Thursday night.
So, will he break the record in Week 12? Or do we have to wait? We asked our betting analysts for their predictions.
Will he break the record against the Texans?
Matt Bowen: Yes. Allen’s rushing usage in the lower red zone has increased, as he has five goal-to-go carries over the last three games. Look for this to continue on Thursday, with Allen deployed on run concepts designed to put him in scoring position against the Texans.
Eric Carrabelle: Yes, he will score. Sure, the Texans play strong defense. Allen cannot be defended on the goal line.
Pamela Maldonado: Yes. When Houston shuts down the pass near the goal line, Allen is usually the go-to guy.
Seth Walder: Yes. Allen is always a threat to score, but he may need to rely on his rushing ability more than usual against an elite Texans pass rush that can get behind him in a hurry. Plus, this is already a high-leverage season for the Bills — who still have a shot at the No. 1 seed if they can make the race — so they need every available lever to pull out a win, including relying on Allen’s legs.
Buffalo’s remaining schedule after Thursday’s game: @PIT, CIN, @NE, @CLE, PHI, NYJ
