Josh Allen has historic performance in Bills' blowout playoff win

Josh Allen's performance was one for the history books on Saturday. Literally.

According to Pro-Football Reference, Allen became the first quarterback in NFL history to record at least 300 passing yards, five passing touchdowns and 60 rushing yards in a playoff game, helping fuel the Bills to a 47-17 obliteration of the Patriots.

Allen finished with 308 yards through the air with five touchdowns and no interceptions and 66 yards on the ground on six rushes. He got things going early with an impressively patient touchdown pass to Dawson Knox.

The Bills controlled the game from start to finish, never surrendering the lead and never showing any blemishes. They scored touchdowns on every drive excluding two that came at the end of the first half and the end of regulation.

Allen is now 3-2 in the postseason with the Bills after leading them to the playoffs in each of the last three seasons. He's thrown for 10 touchdowns to just one interception in those games while passing for 1,389 yards. He's rushed for 303 yards on 40 attempts.
