Allen's late-game interception and limited mobility raise health concerns heading to LA.

Allen's final throw against New England was a head scratcher: down three with the clock on his side, he forced a throw that Craig Woodson picked off to end the game. Allen was 23-of-33 for 253 yards, a touchdown and an interception, plus a 2-yard sneak for a score. He also ran five times for four yards, avoiding contact and looking nothing like himself mobility-wise. On Thursday, Allen quickly dismissed the possibility of playing injured, but his movement suggests he may not be 100% healthy. Buffalo has seven giveaways in two games (five against the Chargers, two against New England). Against the Rams, their defense is stingy (second in completion rate allowed at 53.5%, first in yards per attempt allowed at 4.8) but not a takeaway machine. Allen's 39.4% play-action rate is second in the NFL, while Stafford's 22.5% ranks 31st, so Buffalo will lean on play-action. If Buffalo loses Monday, it is more likely to be because the Bills couldn't run the ball and gave it away than because the Rams took it.
