Leaping Josh Allen

The Buffalo Bills beat the Kansas City Chiefs this past Sunday. It was a great game to watch on TV. Becky was watching one of her shows on the TV ad I was watching the game on my laptop in a window while doing some writing. It was an exciting game and towards the end I thought Becky might want to check out the conclusion which was in doubt. Both teams were pushing hard so at the two minute warning we put it on in the living room. We were both there in time to see the Bills pull out the win at the end but we also got to see Josh Allen's amazing leap over an opposing player. Becky was stunned to see that exciting play just as we turned on the TV to watch the end of the game. It was also kind of scary to see the franchise player, the quarterback that the team depended on, putting himself at risk of injury in such a spectacular way.

That play was a highlight reel for the ages and in this day and age it quickly became a viral meme on social media all over the place.
