Passing Gary Danielson this weekend would be great :)

 

Getting past Josh Freeman would be fantastic.

 

I was surprised Freeman was that high, considering how short of a time he was in the NFL.  And I'm wondering what happened to him?  He had a pretty good 2012 season (he could have been a Pro Bowler this year!) and then went off the rails.

Greg Schiano ran him out of TB.  then concussion ended his stay in Minnesota.  Played some in CFL and retired.  He was the prototypical (physically)  QB.

With 3 more rushing TDs Allen (currently 29) would become the 3rd all time in rushing TDs in Bills History passing Fred Jackson (30) and Cookie Gilchrist (31) and would trail only the two all-time greats OJ (57) and Thurman Thomas (65). 
 

I wonder if he’ll pass them.

Weirdly, I was a Browns fan growing up in Cheektowaga.  I liked them even more than the Bills as a kid.   So I remember #162, the solidly good Bill Nelsen.  Kind of fascinating that Allen is already closing in on him.  Allen has become a prolific passer - but it's also a different game today.

Maybe these two things have been mentioned before, but I'm surprised Matt Stafford is so high on the list and Fitz-magic, 9 teams (that's practically 1/3 of the entire league)!!

Finally provided a long overdue update post NE Game.  Allen only needs 185 yards to pass Mayfield! Well, 185 more yards than what Mayfeld throws since hey both will be playing..

You're surprised that the guy who played a decade with a losing franchise.. playing with Megatron.. from behind all the time

 

Threw the ball a lot and racked up a lot of yards? 

 

Stafford was far from the problem in Detroit.. he was basically throwing for 4000+ yards a year

Updated today...Allen has the potential to pass quite a few people with a good performance tonight, and should be passing Mayfield quite easily as he only needs 12 yards to do so.
