Hailee Steinfeld, starring in the new thriller “Sinners,” was asked on the red carpet about her Super Bowl prediction. Since her fiance is Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen, it should come as no surprise who she picked to win.
Hailee Steinfeld Shares Her Super Bowl Prediction
When asked why the Buffalo Bills are going to win the Super Bowl, Steinfeld didn’t hesitate to respond.
“Why do you think?” she asked. “Look who’s at the helm?”
She’s not wrong to stand by her man.

The Bills are one of the four or five best teams in the NFL and had Allen been awarded a first down in the fourth quarter against the Kansas City Chiefs in the AFC Championship Game, Allen might have gotten his chance to prove it in the Super Bowl.
The Bills clearly see him as their man, too, since they just inked Allen to a six-year, $330 million extension ($250 million guaranteed). With Allen at the helm, the Bills have been a juggernaut in the regular season, going 76-35 for a .685 winning percentage.
Backing the Bills and Allen isn’t the worst bet in the world. He won his first league MVP in 2024 after accounting for 4,269 total yards, 41 total touchdowns, and the fewest turnovers of his career (eight). The Bills became the first team to beat two 14-win teams in the regular season and did it with Allen under center.
Additionally, Allen is the first quarterback to have a passing, rushing, and receiving TD in a game. He’s already passed Jim Kelly as franchise’s TD leader, 262 to 244. Also, amazingly, Allen tied Thurman Thomas for most rushing TDs in franchise history (65).
And Allen has reinforcement on the way. The Bills released linebacker Von Miller but signed former Los Angeles Chargers linebacker Joey Bosa to a one-year deal to take over edge-rushing duties. He’s had to fight the injury bug the last two years, but when he’s healthy, he’s one of the best pass rushers in football with 72 career sacks over nine seasons.
Wide receiver Joshua Palmer was signed as a free agent to give Allen a deep weapon. Over his last two seasons with the Los Angeles Chargers, Palmer averaged 15.12 yards per catch.
The largest stumbling block for Allen and Co. is the same one everyone else in the AFC has to deal with: Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs. As Allen is the helm of the Bills ship, Mahomes and the Chiefs are their white whale.
They beat them in the regular season last year, but the playoffs are what counts. Until he slays Mahomes, Allen will have Steinfeld by his side, but the rest of the NFL will still be in a wait-and-see posture.
