Bills quarterback Josh Allen has a 96-46 record as a starter in regular-season and postseason games. That’s a 67.6-percent success rate.
Against Sunday’s opponent, he’s right on the Mendoza line.
Allen holds a sluggish 1-4 career record against the Texans, and 0-4 in Houston.
The Week 1 game happens in Houston.
Most recently, Allen was sacked a career-high eight times in a 23-19 Thursday night loss in Houston. He had two interceptions and no touchdown passes in the game.
Countering his one career win against the Texans are eight playoff victories. Per NBC Sports research, that’s the most for any quarterback who did not play in a Super Bowl.
As he starts the ninth year of his career, the clock is ticking. The pressure is increasing. While the postseason narrative can’t change until January, Allen has a chance to alter his history in Houston by finally getting a win there, in his fifth try.
