Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen is on the verge of rewriting NFL history, needing just one more rushing touchdown to surpass Cam Newton’s all-time record for quarterbacks. As he closes in on the milestone, fans and analysts alike are celebrating what many are calling the greatest dual-threat performance the league has ever seen.
Allen tied Newton’s 75 career rushing touchdowns last week after scoring three times on the ground in the Bills’ 44-32 victory over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. His next touchdown would give him sole possession of the record, cementing his place among the most dynamic offensive players in NFL history. Already the all-time leader in combined regular-season and postseason rushing touchdowns by a quarterback, Allen’s mark of 82 total further separates him from his peers.

This season alone has showcased Allen’s unmatched versatility. Through 10 games, he has tallied 10 rushing touchdowns to go along with 18 passing scores, positioning Buffalo at 7-3 heading into a pivotal Thursday Night Football matchup against the Houston Texans. His ability to dominate through both the air and on the ground has turned the Bills into one of the league’s most feared offensive units despite inconsistent health across their receiving corps.
Teammates and coaches have praised Allen’s relentless energy and all-around skill set, describing him as a player capable of taking over games at will. His dual-threat nature has drawn comparisons to legends like Steve Young and Lamar Jackson, though Allen’s combination of size, power, and finesse makes him uniquely difficult to defend. Offseason critics questioning his decision-making have been quieted by his recent string of dominant performances.
