus Ravens, is the latest epic Star Wars quarterback showdown that rekindles memories of Patrick Mahomes versus both and Tom Brady versus Peyton Manning.

This is a Legacy Game that gets one of the only two MVP candidates to the next Legacy Game.
