Allen completed seven of 15 passes for 94 yards and a touchdown while rushing eight times for 24 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 31-10 win over the Cowboys.
EDGE Analysis
Allen put the Bills up 14-0 with an 18-yard touchdown pass to James Cook in the second quarter, then extended Buffalo's advantage to 21-3 with a one-yard touchdown run 1:36 before halftime. The star quarterback came up short of 100 passing yards for the first time since the final game of the 2019 regular season, as Cook led the way with 211 scrimmage yards and two touchdowns. Allen produced at least one touchdown each with his arm and legs in the same game for the ninth time this season, and he's up to 26 passing touchdowns and 11 rushing touchdowns heading into Saturday's road game against the Chargers.

Allen completed 23 of 42 passes for 233 yards and a touchdown with an interception while adding 32 rushing yards and a TD on 10 carries in Sunday's 20-17 win over Kansas City.
EDGE Analysis
His six-yard scamper in the second quarter gave the sixth-year QB his 10th rushing touchdown of the season, a new career high. Allen's first-quarter strike to James Cook was also his 25th passing TD of the year, and he's produced multiple scores in 12 straight games dating back to Week 2. Allen will face another tough test in a Week 15 home matchup against the Cowboys.

Allen completed 29 of 51 passes for 339 yards and two touchdowns with one interception, adding 81 rushing yards and two TDs on nine carries, in Sunday's 37-34 overtime loss to the Eagles.
EDGE Analysis
The quarterback did more than enough to secure a win for the Bills, but two missed field goals in regulation by Tyler Bass on a rainy day in Philadelphia proved costly in the end. The 81 rushing yards were a season high for Allen, while he put together his fourth 300-yard passing performance of the year and extended his streak of games producing multiple TDs to 11. Buffalo will head into its Week 13 bye three losses back of Miami in the AFC East and on the outside looking in for a wild-card spot, but Allen in on pace for career highs in passing yards and rushing TDs, having already tied his prior best in the latter category with nine through 12 games.

Allen completed 20 of 32 passes for 275 yards and three touchdowns with one interception in Sunday's 32-6 win over the Jets. He added 15 rushing yards on five carries.
EDGE Analysis
New offensive coordinator Joe Brady has an immediate positive impact on Allen's play, as the quarterback tossed at least three TDs for the first time since Week 4 and posted a YPA above 8.0 for the first time since Week 5. He also set a new Bills record by throwing at least one touchdown for the 19th straight game, breaking the mark set by Jim Kelly, but Allen also got picked off at least once for the seventh straight contest, so the issues in the passing game may not have been completely fixed by the coaching change. The sixth-year QB will at least take some momentum into Week 12's trip to Philadelphia.

Allen completed 15 of 26 passes for 177 yards with one touchdown and two interceptions in the Bills' 24-22 loss to the Broncos on Monday night. He also rushed four times for 13 yards and another score, threw a two-point conversion pass and lost a fumble.
EDGE Analysis
Allen surprisingly was stymied by an aggressive and improving Broncos defense that was able to limit him to his second-lowest yardage tally of the season. The versatile signal-caller also tossed an interception for the sixth straight game and multiple picks for the first time since Week 1. Allen's pair of miscues through the air directly led to only three Broncos points, but his first one robbed Buffalo of a great chance for at least that much since it came on Denver's 12-yard line. Allen atoned for those errors and his third-quarter fumble with a 22-yard touchdown pass to Dalton Kincaid and a go-ahead six-yard scoring run with 1:55 remaining, but the Bills still came up short thanks to the Broncos' improbable game-winning drive. Allen will now look to prevent his team from falling below .500 in a home divisional rematch of the season opener with the Jets in Week 11.

Allen completed 26 of 38 pass attempts for 258 yards with one touchdown and one interception while adding eight rushes for 44 yards and another score in the Bills' 24-18 loss to the Bengals on Sunday night. He also threw a two-point conversion pass.
EDGE Analysis
Allen put together a solid stat line in his second loss to Joe Burrow and the Bengals in the 2023 calendar year, and he got off to an encouraging start by answering an early Cincinnati touchdown with a seven-play, 85-yard march that he capped off with a two-yard scoring run. However, the remainder of the first half was a non-starter for Buffalo's offense, with the team's remaining possessions prior to halftime resulting in a pair of punts, an interception and a drive that stalled at the Bengals' 38 leading into intermission. Allen was able to come back to lead the Bills to a field goal on the first possession of the second half, but he couldn't help facilitate any additional points until his 17-yard touchdown pass to Stefon Diggs with 3:32 remaining and ensuing two-point conversion toss to his star wideout. Allen saw his streak of games with multiple passing touchdowns snapped at five, but he's now recorded a rushing score in three straight contests heading into a Week 10 home matchup against the Broncos on Monday night, Nov. 13.
