We’re in Year 3 of “Josh Allen: Superstar,” and he’s somehow still finding ways to amaze us with pure wizardry every week. His latest incredible in-game stunt (after pulling off an awesome pre-game stunt) feels like something only the Buffalo Bills’ cyborg quarterback could manage.
With the Bills looking to add to a 10-7 lead over the New England Patriots on a key third and goal in the second quarter, the Patriots were able to flush Allen out of the pocket. At a certain point, it felt like everyone thought the play was dead, as the Buffalo superstar was seemingly rolling out of bounds.
Ah, but there’s one crucial caveat: Plays with Allen are never really dead, provided he’s still upright with the ball in his hands. In this case, Allen fired a TD pass to Gabriel Davis off one foot while he was about to go out of bounds.
I mean … what else can you reasonably say about this pure ridiculousness?
My mind: Josh Allen is gonna end up out of bounds.

Seriously. HOW? Allen is a listed 237-pound man. I’m no scientist, but he has to be defying the laws of physics here.
The Bills might be ravaged by injuries right now — Allen included, as he plays through a right elbow ailment. But if he’s healthy and in uniform, touchdown passes such as this demonstrate they should probably never truly be out of any game.
NFL fans were astonished Allen was able to throw a TD while going out of bounds

We need MORE ENERGY when Josh Allen makes a ridiculous play like that crossbody-almost out of bounds-jump throw for a touchdown.

Good lord. Josh Allen made that pass with half of his body out of bounds.

Josh Allen only throws touchdowns against the Patriots when it looks like he is going out of bounds.

Don’t jump out of bounds and throw across your body, unless you’re Josh Allen.

You can’t just push Josh Allen out of bounds you gotta bring an army of angry ogres to tackle him
He’s like that character in the fighting game that you can’t do a lot of damage to but then he hits you once and you lose 96% of your HP https://t.co/zKAxh2V4M2
