Josh Allen Gives Ball Away Four Times In Week 1 Dud

Josh Allen Gives Ball Away Four Times In Week 1 Dud

one year ago

Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen completed 29-of-41 attempts for 236 yards, one touchdown, and three interceptions with six carries for 36 yards and a lost fumble in Monday's 22-16 loss to the New York Jets. The 27-year-old admittedly executed an "arm punt" of sorts on his first pick. Allen then finished off an 11-play drive on the run while finding Stefon Diggs for five yards to score the game's first touchdown in the second quarter. Allen's second INT came on an ill-advised throw into double coverage in the third period, and his third arrived after Tahir Whitehead cut in front of Gabe Davis for this third takeaway of the game. Allen capped off a nightmarish second half with a botched snap and a lost fumble, which allowed the Jets to hit a go-ahead field goal. It was tough sledding all night for the superstar, whose 2022 struggles against the ferocious Jets defense showed up in the season opener. Expect the offense to come a bit more easily in a Week 2 smash spot for Buffalo's home opener versus the Las Vegas Raiders.
