Josh Allen just dropped five total touchdowns on the Detroit Lions during the Buffalo Bills’ 41-31 win on Thursday night, and you better believe the MVP conversation is already buzzing. After that monster performance, FanDuel Sportsbook has Allen sitting pretty at +260 odds to snatch that MVP trophy.
Allen’s Unstoppable Show in the New Highmark Stadium
Seriously, did you *see* what Allen did? In the Bills’ first game in their brand-new Highmark Stadium, he was absolutely dialed in. He carved up the Lions defense, going 20-of-31 for 248 yards and tossing three touchdowns. The best part? Not a single interception. But he wasn’t done there! Our guy decided to run it in twice himself, racking up 69 rushing yards on 14 attempts. Five total scores, man! What a debut for the new digs!
Making NFL History and Chasing Another MVP
This wasn’t some one-off fluke either. Allen came out swinging in Week 1 against the Houston Texans, leading the Bills to a 36-31 victory. He completed 69.0 percent of his passes for 334 yards and two touchdowns without a pick in that game too. Combine those two games, and Allen’s already doing something we’ve never seen before: he’s the first player in NFL history to record at least five touchdown passes and four touchdown runs in the first two games of a season. The dude is just built different, and we all know he’s been here before, earning MVP recognition for his incredible 2024 campaign.
So, here we are in the early season, and Josh Allen is already rewriting the record books and putting the league on notice. With that kind of start, you know every defense is trying to figure out how to slow him down. Good luck with that! He’s clearly got his eyes set on another MVP, and who’s gonna stop him?
