4. Buffalo Bills def. Miami Dolphins (Week 2 — 2020)

24-35, 417 yards, and four touchdowns.

You were right if you guessed that was Allen's passing statline during the Bills 31–28 victory against the Miami Dolphins in week two of the 2020 season.

After completing his first career 300-yard passing game in week one of the 2020 regular season, Allen officially became the Bills franchise quarterback they'd long been waiting for after this game against the Dolphins — if he hadn't already been that guy.

While he'd shown flashes of brilliance in previous seasons, it wasn't until this fateful Sunday afternoon in Miami that Allen reached his full potential as a passer. The Bills traded for Diggs in the offseason leading up to this game and their relationship flourished when they connected for a 22-yard touchdown during the game's second quarter.

Many point to another game on this list as being Allen's breakout performance, but for some Bills fans, this game served as the final proof that Allen was the Bills answer at the quarterback position. After waiting more than 20 years for that answer, this performance against the Dolphins was pretty fun to watch.
