Sunday Night Football brings us an AFC East showdown as the Buffalo Bills host the New England Patriots in upstate New York. Kickoff is at 8:20 p.m. ET, and the rivalry game can be seen on NBC.
Bills QB Josh Allen isn’t just making plays through the air — he’s doing serious damage on the ground, too. The reigning MVP ranks fourth among quarterbacks in rushing yards with 131 and sits second in rush attempts at 31. With 3 rushing touchdowns to his name — tied for second-most among quarterbacks — it’s clear Allen isn’t shy about using his legs to keep drives alive and punch it into the end zone.

Josh Allen Projections, Picks for Bills vs. Patriots on Sunday Night Football
Bills QB Josh Allen Projection: 12.5 Longest Rush
- Over the last five games, Allen has averaged 21.60 yards per longest rush. The only time he came up short was Week 1 against the Ravens, where his longest scamper was just 9 yards.
- Despite ranking just 43rd in scramble attempts among quarterbacks with 14, Allen leads the league in scramble yards with 143, per PFF.
- In Buffalo's Week 16 clash with the Pats last season, Allen ran for 30 yards on six attempts, highlighted by a 12 yard scramble.
- Allen could have more room to operate with the New England Patriots DT Milton Williams listed as questionable for Week 5 due to an ankle injury — potentially setting the stage for a few long Allen trots.
