And there's still at least 6 more games to add to that record and if it includes post season would possibly give him up to 10 more games potentially to add to record.

Was wondering the same regarding playoffs. Nonetheless,  an amazing accomplishment.  Literally wouldn't take any other qb over him

The silliest stats from Allen IMO are his rushing stats. He's 3rd in team history with 45 rushing TDs. He's currently 9th in team history in rushing yards and he could be 7th by the end of next weekend. This team has not generally lacked for running backs in its history.

Assuming he continues to be a Bill for another contract after this one. He will be #1 in rushing TDs and #3 in rushing yards in Bills history.

What are the Bills records and record holders for rushing Tds?  I'm guessing it be thurmanator holding the top spot.

 

I googled both and indeed it's Thurman on both.  Now Allen could break the all time td record even within his current contract.  I'd be more than happy to never see him get close to the all time yardage, unless it's just due to having a long and successful career all while wearing a Bills uniform.

Thomas has 65. Allen has 45. He’ll get there in prolly 4 years or less

The bigger record is that Josh just passed Joe Ferguson for 2nd place on the at least 3 TD passes in a game list for a Bills QB.  He's at 23, just 7 behind Jim Kelly.

Yea he can get the td record in his current contract.  On smart and timely runs like today he had a few runs that got chunks at opportune times and he did slide rather than take a bigger hit for a few possible yards.

He needs to win 20 more games as a starter to pass Joe Ferguson and become 2nd with total wins in franchise history.

Chance he can break Kelly's record this year 8f the chips fall right and offense gets its swagger back.  I want him breaking the records of how many different receivers catch a td from Allen in single games.  Who do you focus on 8f everyone is scoring tds?

Can’t believe no one mentioned that Mahomes sat his first season

Wow.. Didn't Thurm have a bunch of receiving TDs too?

I was to young to appreciate Thurman but watched many highlights and full games on YouTube and he consistently looked like the best player on the field.  Could only imagine how dominant he'd be in todays game

Good point! 

Shout out to Nathan Peterman for getting Josh on the field in year 1

Besides the point. The point is, 65 rushing TDs is the record and Josh should be there in the next 3-4 years unless he is castrated beyond belief by the coaching staff.

Can’t believe no one mentioned Allen was mentored by Nathan Peterman and started his career with Kelvin Benjamin and Clay as his WR1 and TE.  

 

Mahomes got to start his career after sitting and learning from Alex Smith and was coached by Andy Reid and got to start with a great OL and have Tyreek Hill and Travis Kelce for weapons.  
 

The circumstances in which Allen got to start his career on a rebuilding team clearing cap space are not remotely the same as the luxury Mahomes did on a playoff ready team with elite weapons and coaching around him.
 

And Mahomes started a game as a rookie.   
 

Allen setting the NFL record despite the dumpster fire he had to work with on a rebuilding franchise his first 2 seasons is quite remarkable.

Misspelling

True but far from all time in first 6 seasons.  And he had only 1 losing season in that span , on a bad team, as a rookie.

This is also a great point!

Mahomes played 80 games.

Allen took 87 games to pass him.

 

While definitely slower, still nothing short of impressive. Especially seeing as how awful his support was in his 1st couple years.

Mahomes also was older which gives him a huge advantage starting only 1 game his rookie year, then launching 50 TDs in one season with 2 all pro weapons for 4 full seasons (2018-2021). 

[PBF81]

Makes one wonder why we haven't gotten more from the team during that time span then.  

 

That seems to implicate coaching as well.
