NFL history: Bills' Josh Allen first ever to pass for 3 TDs, rush for 3 TDs in same game

Josh Allen made NFL history against the Los Angeles Rams on Sunday.

The Buffalo Bills' MVP hopeful added another line to an already impressive résumé this season when he became the first player in NFL history to throw for three touchdowns and rush for three more in the same regular-season game.

Allen finished the day 22-of-37 in the air for 342 passing yards and three passing touchdowns. He also was the Bills' leading rusher with 82 yards and three rushing touchdowns on 10 carries.

Sunday's performance was the gunslinger's first of the season with 300+ passing yards and 50+ rushing yards. It was also his first time scoring more than one touchdown both in the air and on the ground.

Despite Allen's efforts, the Bills couldn't pull out the victory. They dropped the Week 14 game, 44-42, as Rams receiver Puka Nacua gashed the Buffalo passing defense for 162 yards and a touchdown on 12 catches.
