The Buffalo Bills defeated the Miami Dolphins 31-21 to get to 3-0 on the season, and now enter a mini-bye week before playing the New Orleans Saints in the second game of a three-game home stand.

It was a big game for Josh Allen, who surpassed Patrick Mahomes as the quickest player to reach 300 career touchdowns, doing so in 128 games (including playoffs) - Mahomes did it in 127. That wasn't the only milestone Allen caught Mahomes in, though.

Per ESPN, Allen now has 46 games of at least three total touchdowns, which ties Mahomes for the most in the NFL since 2018.

Allen and Mahomes are the two best quarterbacks in the NFL, and their numbers certainly showcase that. Allen has 264 regular season touchdowns since entering the league - Mahomes has 263. And it's more likely than not that we will see these two face off in the postseason again this season.
