Barring a historical meltdown over these next three games, Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen is setting himself up to win his first MVP award of his career. We all know what he can do through the air and on the ground. It also helps that he’s only been sacked 13 times this season.
NFL fans have witnessed the greatness of Allen in different ways. Just this season alone, Allen has scored a passing, rushing, and receiving touchdown in one game. He has taken over the record for most total touchdowns in Bills history, and has rushed for 60 career rushing touchdowns, making him the only quarterback along with Cam Newton to have that stat in a career.
Each week, it seems like Allen is making some sort of history whether it’s league or Bills history. Week 16 will be no different for Allen and the Bills when they welcome in the New England Patriots tomorrow. According to the Buffalo Bills PR X account, there are multiple ways that Allen and the Bills can re-write history against their division rivals.
Josh Allen, Buffalo Bills set to embarrass Patriots and make history in Week 16
For the Bills overall, they have scored 30+ points in eight-straight games and if they can do it again against the Patriots, they will be the first team to do it in nine consecutive games in NFL history. New England has given up 30+ points in four games this season so this is a possibility for the Bills.
If Josh Allen can score three total touchdowns, he will become the first player in history with five consecutive 40+ touchdown seasons. Allen already has four seasons of putting up those numbers ahead of Drew Brees (3), Tom Brady (2), Aaron Rodgers (2), and Brett Favre (2). That is some elite company to be mentioned with and Allen is still well in his prime.
In addition, if Allen can get to four touchdowns, he will be the fifth player in history with four total touchdowns in four straight games. In the last three weeks, Allen has put up 14 touchdowns himself. Fans will be looking for him to add onto that number.
Allen is setting a high standard of what coaches may want from their quarterbacks moving forward. However, not all of them have Allen’s talent. He can do it all. He can throw, run, and even catch passes making him nearly unstoppable if defenses can’t pressure him.
New England’s defense is in for a very long day if they allow Allen to get into the open field. Tune in tomorrow at 4:25PM EST on CBS to watch Allen and the Bills potentially make history against the Patriots.
