Bills' Josh Allen Projected to Have 2 TDs, 1 Turnover in Week 5 vs Rams

Josh Allen and the Buffalo Bills face the Los Angeles Rams in Week 5 on Monday Night Football. 

Allen brings a multi-touchdown streak into the Bills' Week 5 matchup against the Rams. The superstar QB has provided multiple scores in each of Buffalo's first four games, throwing six scores while rushing for seven, though his yardage has topped 253 just once.

The Rams have allowed only one rushing touchdown and a mere 4.84 yards per pass attempt this season. Myles Garrett won't play in Week 5 and it's unknown if Aaron Donald will suit up either. 

ESPN projects that Allen will throw one touchdown and one interception and run for one score against the Rams with 236 passing yards and 30 rushing yards. 

The Bills beat the Houston Texans in Week 1, the Detroit Lions in Week 2 and the Los Angeles Chargers in Week 3 before losing to the New England Patriots in Week 4.

Against the Patriots, Allen had 253 passing yards, one passing touchdown and one interception while completing 69.7% of his passes. He ran for one touchdown as well.

For any other QB, this stat line would be solid. However, not for Allen, the 2024 MVP and future Hall of Famer who is universally recognized as the best QB in the NFL. 

Allen threw an interception against the Patriots with under two minutes to go while the Bills trailed by three points. The quarterback initially avoided a free rusher by spinning out of the pressure, then heaved the ball into double coverage, which safety Craig Woodson snagged.

It was a mistake Allen used to make a lot as a youngster. He reverted to his reckless old ways. 

Allen has 1,039 passing yards, six passing touchdowns, three interceptions, 118 rushing yards and seven rushing touchdowns this season. He leads the NFL in rushing touchdowns. 

However, Allen hasn't been that productive over his last two games against the Chargers and Patriots. He has three interceptions, two fumbles and just one touchdown pass.

If Allen wants to lead the Bills to a championship for the first time in franchise history, he must take better care of the football. The Pro Bowler has fumbled in all four games this season. Luckily for Allen, only one of his four fumbles was recovered by the other team. 

The Bills have made the AFC Championship Game twice with Allen leading the way. Buffalo lost to Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs both times.

The Chiefs are 4-0 this season, with Mahomes looking like his old self after suffering a major knee injury in 2025. 

It will be fascinating to see how Allen and Co. bounce back in Week 5 against the Rams after losing to the Patriots at home in Week 4. 

Allen enters Week 5 with a 91-40-0 record as the Bills' starting QB. He has 226 touchdown passes and 86 rushing touchdowns.
