Josh Allen needles Bills fans for leaving early during thrilling win: 'Have some faith next time'
NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!
Some Buffalo Bills fans left Orchard Park, New York, early on Sunday night as the team went down 40-25 with under 12 minutes left to play in the fourth quarter against the Baltimore Ravens.
Little did they know, Josh Allen and the Bills’ defense were going to orchestrate an improbable comeback. Allen was responsible for three touchdowns in the fourth quarter and helped get the Bills up the field for Matt Prater’s 32-yard game-winning field goal. Defensive tackle Ed Oliver also caused Derrick Henry to fumble – the running back’s only blemish during the night.

Allen implored Bills fans to have some more confidence in the team going forward.
“Our team didn’t quit,” he said after the game. “I think there’s people who left the stadium. That’s OK. We’ll be fine. But have some faith next time.”
The Bills had to have a few things fall their way to even sniff the lead at the end of the game. It really started with Buffalo’s final drive of the first half.
Allen and the Bills had the ball with 31 seconds left in the second quarter. He completed a 26-yard pass to Khalil Shakir and clocked the ball with eight seconds left. Instead of trying for a Hail Mary throw into the end zone, Allen found Dalton Kincaid streaking across the field and made a pinpoint throw to the tight end with one second left.
Prater hit a field goal from 43 yards out to keep Buffalo to within one score of the Ravens.

With 4:05 left in the fourth quarter, Allen dropped back to pass in the red zone on 4th-and-2, he fired a pass to the end zone. It was tipped by a Bills player and somehow Keon Coleman made the catch in the end zone. Buffalo was within eight points of the lead.
The Henry fumble led to another Bills touchdown. The Ravens got the ball back and could have put the game away with a first down. But they only gained seven yards on three plays. Coach John Harbaugh elected to punt the ball away and let his defense take over.
Allen led Buffalo on a nine-play, 66-yard drive that ended with Prater’s game-winner.
“Josh, he’s always been like that though. He wants the ball in key moments of the game,” coach Sean McDermott said. “That’s what the great ones, that’s their mindset. That’s what they want, that’s what they do. And he’s never out of it in his mind.”

Allen was 33-of-46 with 394 passing yards in the win. He had two passing touchdowns and two rushing touchdowns.

Becky Lynch enters exclusive WWE club with Women’s Intercontinental Championship win at WrestleMania 42
NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!
LAS VEGAS – Becky Lynch entered an atmosphere no other WWE women’s superstar has ever reached as she won the Women’s Intercontinental Championship over AJ Lee on Saturday night at WrestleMania 42.
Lynch became the first person to hold the Women’s Intercontinental Championship three times after she pinned Lee. She first won the title against Lyra Valkyria in June 2025 and then again against Maxxine Dupri in November.

She dropped the belt to Lee at the Elimination Chamber, sparking a monthslong feud with her.
Lee gave Lynch the chance at the title in the weeks prior to WrestleMania 42. But it appeared Lee played right into Lynch’s plans. Despite arguing with referee Jessica Carr for most of the match, Lynch was able to tactfully tear down a rope buckle and use it to her advantage.
Lynch hit Lee with a Manhandle Slam and pinned her for the win.

It’s the second straight year Lynch will leave Las Vegas as champion. She returned to WWE at WrestleMania 41, teaming with Valkyria, to win the women’s tag titles. She will now leave Allegiant Stadium as the women’s intercontinental champion.
Lynch is now a seven-time women’s champion, three-time women’s intercontinental champion and two-time tag team champion.

Lee’s reign as champion ended really before it could really begin. WrestleMania 42 was her first appearance at the event in 11 years. It’s unclear where Lee will go from here.

Letters to Sports: Clippers were oh so close, yet so far
The Clippers’ season has come to an end but better than anyone expected. No consolation but a great job by head coach Tyronn Lue for guiding the Clippers from a disastrous 6-21 start and finishing with more than 40 wins.
Coach Lue led the team, overcoming major obstacles throughout the season with a player investigation, injuries, internal strife and major roster changes at the trade deadline. As usual for Clipper fans, wait till next year.

The Clippers are the NBA’s version of Stealers Wheel’s “Stuck in the Middle With You.” Yes, they have had 15 straight seasons of playing .500 or better, and owner Steve Ballmer has brought them respectability, but for their entire 56-year existence — which has contained many clowns and jokers — they still have never [attained] their goal of winning (or even reaching) the NBA Finals.

LAS VEGAS – Paul Walter Hauser is an actor who has been in “The Naked Gun,” “Blackbird,” and “Richard Jewell.” But on Friday night at Maple Leaf Pro’s first U.S. event, MLP Multiverse, there was no acting going on.
Hauser squared off against QT Marshall in a sin city street fight at the Palms Casino Resort in Las Vegas. It was the final show of Slam Fest. The two pro wrestlers pulled out all the stops and left the ring in complete disarray.

It was a rematch of their brawl at Ring of Honor’s Death Before Dishonor event. Marshall went on the attack first, throwing in all kinds of foreign objects into the ring, including a piece of wood wrapped with barbed wire, a table, a cane, chairs and even a door was brought into the match.
Hauser was able to regain momentum in the match. He set up the barbed-wire object in the corner. Marshall countered and was trying to whip Hauser into the barbed wire. However, Hauser stopped himself. As Marshall tried to take Hauser by surprise, the movie star avoided Marshall and tossed him into the barbed wire.
Marshall was busted open, but wasn’t done. Hauser was trying to inflict more pain. He set up a table near one corner of the ring and poured thumbtacks on top of it. Marshall was able to powerbomb Hauser through the tacked table.
