Josh Allen is setting career highs in areas you don't want your quarterback to set personal records in. Although he hasn't doomed the Buffalo Bills just yet, he'll need to tighten up his passing attack quickly.
After being intercepted by Bradley Roby in the first half of Buffalo's Thanksgiving matchup with the New Orleans Saints, Allen stretched his streak of consecutive games with an interception to four, the longest of his career. He threw another pick on Buffalo's next drive to Kwon Alexander.
Josh Allen has thrown an interception in 4 straight games, that is the longest streak of his career.

Despite Allen's miscues, Buffalo has dominated the Saints so far, shutting them out in the first half and building on their lead to start the third quarter.
The 6-4 Bills are in the midst of a dog fight with the New England Patriots for the AFC East title. A win tonight would greatly help them. Allen is still among their Buffalo's players — and one of the best at his position in the league — but he has to find a way to cut back on throwing interceptions.
In five fewer games, Allen matched the amount of interceptions he threw last year. He's two away from matching the career-high mark he set his rookie year. However, Allen is also among the few quarterbacks to have tossed 20 touchdowns so far this season, and he added a few more to his total in this game.
