The Bills rank 31st in rushing yards allowed to quarterbacks, giving up 39 yards last week to Baker Mayfield. Yes, the previous four quarterbacks to face them before last week went under this number, but the first five quarterbacks to face them this season all went over this number.

Quarterback data versus the Bills this season
Overall, 6 of 10 QBs to face them have had at least 9 yards, and all 10 QBs are averaging 24 yards per game. It’s also important to note that quarterbacks are averaging 3.4 rushing attempts against the Bills this season, and Mills is averaging 2.5 rushing attempts in his two starts this season.
⭐ Josh Allen, Longest Rush ⭐
This is the one - we’re focusing on Allen’s longest rush, as it jumps off the page. Allen is averaging a longest rush of 18.1 yards per game this season, going over this number in 60% of his games and in 75% of his road games, averaging a longest rush of 21.0 yards.

And his data on primetime is also outstanding, with a 75% hit rate and an average longest rush of 17.8. In his only road, primetime game this season, his longest rush was 24 yards.

And then of course there’s the matchup - three straight quarterbacks have gone over this number against the Texans, with Cam Ward, Trevor Lawrence and Bo Nix averaging a longest rush of 22 yards. Even the week before, Mac Jones just missed at 13 yards.

The season started wth Baker going over this number, and the next two QBs still managing rushes over 10, even though they narrowly missed the over, too.
