Expected to carry and shoulder a slightly-heavier load in comparison to years past on the Buffalo Bills’ new-look offense, Josh Allen proved once more in Week 1 that “carry” and “shoulder” are two words safely stored into his vocabulary. Powerfully cutting into the Arizona Cardinals’ double-digit lead, the two-time Pro Bowler read a play-action mesh point flawlessly, keeping it himself before muscling through traffic for a crowd-igniting seven-yard score. In Chapter One of what many believe to be a potential Most Valuable Player-caliber year, Allen went 18-of-23 for 232 yards and two passing touchdowns, alongside nine carries for 39 yards and two rushing touchdowns, coordinating a 34-28 win on Sept. 8, 2024.
