Hope is not lost yet.  If the steelers can find a way on xmas the chiefs will get everything Sean Payton can get out of Denver the final week.

 

i have little faith in the steelers but if pickett plays and they can get a lead you never know.

[Let's Go Buffalo]

Allen has been amazing for sure. It should be a fun one today in Orchard Park, as we play host to the Patriots for our first match-up of the season. Go Bills!

[MikePJ76]

I'm really interested to see what the Jets look like today.  If they just go through the motions and get blown out I imagine next week they will want no part of that environment and the bills offense, especially if the chiefs lose on xmas.

 

if they win and play really well today and then know they can screw up Buffalo's shot at the 1 seed they will give it everything they got next week.

There's really only two things we need out of today......

 

A Win

Everyone comes out of the game healthy

 

Honorable mention:  Allen putting up 4+ TDs and 350+ to shut the Ravens fans up, but as long as we get the other 2, that is what really matters.

[CNYfan]

Big game today.  The Defense still needs to come together and show improvement.  Stay focused, play loose - tough environment, time to be tough.

 

Big, game, go Bills!!

I'd like to see all the young guns get some work: Bishop, Carter, Solomon, SGV...even Hardy and Grable. Meanwhile, start ramping down the starters so they're healthy and rested for the playoffs.

For those of us around for ‘The Greatest Game Ever Played” and grew up watching the person who adorns the trophy, dominate the NFL in the 1960s, we have seen some stunning HOF fantastic players, from all the critical positions. 
 

But this stuff is off the map, creepily weird and fantastic!
Ever moreso, that we are his fans!

 

Josh Allen's NFL records

Records Josh Allen has accomplished or extended in 2024

First player since NFL-AFL merger with three passing and three rushing touchdowns in a game (Dec. 8, 2024 at Los Angeles Rams).

First player in NFL history to record multiple career games of 340+ yards passing, 60+ yards rushing, 2+ passing touchdowns and 2+ rushing touchdowns. Allen has done it in back-to-back weeks, Dec. 15, 2024 at Detroit and Dec. 8, 2024 at Los Angeles Rams. Steve Young is the only other player to accomplish the stat line and he did it once in 1991.

First quarterback in league history to record a passing, rushing and receiving touchdown in a game (Dec. 1, 2024 vs. San Francisco).

First player in NFL history with at least two touchdown passes and two rushing touchdowns in consecutive games, and the first player all-time with three such games in a season.

Most total touchdowns in first seven seasons (258 and counting). Patrick Mahomes (231) is second and Peyton Manning and Dan Marino are tied for third (225).

Fastest player in history to 250 total touchdowns (107 games, tied with Patrick Mahomes)

Most career games with at least two passing touchdowns and two rushing touchdowns (6).

Most career games with three passing touchdowns and one rushing touchdown (9, shares the record with Tom Brady and Drew Brees).

Most career games with three or more passing touchdowns and two rushing touchdowns (2, shares the record with Kordell Stewart)

Most games in NFL history with at least 300 yards passing and 50 yards rushing (11).

First player in league history with 35 or more passing and rushing touchdowns in five straight seasons (2000-2024).

Only quarterback in NFL history with multiple streaks of five-plus games with a rushing touchdown.

First player record at least 25 passing touchdowns and at least 10 rushing touchdowns in consecutive seasons. Kyler Murray and Cam Newton are the only others to accomplish the feat in one season.

Most career games with two passing touchdowns and one rushing touchdown (24).

 

Josh Allen records prior to 2024 season

 

Highest passer rating for a quarterback in a single playoffs with a minimum of 50 attempts with a 149.0 passer rating in 2021 postseason, breaking previous mark of 146.4 held by Joe Montana in 1989.

First player with at least 40 total touchdowns in four straight seasons (2000-2023). Allen has 37 total touchdowns in 2024, three shy of extending the streak to five consecutive seasons.

Most rushing touchdowns by a quarterback in a season (15) in 2023. Jalen Hurts also had 15 rushing touchdowns in 2023.

Set NFL single-season record with 11 games with a passing and rushing touchdown in 2023.

 

Records Josh Allen is close to breaking

 

Tied for second-most regular season wins by a quarterback in his first seven seasons with Patrick Mahomes (74). Only Russell Wilson (75) has more.

Allen has 64 rushing touchdowns, one short of tying Thurman Thomas' 65 for most rushing touchdowns in Buffalo Bills history.

 

ALL the more crazy & awe inspiring that we had to through virtually a generation of the worst of lowest low, wandering in the desert, buffoonery to find ourselves in this, pinch ourselves moment.

 

Alien is simply the equivalent of Shohei Ohtani, the rarest of rare birds! He is a freakish combo of precision, rocket arm passing, dazzling power running and the game brain to decide, at the very last, out of bounds moment, to fire cross the body strikes, or blast through for a stretch out TV.

 

We are SO fortunate to be around to witness this astonishing persona and trust that he can stay healthy enough to be one day compared to the greatest sports first names of all time… Babe, Tom, Mike, LeBron, Wayne… etc.

 

 

Pretty sure I mentioned all of this but, Hey! Knock yourself out! Enjoy!

[Kelly to Allen]

Time to destroy the Patriots.

I have only ONE concern today.

 

Cold = Injury.

Body crashing in this cold is for animals….🦬

[BuffaloBillyG]

All I really want is the Bills to come out injury free and have a stress free Sunday where the Bills jump on a bad team and push the gas. Look like a Championship caliber team and pad Josh's MVP stats. 

 

Can't  start slow and let even bad divisional opponents hang around. Boots on necks all day.

BREAKING NEWS! Josh Allen has been playing with a broken hand since his TD vault in the Opener vs. Arizona!

 

[Sierra Foothills]

What I want:

 

1) Zero injuries

2) A Win

3) 30 points and the NFL record

Steelers will be super motivated.  They can still lose the division.
