Josh Allen had a spectacular game in the Bills’ victory over the Buccaneers with three rushing touchdowns and three passing touchdowns. This historic performance gives him a total of 75 career touchdowns.
Only three quarterbacks in NFL history, including the postseason, have achieved three passing touchdowns and three rushing touchdowns in the same game. Allen has done it twice, the last time last year against the Rams. Otto Graham also achieved it in 1954.
Allen, in his eighth season, is tied with Cam Newton at the top of the list of rushing touchdowns for a quarterback in NFL history. The next challenge for Allen and the Bills is the Houston Texans in Week 12. The Texans are one of three teams that haven’t allowed a rushing touchdown to a rival quarterback this season. Will Allen be able to break the record in the next match? We analyze the predictions of our betting experts.Matt Bowen: Yes. Allen has been used more in running plays in the end zone in recent games. This trend is expected to continue against the Texans.Eric Karabell: Yes, he will score. Despite the strong Texans defense, Allen is unstoppable at the goal line.Pamela Maldonado: Yes. When Houston defends the pass well near the end zone, Allen is usually the one running with the ball.Seth Walder: Yes. Allen is always a threat to score, but it could depend more on his ability to run against the excellent pressure of the Texans. In addition, the Bills need to win to aim for the first place in the conference, so they will use all available tools, including Allen’s legs.
