While their is no other QB I would take over Burrow it's undeniable Allen played at a higher level this year for the Bills.

Bates still struggled the second half of the season.  He had 3 games where he allowed 100+ passer rating against in the second half of the season, same as the first half.  His worst game of the season was the LAC game where he was torched for 6 completions for 95 yards and 2 TD's.  Overall, he was marginally better, but still a weak link.  

He played some great football in the playoffs, though the Titans game was rough, but I have no clue why folks are now trying to retroactively say he was good the second half of the year.
