Josh Allen shone again and etched his name in the NFL record books. The Buffalo Bills quarterback set a new record for rushing touchdowns by a passer on Sunday, reaching 76 touchdowns and surpassing Cam Newton's mark of 75, in a 26-7 victory over the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 13. The win keeps the Bills in second place in the AFC East with an 8-4 record, while Pittsburgh remains second in the AFC North with a 6-6 record. The game was shaken up early. On the Steelers' first offensive drive, Joey Bosa tackled Rodgers from behind, forcing a fumble that Christian Benford recovered and returned for a touchdown, making it 10-7. The hit opened a cut on Rodgers' nose, who was also dealing with a wrist fracture; He had to leave the field and give way to Mason Rudolph, who on his first series threw an interception to Benford himself. The Buffalo offense capitalized on the mistake. Allen connected with Keon Coleman for a touchdown pass to extend the lead to 7-16 and set the tone for the game. In the final quarter, Pittsburgh's defense faltered, and the Bills quarterback once again came through with a rushing touchdown that improved his record and secured the victory. A field goal by Matt Prater closed the score at 7-26. It was a historic afternoon for Allen and confirmation of the Bills' strong form as they dream of going further in the postseason.
