It wasn’t Bills quarterback Josh Allen’s most inspiring performance in Monday night’s 22–16 overtime loss to the Jets to begin the season.
Allen turned in a pedestrian 29-for-41 passing performance for 236 yards and one touchdown to three interceptions, underscoring a night in which Buffalo’s offense failed to get going.
Allen’s penchant for throwing ill-timed interceptions is well-documented, but it doesn’t have his offensive coordinator Ken Dorsey concerned.
“I don’t think you get to this point in [Allen]‘s career if this happened every single game,” Dorsey said. “Some of the best quarterbacks of all time have had multiple interception games.”

Allen’s performance has led to NFL media members questioning whether or not Stefon Diggs might be interested in playing elsewhere, especially considering Diggs’s tardiness to Buffalo training camp.
While this may all be a giant overreaction, the poor start to the year offensively falls squarely on the shoulders of Allen, who has a lot on his plate as he tries to lead the AFC contender to a Super Bowl this season, in his sixth year in the NFL.
