You didnt answer my question though, and you are ignoring the fact that Josh still has 6 games to go.  By seasons end its MORE than likely, that even if you back out Allens first 8 games to match Mahomes that he will STILL have more TD's than Mahomes.  

Allen likely wouldn’t have broken the record yet, if Mahomes had started his first year.

 

so sure. There’s a chance if you retroactively removed games played from Allen, he could’ve still broken the record.

 

but he wouldn’t have. Yet. 
 

Agree?

Not Allen's fault Mahomes didn't start or get thrown to the wolves his rookie year. 

 

He wouldn't have even gotten thrown to the wolves.  He would have went on a team that had elite weapons and made the AFCCG and were contenders with Alex Smith at QB.  Just like he did the year he started.

We’re still trying to find ways to put down Mahomes? Stop, it’s stupid. He won the mvp and sb the year they traded Hill. 

 

I don't think anyone is putting Mahomes down.  Just pointing out the comparison works both ways.  Mahomes didn't start his first year so some dont think Josh record is as impressive.  Others are pointing out that Josh started with trash... which is 100% true.

Here is the math:  Josh Allen has 6 more games to get finish his 6 seasons.  He is on pace for 45 total TD's this year (16 more than he has now).  

 

If Allen stays on pace and finishes with 45 he will have 221 for his career through 6 seasons.  Mahomes has 204, but Mahomes only played the final game of his rookie year and Allen played 12 games his rookie year.  If you back out the first 11 games of Allens Rookie year to match Mahomes, Allen will STILL have more TD's than Mahomes with 208 vs 204.

 

So this whole thing about Mahomes not playing his rookie year is really not a legit counter point to the validity of Allens record as he will likely not only officially own the record, but will also have produced more than Mahomes over their first 5 seasons and 1 rookie year game that everyone is using for Mahomes. 

 

And none of that means one QB is better than the other...it means Allens record is legit and even more impressive considering he was saddled with no talent around him on a gutted and rebuilding franchise for the first 2 years to start his career and was also a raw prospect coming in who didn't have the benefit of sitting and learning the game either.  

 

 

 

If Allen stays on pace, if you remove all but the last game of Allens rookie year, he will still have more TD's than Mahomes while having only the one game of his rookie year just like Mahomes.  If that happens, how will you dispute the validity of Allens record then?

 

 

The argument is that Mahomes didn't play the first season...which is factually wrong.  He played the last game.  So I am removing Allens rookie year up to the last game JUST LIKE MAHOMES so their rookie years match.  And when you do, by seasons end, Allen will still have more TD's than Mahomes if he stays on the pace he is on now.

Allen - 88 games, 160 td passes, 45 rushing, total 205/ 88= 2.32 tds/ game 

 

mahomes - 89 games, 209 td passes, 12 rushing tds, total 221/ 89 - 2.48 tds: game

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

Because he sucked, and was sulking because the Bills traded the pick.

Allen likely would have broke the record much sooner and by more had he had Diggs and Beasley his rookie year too.  That game of what if goes both ways.

So let me see if I get this straight...Allen already owns the official record and did it in 5 seasons and 4 games because he missed 6 games due to injury and still has 6 games to play this year.  I mean its not his fault Mahomes didn't beat out Alex Smith as a rookie to start sooner.  

 

But if Allen keeps his current pace and ends up with 45 TD's, if we then ignore every game but Allens last game as a rookie to match Mahomes  rookie year and he STILL has more TD's than Mahomes you are saying it STILL won't be legit?  

 

So no matter how many ways Allen gets more TD's than Mahomes it will never be a valid record by your eyes is what I get from you.  Which is just crazy to me.  

 

And Allen's record does NOT mean Allen is better than Mahomes, it means Allen set the record for most total TD's in NFL history over first 6 seasons...and he didn't need 6 seasons to do it, he has done it in 5 seasons and 4 games (he missed 6 due to injury and he still has 6 left to play this year).  And considering he started on a rebuilding team with scrubs as weapons his early years, that is quite the accomplishment.

I don't see why the fact that Allen is a touchdown machine is so offensive to people😂😂

Your second paragraph is completely wrong lol. I would agree. 
 

I’m just saying that until that comes, it’s likely that Allen wouldn’t have broken the record yet, if Mahomes had played that full rookie year.

through 2 seasons, KB (a first rounder so he was though had almost 2,000 receiving yards.  Hill (5th rounder) , first 2 seasons with Alex Smith, 1,700 yards. Hardly HOFer. Then entered Mahomes.

 

Wait we're doing Kelvin Benjamin trutherism now? Cool.

 

You know what he did after getting kicked off the Bills? Went to the Chiefs. He played in one game, had a perfect Mahomes pass bounce off his chest and hit the ground, and then never played football again.

 

The irony isn't lost on me that now people are lamenting how unfair it is that Mahomes only has ONE Hall of Fame talent to throw the ball to. It's not his fault that he has to produce with the likes of R̶o̶b̶e̶r̶t̶ F̶o̶s̶t̶e̶r̶ Marquez Valdes-Scantling, A̶n̶d̶r̶e̶ H̶o̶l̶m̶e̶s̶ Justin Watson, Z̶a̶y̶ J̶o̶n̶e̶s̶ Kadarius Toney, and K̶e̶l̶v̶i̶n̶ B̶e̶n̶j̶a̶m̶i̶n̶ Skyy Moore. And his OL isn't definitively a top 2 OL in football anymore. It's a meager top 5-ish now. How does he ever manage to move the ball forward?

 

Seriously though if you ever need a good laugh, look up the 2018 Bills starting pass catchers and OL. It was so bad that the entire fanbase fell in love with a CFL star in 2019 because by comparison he represented a huge improvement. It's seriously unbelievable that Josh Allen took any positive steps forward in his development with those first two years of BS around him. I'm not sure any QB in history would have broken this record with that awful starting point to their career.

They didn’t make the AFCCG until he started. They only won 1 playoff game with Alex Smith.

Even though you’re completely correct can’t really blame the fanbase for hanging on to things like this. What else is there to tout? I’m sure if you ask Mahomes he wouldn’t care less about something as arbitrary as this record compared to his hardware. If you ask Allen I’m sure he’d say he’d rather get some hardware over this. 
 

It’s nice to have a stud qb on the Bills and that’s the important takeaway.

Oh youre right my mistake.  I thought they made it one year.  That team was still good though.  Two 11-5 years, a 12-4 year the year before Mahomes started and a 10-6 year.  My point was Mahomes didn't walk onto a dumpster fire team.  He walked onto an already good team with an elite offense that just didnt get over the hump and got them over the hump with his elite play.

[Sammy Watkins' Rib]

One of my favorite records that he annually breaks. I think he’s been setting this record each year since 2021.
 

he’s also well on his way to his fourth straight 40+ touchdown season. do any other quarterbacks even have three straight such seasons?

Oh completely agree. They had some superbowl worthy teams except for the quarterback. Their defense was stellar with Alex Smith.

Seriously Kelvin Benjin fell out of the league like a stone sinking into a lake. From that 2018 roster the only starters we kept were Dawkins and Zay Jones who would not last the season, I suppose you could count McKenzie since he was brought in late in 2018 and was on the roster in 2019 also Foster though he wasn't a starter going into 2018 as PS WR but everyone was terrible and he was the only one making plays. Unfortunately Foster forgot about that in 2019. I didn't forget about the O-line Dawkins was the only starter we kept and the rest didn't start anywhere else going into 2019.
