It takes years and luck, and Allen is just one of those QBs who needs more to fall into place than Mahomes... he needs his kicker to hit a 50 yard FG because he couldn't keep a drive going. He needs his TE to make a super awkward catch because he didn't pick up on the blitz pre-snap.
Even Mahomes sometimes has to settle for the FG with 3.5 minutes left, yet it's the rare case.
Thus, Allen only really suffers from not being Mahomes... Bills fans have tried so hard to convince themselves they're the same or Allen is even better...well, start winning AFCCGs on one ankle with Skyy and Kadarius instead of blaming everyone else... that's what Mahomes would do. 
The age of every Super Bowl winning quarterback

Tom Brady has really screwed with people's perception of age of QB.
The reality is most QB's don't win SB's after age 31.
