The NFL witnessed an electrifying quarterback showdown on Sunday as Matthew Stafford’s Los Angeles Rams edged out Josh Allen and the Buffalo Bills in a heart-stopping 44-42 thriller.
What seemed like a blowout early on – with the Rams leading 31-14 in the third quarter – transformed into a nail-biting contest that kept fans on the edge of their seats.
Despite the loss, Josh Allen delivered a performance that will be etched in NFL history, per NFL Research.
The Bills’ MVP contender became the first player ever to throw for three touchdowns and rush for three more in a single game, a feat that showcases his extraordinary versatility and athletic prowess.

Allen’s stat line was nothing short of spectacular. He completed 22 of 37 passes for 342 yards and three aerial touchdowns.
But his ground game was equally impressive – leading the Bills with 82 rushing yards and three touchdowns on just 10 carries.
This remarkable outing marked his first game this season with over 300 passing yards and more than 50 rushing yards, and the first time he scored multiple touchdowns both through the air and on the ground.
The 28-year-old quarterback also demonstrated remarkable connectivity, finding seven different receivers throughout the game.
His ability to keep the Bills competitive, even when trailing by significant margins, highlighted why he’s considered one of the league’s most dynamic players.
Though Buffalo fell short, their 10-3 record keeps them firmly in control of the AFC East.
The Rams, meanwhile, improved to 7-6 and are now just a single game behind the Washington Commanders for the final NFC playoff spot.
