Josh Allen: Thursday's Unbeatable QB
20 Nov
Summary
- Josh Allen boasts an undefeated 8-0 record in NFL games played on Thursdays.
- Six of Allen's eight Thursday wins occurred with only three days of rest.
- Allen has an 18:6 touchdown-to-interception ratio on Thursdays.
Buffalo Bills' star quarterback Josh Allen has a remarkable undefeated streak on Thursdays, holding an 8-0 record in games played on this day. Notably, he has secured six of these victories with just three days of rest, demonstrating exceptional resilience and performance under condensed schedules. This streak will be tested when the Bills face the Houston Texans in Week 12, marking their second Thursday game on short rest this season.
Allen's Thursday success extends to his individual statistics, where he has thrown for 18 touchdowns against just six interceptions across his eight victorious appearances. His dual-threat ability is also evident, having rushed for touchdowns in four of those games. This consistent high-level play has earned him praise, with teammates describing him as a 'freak' and the 'best quarterback in the world.'
Despite his Thursday prowess, Allen has a less successful history in Houston, his previous visits resulting in losses. These include a rookie season injury, a playoff defeat in overtime, and a particularly challenging game last season where his passing performance was notably poor. The upcoming matchup against the Texans will be a test of his ability to overcome past struggles in that specific venue.
