Bills' Josh Allen ties a Tom Brady NFL record on historic leaderboard with Patrick Mahomes image

Josh Allen has never made a Super Bowl, but that's not because of how he performs in the playoffs.

The Buffalo Bills' superstar QB is one of the best playoff quarterbacks ever, by the numbers.

He proved that again on Sunday against the Jacksonville Jaguars. Allen moved up a chart that also includes Tom Brady and Patrick Mahomes.

Allen put together his fourth career playoff game with 300-plus total yards, three-plus total touchdowns and no turnoverers.

He has put those four such games together out of 14 playoff games.

He's tied for second all time, according to Carson Breber. Also with four such games: Tom Brady.

They are just ahead of Aaron Rodgers and Peyton Manning, who both had three.

The only guy ahead of Allen and Brady? Mahomes, who has five such games (in 21 tries).

That's a list of the greatest quarterbacks of this era.

Allen, as you can see, has played fewer playoff games to reach his total than any of the others.

Obviously, Allen would love to get to play more postseason games. He wants to get the Bills to the Super Bowl, and win it.

If he keeps playing as well as he did Sunday, they'll have a chance.
