Allen smashed the previous standard bearers, becoming the first to reach 300 TDs in his 20s. Previously, Hall of Famer Peyton Manning, at 31 years old, 212 days, was the youngest. Aaron Rodgers, then with the Green Bay Packers, was the previous fastest at 134 games.
Entering Sunday, Allen had 220 career TD passes, 77 rushing scores and two TD receptions.
In just his eighth season, Allen is closing in on his sixth season with 40-plus offensive touchdowns, which would tie Rodgers for the most all time.
What sets Allen apart from his predecessors such as Manning, Rodgers and Hall of Famers Brett Favre and Dan Marino, who also reached 300 TDs in quick fashion, has been his nose for the end zone rushing the ball.
Allen became the all-time leader in rushing TDs by a QB earlier this season.
The reigning AP NFL MVP, Allen has reentered the MVP convo for this season in recent weeks, but he’s been piling on the historical achievements all year.
