Allen has had defenses that are absolutely good enough for most of his seasons (if not all of them). He's had good OLs. Dawson Knox isn't Kelce, but he's not some shlub, either. And they've had WRs. That's enough talent to make shit work. And if Allen were as good as the Bills claim he is, he should be able to eke out one win against Mahomes with that collection of players.
I think that may change as Beane has had a rough go of it thus far getting outsmarted by Veach in the draft and being unable to replace aging or expensive players with younger talent. Either that, or Beane has squandered resources on inefficient production guys like old ass Von Miller in the name of going all in, but he hasn't quite figured out that those opportunities to go all in show up often enough when you just remain patient and pick the players that can actually help your team without preventing you from adding to the roster in other areas.
So sure, this might change beginning this year, but up until this point, Josh has had just as easy of a go of it in terms of winning as Mahomes in terms of his surrounding talent.
And yeah, that includes the refs as well. If anything, Allen has had MORE help from officials than Mahomes in their playoff games against each other.

Beane actually isn't in charge.
It's McDermott. And McDermott wants to spend gobs of money on veteran D Line backups and old players.
Beane is an admin and figure head who was collecting helmets and equipment in Carolina, has zero scouting background.
