LARAMIE — After a few rough games, Josh Allen led the Buffalo Bills back to victory in Week 6 with an all-around performance. The former University of Wyoming quarterback completed 19 of 25 passes for 215 yards and two touchdowns, while adding nine carries for 18 yards and another score. Allen’s play on Monday Night Football powered Buffalo to a 23-20 win over an Aaron Rodgers-led division rival New York Jets squad.

Buffalo’s success has largely mirrored Allen’s output this season. The team remains unbeaten when Allen throws for over 200 yards, sitting at 4-2 as they prepare to host Tennessee in Week 7.
