I think it is very misleading stat since most of the TD's for JA (as well as Hurts) are on QB sneaks (Snowplow and Tushpush)

 

It is not really a credit to the player but to the play

That's kind of a hive mentality thinking 

 

Because if it was that easy every single quarterback in the NFL would have 10 rushing touchdowns a year 

 

It is in fact not easy.. and Josh still has plenty of Rushing touchdowns from 5 6 8 10 yd out in his career 

 

Probably more than any quarterback

I’d venture a significantly larger % of Hurts’ TD’s are of the tush push variety than Allen’s.

Been monitoring that for a while. 52 will have him 3rd all-time (although Henry might get there). He would be ahead of/ Allen, Peterson, Brown, Faulk, Dickerson, Riggins, Sanders,and Payton (plus many others). 

 

DAMN! When you put it like that it’s even more crazy.

I have to admit being so pampered by Josh's talent that plays like that are no longer a surprise.

 

Yeah, I hear that. I try not to take it for granted, the dudes a unicorn and I've no idea if we'll ever see another one like him. Sometimes I'll think about the future like "one day he's gonna retire and that's gonna suuuuck" because I dunno if I can go another 15 years of the foosball gods making us suffer with QBs from the realm of mediocrity.

If the bills organization has grown at all which I think it has.. it would take the Packers way and they've gone from favre to Rodgers to love 

 

Getting a kid to sit behind Josh when he's 34 or 35 and letting him learn for 3 or 4 years is the best thing that we can do.. or taking a few between 34-38 and letting them sit and learn and fight it out to backup

The tush push is a relatively recent thing,  the first 4-5 years of his career Josh ran for all his TDs like a man.
