Josh Allen’s passing stats have come crashing back to earth

Josh Allen was never going to sustain the torrid pace he’d set for himself starting in the 2021 NFL playoffs.

and stretching through the first half of the Buffalo Bills (-7.5)’ Week 8 win over the Green Bay Packers (+5) this season, Allen put up an 8.5-game stat line that justified the rhetoric around his being the best quarterback in the NFL. In that stretch, Allen completed 217-of-313 pass attempts (69.3% completions) for 2,752 yards (8.8 yards per attempt) with 28 touchdowns, four interceptions, and a quarterback rating of 121.0.

Those were just his passing statistics in that run; he also put in stellar work with his legs, of course, but consistency as a runner has never been Allen’s problem.
