Josh Allen Quietly Sets NFL Record No Player Has Ever Touched After Breakout Win vs. Buccaneers
Buffalo, NY. Week 11 ended with another thunderbolt from Josh Allen. And this time, it wasn’t just a big game — it was the kind of historic eruption only he has ever produced in the 104-year history of the NFL.
Against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, the Bills quarterback delivered a performance that left statisticians scrambling. Allen finished the night with 317 passing yards, three passing touchdowns, and three rushing touchdowns
He completed 19 of 30 passes, added 40 rushing yards, and carried Buffalo to a crucial 44–32 victory — a response to critics after last week’s sluggish loss to Miami.
This performance also pushed Allen deeper into NFL record books. His third rushing TD of the game tied Cam Newton’s all-time record for most career rushing touchdowns by a quarterback (75), a milestone many thought would stand for years.
He surpassed Peyton Manning for the most total touchdowns by any player age 30 or younger, reaching 290 before even celebrating his 30th birthday. He also set an NFL record with his
11th career game featuring at least 3 passing TDs and 1 rushing TD, breaking Tom Brady’s previous high of 10.
And he wasn’t done.
Allen posted his third career game with at least 3 passing TDs and 2 rushing TDs, breaking another league record and surpassing Kordell Stewart.
Even his deep-ball ability was on display again, highlighted by a 52-yard touchdown bomb to Ty Johnson — giving Allen his fourth career game with multiple throws of 40+ yards for scores.
Buffalo improved to 7–3, staying tight in the AFC East race behind New England. The Bills now face a short turn-around before traveling to Houston for Thursday Night Football.
Josh Allen didn’t just silence doubters.
He carved out yet another chapter in NFL history — quietly, emphatically, and unmistakably reminding the league:
Nobody does epic quite like him.
